The efficiency of language teaching through integration in future philologists’ foreign language competence formation

The article aims at determining the impact of integrated methods and approaches to language learning on the development of various students’ foreign language competencies. Methods. The research involved the questionnaire method, the method of expert evaluations, and the method of analysing the development of language competences. The obtained data were processed by the methods of mathematical statistics. Results. It was found that the indicator “grammar knowledge” had a high correlation with “vocabulary” (r = 0.73) and “listening skills” (r = 0.69), which indicates the tendency of students with a high level of grammar knowledge to enhance their vocabulary and improve their listening skills. Some other indicators such as “writing skills” and “speaking skills” also had a fairly high correlation with “listening skills”. Conclusion. Summarizing the conducted research on the effectiveness of language learning through integration when building future philologists’ foreign language competences, it can be stated that this approach is effective and contributes to the improvement of language learning quality in higher educational institutions. Prospects. Future research could focus on different languages and students’ nationalities.
