The study of English language as a foreign language for the Geography students in the universities of Romania has an important role in students' professional development and in the integration of Romanian academic education in the international context. The implementation of the Bologna Process' international programmes in "Alexandru Ioan Cuza" University of Ia?i (including the Department of Geography), the exchange of students and teaching staff among universities from different countries, the worldwide dissemination of geographic research results require better knowledge of English language in the field of Geography. In such a context, in the Geography Department of "Alexandru Ioan Cuza" University of Ia?i, a new approach on teaching English language has been implemented since 2014, ELG (English Language for Geographers), a unique approach in Romania. This paper presents the characteristics and the advantages of this new way of teaching English language, materialised in the publication, in 2017, of a textbook for the Geography students, "English Language for Geography Students" (Daniela Larion), the first textbook of this kind in Romania.
