English for Specific Purpose appeared due to an urgent demand for an international language worldwide in the fields of Business, Trading, Medicine, Law, Tourism and since the increasing awareness of General English Curriculum does not fit the learners’ specific needs, especially in higher education. Designing an ESP course is a never – ending process which requires permanent improvement and changing in the syllabus, design and ESP teaching materials used within classrooms. The aim of this study was to analyze the challenges that arise in teaching English for Medical Students by examining the ESP absolute and variable characteristics. Some practical suggestions are also given in order to overcome these problems.
