Abstract
Methodology of teaching English for Specific Purposes today is often referred to as eclectic, drawing from various available, established resources and imparting personal lecturer’s standpoints on how and why to teach. Hereby, we advocate and illustrate the use of Socratic method in teaching ESP, with the main arguments addressing the fact that its application at once enhances students’ disciplinary genre communicative skills, the very domain knowledge, and higher order thinking, transversal skills, all directly relevant for their designated professional environment. Socratic method of intellectual exchange also allows for an overall mental and psychological development, strengthening students’ self-awareness and self-confidence. All these advantageous features contribute to students’ success and overall well-being in their professional and scientific environment.
