Abstract

Studying the subject of Legal English is mandatory for the students of Law. Few of the important
units of the subject of Legal English are the unit of Labour Law and the unit of Employment Rights.
The emphasis of the units is a brief introduction to the nature of these types of law and a presentation,
explanation, translation and practice of the relevant vocabulary. The paper „Methodology of Teaching
the Labour Law Vocabulary in the Academic Subject of Legal English” deals with the various teaching
methods used in the English for Specific Purposes classroom when teaching the vocabulary relevant to
the subject matter of Labour Law and Employment Rights. The stress is on the types of exercises (vocabulary,
reading and speaking), as well as the methods of conducting them in the classroom.

Legal English, Labor Law, Employment Rights, methodology of teaching English for Specific
Purposes.
