Abstract: Upper-level English classes often pose some problems for teachers. At some universities or at the institutions, upper-level students learn English by using the technical language of their degree program, such as law, medicine, engineering, business, information technology, or some other fields known as English for Specific Purposes (ESP), this type of English instruction integrates the specialized subject matter of the field into the classroom. ESP requires the acquisition of highly specialized terminology and the ability to explain formal processes as students are prepared for acquiring the high-level competence that they will have to demonstrate in their chosen profession. This advanced material is often difficult and challenging which make students become easily nonresponsive. This article presents possible good solutions: that is task-based learning approach (TBL), an overview TBL and highlights its advantages over the more traditional Present, Practice, Produce (PPP) approach.
Key words: TBL approach, PPP approach, experiential learning.
