Abstract

Relevance. In today’s world, global communication and international cooperation are becoming increasingly important, and therefore knowledge of a foreign language is a key factor in overcoming language barriers and effective communication between different cultures, which makes this study relevant.

Purpose. The purpose of this study was to reveal and investigate current trends and strategies of teaching foreign languages aimed at maximising learning efficiency.

Methodology. The study employed the methods of analysis, systematisation, and generalisation.

Results. The study examined various aspects of effective methods of teaching foreign languages in the modern educational environment, such as Content and Language Integrated Learning (CLIL), immersion, content-based learning, suggestion therapy, the use of computer technology in teaching, flipped classroom, and methods of creating Mind Maps. It was found that these methods allow for effective foreign language teaching in the modern educational environment. This study also revealed the specific features of using innovative technologies, virtual reality, and their contribution to improving foreign language acquisition in the educational process, as the modern educational environment requires the use of the latest technologies to improve access to knowledge and individualise learning.

Conclusions. As a result of this study, it was possible to investigate the psychological aspect of foreign language learning, focusing on the role of motivation and emotional state for the successful acquisition of language skills. The findings of this study can be used to create, develop, and improve curricula in the field of foreign language teaching.
