Abstract

Given the recent proliferation and increased recognition of English for Specific Purposes (ESP), numerous private schools in Algeria have initiated programmes to provide ESP training in various fields. Nevertheless, it is important to acknowledge that the pedagogical endeavour of teaching ESP poses significant challenges for teachers. This qualitative study aims to explore the challenges faced by seven ESP educators teaching at two private schools in Algiers. The study relied on interviews as a research tool to gather in-depth information on the subject matter. The findings of this study may serve as a valuable theoretical framework for addressing major issues in ESP teaching within private educational institutions.
