Abstract: This study aimed to examine the differences between English language instructors and English for Academic Purposes (EAP) instructors regarding their beliefs about teaching competence and participation in professional development. It also explored students’ attitudes toward the classroom practices of English for Specific Academic Purposes (ESAP) instructors. In addition, it investigated whether male and female EAP instructors differed in their views on teaching competence, professional development, and classroom practices. Participants included 80 instructors (40 English language instructors and 40 ESAP instructors) and 80 undergraduate students from various academic disciplines in universities in Zahedan. A purposive sampling method was used to select instructors with relevant ESAP teaching experience. Students were selected randomly to provide feedback on classroom practices. Instructors completed questionnaires on teaching competence and professional development, and students responded to a classroom practices questionnaire. Statistical analysis showed significant differences between English language and ESAP instructors in areas such as receptive skills, grammar and vocabulary, translation, feedback, error correction, classroom strategies, curriculum, and materials. However, there were no significant gender-based differences in instructors’ views on professional development, teaching competence, or classroom performance. The findings underline the need to support EAP instructors through targeted pre-service and in-service training programs and workshops. These initiatives can help improve their teaching skills and better prepare them for ESAP instruction in university settings. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
