Abstract
The paper will discuss the problem of subject knowledge of ESP instructors. In ESP, the subject-area content the instructor teaches should serve the purposes of language learners. The content is expected to be relevant to learners’ goals and careers. Both narrow (domain-specific language and related tasks) or wide (general, common-core language functions) approach to ESP have their advantages and disadvantages – and both of them put specific demands on the instructor. One of the problems they pose is how much subject knowledge is enough for an ESP instructor.
