| Summary: | This paper is premised on the English for Academic Purposes approach whereby language learning is
contextualised within the learners’ domains of study. A study involving 20 students examined the ‘discourse

EAP approach, which makes the language learning experience more relevant and meaningful, thereby increasing
the learners’ motivation. |
