Abstract
Relevance. The relevance of the subject matter is related to the growing interest in the study of Turkic languages among the English-speaking audience, due to globalisation and the expansion of cultural and economic ties. This requires the development of new approaches to teaching, considering linguistic characteristics.
Purpose. The purpose of the study was to develop an effective methodology for teaching grammar of Turkic languages aimed at English-speaking students.
Methodology. To create the methodology, a detailed analysis of the grammatical features of the Turkic and English languages, an assessment of existing methods, and the development of new educational materials and exercises were carried out.
Results. The study demonstrated that an effective instructional approach involves a gradual introduction of grammatical topics, progressing from simple to complex, while emphasizing practical application and communicative exercises. Comparative analysis with English enhances comprehension and retention of grammatical rules, particularly in areas such as word order, sentence structure, and case usage. Interactive learning methods, including group work, role-playing, and discussions, significantly enhance learning outcomes. Special exercises targeting the morphological aspects of Turkic languages, such as agglutination and suffix usage, were developed and found beneficial. The integration of multimedia tools, such as audio and video materials in Turkic languages, alongside information and communication technologies, including online platforms for collaborative learning and interaction with native speakers, aids in improving comprehension and solidifying grammatical structures. Lastly, regular feedback and personalized attention were identified as pivotal factors in successfully mastering Turkic language grammar.
Conclusions. The practical significance of the study lies in the development of an effective methodology for teaching grammar of Turkic languages for educational activities. The findings can be integrated into the programmes of teaching Turkic languages in higher educational institutions, contributing to better training of specialists in language specialities.
