The article deals with the problem of formation of professional competence of students in the process of teaching a foreign language at non-linguistic faculties of higher educational establishments in Belarus. As the practice of teaching a foreign language at none-linguistic high school shows, the level of an oral foreign language proficiency of future specialists in the field of professional communication is not sufficient: it does not provide students ready to cooperate actively with professional foreign language environment.
The authors emphasize that, until recently, in the teaching process only one function – informative – was basically implemented, and in a limited way, but for successful communication with their foreign partners in the professional sphere specialists need to improve their skills, especially in understanding oral speech, speaking and writing. For this reason, foreign language skills are most successfully realized as a part of business professional and communicative competence. Thus it is recommended and methodically justified to provide professional and communicative training in a foreign language, which implies professionally-focused training of students in foreign language communication, which is now recognized as a priority in education.
In the result of the analysis of various foreign language teaching models, conducted on the basis of Belarusian none-linguistic high schools, on the compliance of selecting the content and organization of teaching materials (texts, assignments and exercises), forms and methods of educational work of students and the methodologies used by teachers, it was concluded that an important place in the course of professionally oriented education should be allocated to the tasks of development of personal socially valuable qualities of a future specialist. Therefore, the transition from pedagogical influence to pedagogical interaction is one of the main conditions for search and introduction of effective methods of foreign languages teaching.
To conclude, we should say that a new paradigm of relations within the educational process requires innovative technologies that could change the principles of educational process towards student-centered teaching; contribute to the formation of students’ self-analysis and self-assessment skills, develop their communicative skills, teamwork. According to the authors a model of professionally oriented foreign languages teaching should be developed (taking into account the positive aspects of existing models), which will ensure the success and effectiveness of the language training of none-linguistic students of universities.References
