Abstract
The role of textbooks for English language teaching (ELT) in a vocational school in Indonesia is indisputable. They facilitate the teaching-learning process and source of skills development for the students. However, the ELT textbook for vocational school still received little attention since most ELT government-approved books still focus on general English with little attention to the specialized skills development on the expertise. Vocational school varies in the expertise area; therefore, the students need intensive and extensive exposure to English for Specific Purposes (ESP). The ELT, then, should be based on the learners' needs. This paper discusses the literature review as a methodology for conducting research and offers ESP textbook development issues. The data were taken from some relevant references. The finding discussed a justification for developing ESP textbook in vocational school, and the criteria for textbook selection, material development, and development planning. Moreover, the materials reflect the authenticity of real-world language and enable students to rehearse language outside the classroom, activate the acquisition process, focus on the linguistic system, and manipulate on a particular linguistic feature and also on exchange meaning. Those issues need to be covered to informthe stakeholders on the significance ofESP textbooks, which will enable the English teacher to equip the students with the specific English skills that will be useful in their future careers. Keywords English language teaching (ELT), ELT textbook development, English for Specific Purposes (ESP) textbook.
