This article considers the experiential learning approach developed with the aim of teaching English for professional communication to students of Ukrainian tertiary educational institutions who major in different non-linguistic fields (Economics and Business, Technology, Psychology, etc.) but study English as a mandatory course at their univer- sities so they may use the language for furthering their professional development and career opportunities. The suggested experiential learning approach is based on such structuring of a university EFL/ESP course that students’ learning activities start to model their future professional activities and professional communication, these being conducted not in learners’ first language but in English.
