Abstract. This article examines modern methods of teaching English for
Specific Purposes (ESP) in higher and vocational education. It highlights the
significance of learner-centered instruction, needs analysis, communicative language
teaching, task-based learning, project-based learning, digital technologies, artificial
intelligence, authentic materials, and competency-based assessment in developing
learners' professional communicative competence. The study emphasizes that ESP
enables students to acquire language skills directly related to their academic and
occupational fields, thereby increasing their employability and professional
effectiveness.
