TEACHING ESP TO STUDENTS IN MECHANICAL ENGINEERING VIA INTERACTIVE PLATFORMS

Abstract

Teaching English for Specific Purposes is a challenging endeavor, especially during a pandemic that forced a new teaching/learning paradigm. The present paper aims to highlight the online tools and platforms that have been useful in order to provide an efficient and enjoyable learning experience. Considering the learning styles of the students and the skills needed for future engineers to become competitive on the labor market, we have comprised a series of sample activities that may be considered examples of good practice.
