The application of genre analysis to language teaching has so far been mainly restricted to ESP. This paper considers the application of the techniques and results of genre analysis to more broadly-based courses, in particular those for learners aiming to use English in professional settings. The paper argues for an educational, or process, approach to the teaching of genres, as opposed to the training, or product, approach mainly employed until now. The paper examines distinctive features of professional genres in order to illustrate some of the types of variation which genres are subject to, and which learners need to be made aware of. A number of genre analysis activities are presented to demonstrate how learners can be taught to approach, adapt to, and ultimately acquire new genres.
