Using content analysis, researchers can quantify and analyze the presence, meanings, and relationships of such certain words, themes, or concepts. The first experimental group divided to sub group one in which instruction and tasks was through using guessing strategies, subgroup two was conducted through using app dictionary the second group divided to third subgroup used in which used word recognition strategies, and fourth subgroup conducted through app dictionary.Content analysis is a research tool used to determine the presence of certain words, themes, or concepts within some given qualitative data (i.e. After pretest at first session and then 14 weeks' treatment process then in the 16th session posttest was administered. Participants were chosen from Science and Applied University of FARHANG and HONAR (Culture and Fine Art) in Qazvin. The participants of this research were 30 out of 40 persons, 15 in each of two experimental groups in which each group was divided into two subgroups, 8 or 7 persons in each subgroup. This research tried to study the impact of Scaffolding ESP learners to use strategies like using guessing, word recognition strategies, and using app dictionaries as a mediator tool to scaffold ESP/EAP learners as a supportive means of learning through Vygotsky's theory to enhance ESP expressions. The philosophy underpinning this approach is substantially explained in the writing of Brunner built from the works of Piaget and Vygotsky (Pinter, 2006: 12). Furthermore scaffolding through many other strategies perceived as the strategy used through which by the teachers, Sukyadi and Hasanah (2012) believe that, to facilitate learners. "ESP vocabulary always presents a major linguistic obstacle as Tskhvitava (2016) believes, to non-native English-speaking students (p. The paper concludes with the proposition of two frames in applied linguistics, each with specific concerns and possibilities: a macro applied linguistic frame which considers applications of language within the large area of interdisciplinary language-related studies, and a micro applied linguistic frame which considers pedagogic and educational concerns and is reserved for ELT. Applied linguistics incorporates English language teaching or language in the classroom perspective and with the same clarity and precision offers through disciplined and methodological enquiry a macro frame that incorporates all aspects of language in communication. The position adopted in this paper is that applied linguistics is not an extension of English language teaching. The conceptual premise is addressed with respect to the changes in the linguistic theory. The historical development of the field and the main changes affecting its focus are correlated with the global spread of English and the ensuing concerns. The current crisis of identity and boundary between applied linguistics and English language teaching is traced to historical and conceptual premises. Set against the theoretical frames of post-modernist and post structuralist perspectives, the discipline of applied linguistics presents a wide spectrum of perceptions and models, ranging from the restricted to the open field. The paper inspects radical ideas on applied linguistics and the discipline's connection with linguistics and English language teaching, through an examination of conflicting definitions and contemporary research interests. This paper examines debate in applied linguistics stemming from disputes surrounding its nature, scope and relationship with theoretical linguistics and English language teaching.
