The knowledge of English is very important and essential in the modern world, as the result English for Specific Purposes (ESP) has grown to become one of the most prominent areas of English Language Teaching (ELT) today due to the effects of globalization within industry and academia. Needs analysis is fundamental to ESP teaching. Accordingly, to design an efficient ESP course it is essential to assess target needs, and to compare the difference between the current situation and the target situation. The Teach Test Teach (TTT) approach allows teachers to analyse the specific needs of learners and address these needs suitably. Review of recent research and publications. The problem of various approaches to ELT was studied by foreign scientists and methodologists including: D. Riddell, C. Lindsay, J. Harmer. However, little research has been done in the field of using the TTT approach to teaching ESP to future economists. Objective of the paper is to clarify the essence of the TTT approach, consider its advantages and study the ways it can be used to teach ESP to future economists.
