The integration of English language instruction with economic discourse is essential for preparing economics students to participate in global professional environments. This article explores pedagogical approaches for merging English for Specific Purposes (ESP) with economics education, focusing on Content-Based Instruction (CBI), Task-Based Learning (TBL), and the use of authentic materials. These methods enhance both language proficiency and economic literacy, allowing students to develop the communicative and analytical skills necessary to thrive in international economic contexts. The article also discusses challenges, such as varying English proficiency levels and interdisciplinary collaboration, offering solutions for more effective teaching practices.
