Abstract

The article examines the problem of developing speaking skills using authentic video materials in the "Practical English Language Course". Aim of research is to examine the process of using video materials in the "Practical English Language Course" by applicants for higher education in the process of training speaking skills. The following methods were used during the research: study and analysis of methodological and educational literature, generalization and systematization of information on teaching English speaking skills using video materials. The study emphasizes the special role of communicative competence in the process of teaching English to applicants for higher education.

Speaking is an oral verbal communication in the process of which the following components are distinguished: the purpose of speaking, the content of the speech act, the conditions of communication, the originality of the language partners. The effectiveness of using video materials in teaching higher education students to speak is emphasized. Three main stages of working with authentic video materials are highlighted: before you read/watch, while you read/watch, after you read/watch. Various types of exercises and tasks are presented that can be performed before, during or after watching a video fragment (movie). The correct selection of authentic materials is emphasized, considering the level of language training of applicants for higher education. The topics for video materials that may be interesting and related to the program material are indicated. The article highlights the difficulties that arise in the process of speaking and suggests their solutions.

Success in teaching English speaking in practical classes in higher education institutions directly depends on teaching methods, and therefore the use of video materials motivates, interests students, and encourages them to speak.
