This paper describes a program at the Technical University of Budapest which is designed primarily to teach scientific English while at the same time improving everyday conversational English. The program combines the traditional textbook method and a new method whereby students in the first term read and translate technical material on a homework basis, and in the second term present lectures to the class on topics of their own choosing, technical and otherwise. It is emphasized that this method is of benefit not only to the student, but also to the teacher, for both improve their proficiency with technical English. (AM)
