The method used in this study is research and development methods or better known as Research and Development (R & D). Based on the results of preliminary observations in ESP Geography learning, it has not yet reached conformity. The percentage of student responses reached 57.4% with an inappropriate category because the learning process is still general. The learning model resulted from the development has been improved and adapted to the learning environment and emphasizes the Reading Guide learning model. Thus, the results of the second stage, most students (85%) give a positive response to the learning process of reading. For this reason, it can be concluded that the description of the ESP Geography learning model results is good enough even if with improvements.
