One of the main tasks of teaching a foreign language is the formation of communicative competence. This concept was introduced by the american linguist D. Himes. He believed that language proficiency is not limited to knowledge of the vocabulary and grammar, but presupposes a clear idea of in what speech conditions certain words and grammatical constructions can or should be used. In the process of distance learning, the formation of communicative competence becomes much more difficult and requires the search for new teaching aids. A similar tool is the «Yeralash» film magazine. Short authentic stories are understandable sometimes even without words. On their basis, it is easy to introduce new and repeat the already learned vocabulary and phraseology of various thematic groups, to study grammar. In addition, the plots of the magazine allow you to analyze a specific speech situation (for example, a dialogue in a lesson, a conversation on the phone, a conversation between friends): to determine the topic of communication, the communicative intention of the addressee and the addressee; evaluate the appropriate language tools. And then build your own statement: formulate the main idea of the plot, express your opinion, substantiate it, etc. This thought is not completely new. However, the study of literature, methodological publications (Kazakova Yu. V., Kashpireva T.B., Kigel Tali, Solovyova T.A., Khramchenko T.A.) made it possible to conclude that there are not so many such studies. At the same time, there is a lack of developments specifically for the initial stage of studying RFL on specific topics of "Yeralash", and not general reflections and conclusions about the use of issues of this journal as methodological material. This article attempts to partially fill this gap.

The current paper discusses possibilities for school students to successfully pass TORFL-I/B1, TORFL-II/B2 and TORFL-III/C1. The relevance of this article is determined by the fact that despite Russian as a foreign (second) language has been taught within the framework of the TORFL system for more than two decades, there is a shortage of methodological material aimed at preparing school students for TORFL. In addition, the issue of choosing the level of testing in accordance with the level of Russian language proficiency and taking into account age specifics is not sufficiently covered in Russian academic literature. The aim of this paper is to define age reference marks for school students who plan to pass TORFL. The materials to review and analyse were the works of Russian and foreign researchers in the field of foreign (second) language proficiency, language development of children and adolescents, assessment of school students communicative competence, language assessment, and correlation of these data with the requirements for completing tasks of the TORFL-I/B1, TORFL-II/B2, TORFL-III/C1 Writing subtests selected as an example. The paper has resulted in providing recommendations on the choice of examination level for senior and junior school students, within the framework of TORFL-I/B1, TORFL-II/B2, TORFL-III/C1, which can also be used in the development of training courses in Russian as a foreign language for schools. The authors concluded that there is need to develop a new methodological area in testing of Russian as a foreign language system capable to provide guidelines and recommendations for preparing school students for examinations, and designing TORFL training courses and teaching materials according to the school students age.

Today experts with a high level of proficiency in a foreign language are considered in demand in the labour market. The level of foreign language proficiency is confirmed by a high test result of international exams in a foreign language. The essay is a mandatory part of international English language exams such as TOEFL, IELTS, and Cambridge Advanced English. We examined the requirements and assessment criteria for the essay writing exam task. The task assesses the level of speech skills formation necessary to create your own pieces of writing in a foreign language. As part of the research, we developed a technology for teaching writing based on a product-oriented approach. According to the technology we have identified the following stages of text production: task orientation, text planning, text writing, and text self-editing. We have also proposed a set of exercises aimed at developing following skills: task understanding, formulating the author’s point of view and its proving with relevant examples, planning a cohesive and coherent text, text division into paragraphs, highlighting of the paragraph’s main idea, development of the idea in the text, expressing ideas in the text logically in accordance with the rhetorical structure of English essay, usage of lexical cohesive means, text self-editing. This technology was tested during experimental training; its results prove the effectiveness of the proposed technology for teaching essay writing according to international English language exams requirements.

This article is devoted to the study of the conditions for the formation of paremiological competence in a foreign language lesson using mobile applications. Their usage allows to improve the quality of the process of learning foreign language thanks to the elements of interactivity. Mobile applications provide the ability of flexible adaptation of educational content to the individual needs of the teacher. Using the mobile application called ‘Quizlet’ is one of the most effective ways to form the paremiological component of communicative competence in schoolchildren at the initial stage of education. The success of using this mobile application in teaching English vocabulary is confirmed by the results of the pedagogical experiment.

The article deals with the implementation of communicative exercises in foreign language classes to improve the foreign language speaking competence of prospective teachers. The relevance of the article is determined by the need to consider the outlined problem for increasing the level of English language proficiency in order to personal and career prospects of prospective teachers. The purpose of the article is a theoretical and practical justification for the use of communicative exercises in the study of English in foreign language classes for prospective teachers in higher education. To achieve this goal it is necessary to solve the following tasks: 1) to analyze the efficiency of using communicative tasks to improve students’ foreign language speaking competence; 2) to offer exercises for communication, which provide for the creation of life situations of foreign language communication; 3) to substantiate the efficiency of using these exercises to improve foreign language speaking competence of future teachers. To achieve this purpose the following research methods are used in the scientific article: generalization, analysis and synthesis, descriptive method, which allow to consider in detail the proposed problem and come to important conclusions. It is determined that the specificity of learning a foreign language is to create an artificial language environment, which is absent in practice in most cases. Foreign language space is extremely important for the realization of one of the factors influencing the acquisition of a foreign language – the speed of establishing associative language connections. It is found out that in the communicative environment both the conscious training of vocabulary and grammar, and the necessary language tools accumulate during communicative activities intuitively. The speed of appropriate language reactions, a sense of language are developed in this activity (phonetic, lexical, grammatical aspects). The permanent search for new teaching aids, the development of more effective methods of work are of practical importance for increasing the student’s motivation to learn a foreign language and automate the experience of its using. The proposed types of communication exercises create the most adequate conditions for the formation of language skills, stimulate the mechanisms of involuntary memorization, as well as provide for the solution of certain methodological, linguistic and psychological problems.

The initial stage of mastering a foreign language resembles the process of a native language formation, although there is a significant difference between them. It should be emphasized that the main engine that encourages a child to master the language is the vital need for communication, the need to solve communicative tasks, if necessary. So, all aspects of learning a foreign language should be subordinated to communicative goals. Communicative competence is integrated in its content and consists of three main types of competencies: speech, language, socio-cultural, which, in turn, also include a number of competencies. Integration of a foreign language into all types of children's activities ensures the implementation of communicative competence. Play activity allows you to implement a communicative approach in learning a foreign language at ease, through interpersonal activities of children. In the preschooler's productive activities, a foreign language becomes a means of expressing emotional experiences. In educational activities, the communicative approach implies both the assimilation of the rules and their practical usage, which occurs on the conscious and subconscious levels. The independent activities of children help to unlock the personal potential of children, is a means of socializing the child and helps to realize communicative speech competence.

The article contains a comparative analysis of PPP and TBLT approaches to the foreign language learning including the detailed description of the main stages of teaching and lessons planning in the framework of each approach; the advantages and disadvantages of both approaches are also considered in the article. It is also emphasized that using TBLT approach in groups of students from non-linguistic universities with a low level of foreign language proficiency (A2) is rather difficult. In such situations authors recommend considering the traditional PPP method, which allows practicing and fixing the necessary speech patterns.
