| Research Abstract |
The aim of the research is to develop a new English education system for first year students majoring in engineering at institutes of technology in the Tokai area. We created an English teachers' network for TEEE (Tokai English Education for Engineering Students), in order to clarify current problems, to develop a new methodology, and to apply it to our students. Results of the study suggested that teaching ESP (English for Specific Purposes) through the TEEE system can be effective not only for graduate students but also for first year students, since students are generally highly motivated to study science and engineering although their technical and English knowledge is very limited.
