Sažetak
Accuracy and fluency are two factors which can determine the success of English language students in the future. Accuracy is the ability to produce correct sentences using correct grammar and vocabulary. Fluency is the ability to read, speak, or write easily, smoothly, and expressively. In other words, the speaker can read, understand and respond in a language clearly and concisely while relating meaning and context. Fluency generally increases as learners progress from beginning to advanced readers and writers. Language teachers who concentrate on fl uency help their students to express themselves in fluent English. They pay more attention to meaning and context and are less concerned with grammatical errors. Balancing the accuracy and fluency should be the main aim of us as the English teachers. Teaching English for Specific Purposes (ESP) has always been a challenge for language teachers. This paper tries to answer the question which of these language capabilities are more important for the students.
