Abstract
Social and emotional learning (SEL) is an essential component of education and personal development. SEL Programs, the positive effects of which have been proven in many ways by scientific research. This article examines the contents of the Food and Beverages Department Vocational English book used in vocational schools for 10th-grade students. The focus is on the presence of social-emotional learning (SEL) content and the book's strengths and limitations in addressing SEL competencies within the context of the food and beverage industry. A content analysis reveals that while the book includes some SEL content, there are notable gaps in the coverage of SEL competencies. It adequately addresses self-awareness and self-management, but provides limited attention to social awareness, relationship skills, and responsible decision-making. The book offers opportunities for active listening through listening activities and incorporates visual aids with pictures of real people. However, it lacks speaking activities, project work, and research opportunities. The findings highlight the need for a more comprehensive and integrated approach to SEL in the book, which can better prepare students for success in the food and beverage industry by strengthening their social and emotional skills.
