TEACHING RUSSIAN AS A FOREIGN LANGUAGE IN THE CONTEXT OF A COMMUNICATIVE-ACTIVITY APPROACH
The article presents an analysis of the system of Russian as a foreign language, not as a list of theoretical rules presented in a multi-level description of the language (phonetics → word formation → morphology → syntax → text), but as a component of meaningful, purposeful and meaningful communication based on a communicative - activity approach. It is noted that at the present stage of development of methods of teaching foreign languages, special attention is paid to the development of skills and abilities of adequate communication. Russian as a foreign language teachers are faced with the need to train students to form thoughts using the Russian language at all levels of proficiency, despite the tendency to reduce teaching hours in higher education institutions. A Russian language teacher can do this only if there is a purposeful, clear strategy for teaching foreign students who are taught using an intermediary language, based on a communicative and activity approach. The article notes the teacher's obligation to activate the mechanisms of conscious perception of language facts for the development of active speech. This helps to overcome the one-sided view of teaching the language to students of the English-language form of education.
