Eight males and females Tourism students and their English teacher in a private Vocational Secondary School in Surakarta were purposively selected as the participants of this study. They were invited to take part in a semistructured interview. The findings showed that English for Tourism emphasizes more on building students’ speaking skills. All participants share their positive perceptions on teaching speaking for the Tourism Program. The students perceive that speaking is crucial for them since it strongly affects their future career. Moreover, there are several difficulties faced by the students during the learning process including grammar, pronunciation, vocabulary, and content. There are also some challenges such as lacking confidence, low motivation, and limited learning materials. However, both teacher and students are actively involved in overcoming those problems. This study shed light on the importance of teacher-students collaboration. Therefore, it is suggested that they should work collaboratively to improve the quality of ESP programs.  \nKeywords: ESP, English for Tourism, Teaching Speaking  \nA. Introduction  \nThe tourism industry is one of the largest components of global economy. It grows rapidly as the result of global needs. The accelerated growth of the tourism industry affects the use of English as an International Language. The employees of tourism companies have to master English well since they must communicate efficiently and effectively with foreign customers. As reported by Prachanant (2012), Pinelopi (2015), and Li (2016) in their studies about language use in the tourism industry, speaking receives more attention in exploring students’ language skills. It means that speaking skill is very crucial for Tourism students. Those phenomena lead to the belief that teaching English for Spesific Purposes (ESP) is very important in order to develop students’ English skills for Tourism purposes.  \nThe term ESP is defined as “goal oriented language learning” (Robinson, 1991) . Hutchinson & Waters (1992) define ESP as an approach to language learning which is based on the learners’ needs. It means that the contents and the methods of ESP teaching are based on the needs of the students. It is in line with Xhaferi (2010) who states that ESP courses deal mostly with “language in context” rather than “language usage” (grammar rules or ways of structuring the language) . The skills taught and developed in the classroom are those the learners exactly need. It can be concluded that ESP is an approach to language learning which is designed to meet the specific needs of the learners in certain disciplines or professions.  \nIn any case, the implementation of teaching ESP in Vocational Secondary Schools (VSS) is not easy. Moreover, for non-English speaking countries like Indonesia, it becomes more challenging. Many students still lack competence to communicate effectively using English. It can be understood because English is only used in the school environment. Furthermore, the materials or textbooks used in all programs are the same. There are no specifications regarding the materials and skills that should","cbCaiiYCimSXMcBg","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaiiYCimSXMcBg","pdf",447070,12,"English","en",105,"# Abstract\n# A.
