This paper strives to show the challenges that two ESP teachers faced in designing the most adequate syllabus for English for the Humanities and Social Sciences first year undergraduate students at the Centre for Foreign Languages (University of Zadar) within the given teaching context and in reference to its students’ learning needs. The paper also shows how the challenges were approached and tackled. This paper can have implications for ESP/EAP teachers considering course development, syllabus design and materials development.
