П Abstract The current study aims at investigating the needs of the learners in tourism sector (case of travel agency). The main problematic of this work is how English language is considered in the private schools especially in tourism institutions. It implies that there are many causes behind this problematic. For example, the lack of ESP teachers at these institutions (the Chamber of Economic and Commerce of Oran). This research requires gathering data from specific documents in order to arrive with complete analyses of the importance of English for tourism. The required data was gathered by the classroom observation, teacher’ questionnaire and students’ questionnaire which are administrated to the first year superior technician’s certificate in travel agency learners at the chamber of economic and commerce in Oran during the academic year 2018-2019. There were sufficient findings about the neglect of the needs in teaching English module. The hypothesis adopted in this research confirms that teacher in this institution consider a general English language teacher without any training in the field of ESP. The focus of this work is to demonstrate that both of the institution and teacher ignore the needs of their learners, which is the major element in ESP teaching. As a suggestion, Students’ needs should be fully analysed before starting the teaching process.

It became the official language in the most of the countries around the world. Language has great importance in all most all the fields, especially in the field of tourism. Tourism is one of the enormous fields and most important in each country, it is the major force in any economy in the world; tourism is one of the sectors of the economy that has a global importance, in spite of that tourism is not a recent phenomenon. Since tourism is concerned with the movement of the people all around the world then it is so important to find a common language to facilitate the negotiation between those people, English as an international language and the official language in large number of countries makes this negotiation accessible. Personally, I have chosen to deal with ESP for tourism industry because I always been influenced by working in the field of tourism but I never had a chance to do it, since now I am specializing in English language and as already know that English language is important in the field of tourism then why not dealing with it. I have found that there are few studies are conducted on this issue in Algeria, based on this my research is started. The aim of this research, then, is to make an analysis of the present status of English language in the field of tourism in Algeria, also to know if the English taught in tourism field is considered specific or general. Another issue on which my research is raised is to investigate if the teachers (specialists) in the field of tourism take the first absolute characteristics (need analysis) of English for specific purposes into account. Accordingly, the main issues of the present study revolve around the following research questions. - Which approach is followed in teaching English to Algerian students at tourism institutes and does the choice of techniques help those students to meet their future workplaces needs? - Does teachers asks for the needs of their learners before starting courses? This research leads to put the following hypothesises: -1-

The same chapter describes the language policy of Arabization, which has dominated Algeria‟s linguistic situation since independence from France in 1962. In the second chapter, this thesis presents a theoretical framework for the study of the spread of English in Algeria, where this language has been making inroads. It is argued that English should play a positive role in promoting a peaceful linguistic environment in the North African country. In the third and final chapter, the above- mentioned framework is applied to Algeria‟s context, analyzing this environment through the lenses of the theoretical considerations suggested by the framework.

Algeria has a variety of landscapes and has a lot to offer to travelers . You can reach the country through a short trip from Europe, but the difference between the two continents is noticeable immediately and provides a sense of adventure and challenge for tourists. And it had visited Algeria 2.45 million out of 1.32 billion tourists in the world in 2017, which shows that Algeria did not pay much attention to the arena sector compared to what is available to some of the neighboring countries such as Tunisia and Morocco . Key words: tourism, investment, regionalization plan. Z30 ؛ Z32؛ Z38 ؛ JEL classification codes: Z39 1. INTRODUCTION All the statistics and indicators of the global economic institutions confirm that the tourism industry is of great importance in the economy, as its contribution was estimated at 10% of the GDP in 2017, which amounted to 8.27 trillion dollars, which is much better than what is achieved by the auto and vehicle industry, the agricultural sector and banking services. By looking at the natural, historical and cultural tourism components that Algeria enjoys, it can make it a destination and a tourist destination with distinction if it is well exploited and invested, so that the tourism sector is a better alternative or option for hydrocarbons.

The State then committed itself to a strategy for the development of the sustainable tourism sector, which is reflected in the work we will present. This work deals with the objectives of the SDAT (Master Plan for Tourism Development in Algeria), which is a key and essential tool to recognize the potentialities offered by Algeria, as well as the impacts of its tourist sites on the advancement and establishment of a sustainable tourism culture in our country. Through this work, we will try to demonstrate that tourism in Algeria is no longer a choice but an obvious one, and that it is concentrated in a territory that occupies a central space in the tourist

  • Tourism in Algeria Between the Reality and Challenges
    Tourism in Algeria between the reality and challenges By: Lamia Oudaifia Badji Mokhtar University –Annaba- Abstract: Tourism in Algeria contributes only about 1 percent of Algeria’s GDP, this due to its sufferance from a deficit in terms of hotel facilities, food quality, qualification of the industry, a deficiency in the production and optimization of the tourism product. In both public and private sectors, the Algerian officials were slow to react to changes in tourism market. In contrast, Algeria has huge tourist potentialities and occupies a special place on the world tourist market. Algeria is a mosaic of culture, history and traditions, indeed many Mediterranean civilizations occupied this territory and left their tracks. Between these two sides of tourism in Algeria, can it change and increase its participation in GDP? What are the touristic opportunities that we have? What strategies the government should take to change this situation? Keywords: tourism, opportunities, Algeria, strategy. الملخص: السياحة في الجزائر تساهم فقط حوالي 1٪ من الناتج المحلي اﻹجمالي في الجزائر، وهذا بسبب معاناتها من العجز من حيث ال امرفق الفندقية، ونوعية اﻷكل، وتأهيل هذه الصناعة، ونقص في اﻹنتاج وتحسين المنتج السياحي. في كل من القطاعين العام والخاص، كان المسؤولون الج ازئريون بطيئ اﻻستجابة للاتغيرت في سوق السياحة. في المقابل، الج ازئر لديها إمكانيات سياحية هائلة، وتحتل مكانة خاصة في السوق السياحية العالمية. الج زائر هي عبارة عن فسيفساء من الثقافة والتاريخ والتقاليد، واحتلت العديد من االحضارت المتوسطية في الواقع هذه اﻷرض وترك آثارهم. بين جانبي السياحة في االجزئر، فهل يمكن تغيير وزيادة مشاركتها في الناتج المحلي اﻹجمالي؟ ما هي الفرص السياحية التي لدينا؟ ما هي اﻻست ارتيجيات التي يتعين على الحكومة اتخاذها لتغيير هذا الوضع؟ الكلمات المفتاحية: سياحة، فرص، الجزائرا، استرتيجية.
