Abstract

This study aims to identify and analyze the needs of ESP learning materials in nursing students. To find out these needs, needs to be done needs analysis so that students get the material needed to support their learning process at this time or in a future career. The study was conducted with a qualitative approach and descriptive method. The research sample was nursing student class P17C who was taking an English course. Sampling uses a purposive random sampling technique. The research instrument used a questionnaire. Data were analyzed with descriptive techniques in the form of numbers and percentages. The results show that the needs of nursing students for ESP English courses vary so that it can be concluded that they need English not only for their current needs, but also for the benefit of future professional careers. It is therefore recommended that ESP English language teachers or interested parties can accommodate the needs of students, and always do a needs analysis because the needs of ESP learners are always changing.
