This article aims to investigate the relationship between the language for specific purposes (LSP) approach to English teaching in high school vocational programs at vocational schools run by the São Paulo State government and the most appropriate choices for skill-based teaching. It focuses on the concept of needs analysis, as this is the differential of this approach. Part of a literature review and exploratory research through direct observation, it seeks to understand its variants, finally considering that its assumptions can go beyond LSP teaching.
Keywords: Professional education. Language Teaching. LSP Approach. Needs Analysis.
