Consequently, the school is designed to
provide a certain level of proficiency in a
foreign language, which could allow to continue
its study during the period of university and
postgraduate
education,
as
well
as
independently. The success of training largely
depends on the methodology of a foreign
language teacher, on his ability to use various
modern methods
in the context of solving
specific educational problems.
The methodology of teaching foreign
languages is a system of knowledge about the
laws of the process of teaching a foreign
language and about ways of influencing this
process in order to optimize it. The
methodology of teaching a foreign language
reveals and substantiates
the patterns of
teaching a foreign language.
Historically, two functionally different
methods have developed: general and specific
methods. The general methodology, as a rule, is
devoted to the study of the patterns and
characteristics of
the process of teaching a
foreign language, regardless of what foreign
language is in question. So, the principles of the
selection of educational material,
the ratio of
oral and written speech at various stages of the
lesson, etc. in equivalent learning conditions
will be the same for any of the Western
European languages studied in the general
education schools of our country. However,
knowledge of the general laws of teaching
foreign language turns out to be insufficient
when the teacher
is faced with the specific
features of a particular foreign language. Thus,
the methods of mastering the verbal forms of
Continuous are specific only for the English
language, cumbersome models of composition,
the declension of nouns and adjectives are
typical for the German language, and the
methods
of forming numerals, the use of
diacritics, the abbreviation of the article, and
the presence of the partitive article are in
French. Significant differences are observed in
phonetics: for English, triphthongs and
diphthongs
are specific, for French - nasal
vowels. As experience and practice show, the
teacher needs to develop and implement such
techniques, methods and forms of teaching that
contributed to the rapid mastery of the students
corresponding specific phenomena in a
