SUSTAINABILITY AWARENESS IN ESP.

Content and Language Integrated Learning (CLIL) is applied in the English for Specific Purposes (ESP) classrooms to develop students' linguistic competence. The core of CLIL lessons is a selected topic from several sources (websites, magazines, video materials). While learning about something new, ESP students also acquire language skills. Sustainable tourism education (STE) with its focus on social, cultural, and environmental impacts of tourism has been part of the curriculum at the College of Tourism in Belgrade. This paper will analyse the effectiveness of CLIL methods incorporating STE texts in teaching ESP and verify the results in students based on their answers written in the questionnaire. The main goal of the authors is to demonstrate that this approach to STE and ESP teaching can be used to raise ecological awareness in students and promote sustainability during English language courses, the extent of which is presented in the paper's results and conclusions.
