This article explores innovative approaches in teaching English for Specific Purposes (ESP) to journalism students in Uzbekistan. The study focuses on modern pedagogical methods aimed at developing students’ professional communicative competence, critical thinking, and media-related language skills. Special attention is given to the use of interactive technologies, project-based learning, digital media resources, and communicative teaching methods in ESP classes. The article also analyzes the challenges faced by teachers and students in the process of ESP instruction and highlights effective strategies for improving English language proficiency among future journalists. The findings demonstrate that innovative approaches significantly increase students’ motivation, engagement, and practical language use in professional contexts.
