The second is to focus on the current state situation of LSP teaching - as an integral part of vocational training - in Hungary. Furthermore, how an LSP teacher should respond to labour market expectations.The third is to report the findings of a survey planned, executed and analysed by the author. The survey is concerned with how the average Hungarian company (employer) sees the importance of linguistic and LSP competence.
