Methods and techniques
In the process of teaching Kyrgyz language we made the “communicative method” the main principle of our coordinatorship. It provides learning process which is directed to the development of reading, listening, speaking skills (writing, speaking). That’s why language learners should be able to take an active part in the cultural activities of the nation whose language is being taught, and that will help them to master the language easily and in a short time.
In the foreign language learning process we use grammatical exercises along with the creativity developing exercises. All definitions in these directions focus on the communicative competences. Focusing on the communicative competences in the foreign language learning process is considered to be the bases of European Language Union’s language teaching program. Practical exercises are supported by the interconnected communicative competences like (reading, listening) and exercises for developing speaking skills (writing, speaking). That’s why all the foreign language learners should be able to take an active part in the cultural activities of the nation whose language is being taught, and that will help them to master the language easily and in a short time.
Every lesson is rich in lesson materials and is provided with all the necessary audio-visual communicative technologies, lesson plans, (TV, DVD, projector, internet, multimedia class etc). Moreover, special social life activities, creating friendly atmosphere, opportunities for intercultural relations also helps language learning process.
