The paper presents an overview of pedagogical technologies that help forming creative thinking of future teachers. Special attention is given here to the potential of language disciplines, including work with texts in a foreign language. The author uses the empirically obtained data and makes conclusions about the levels of formation of creativity among future teachers, the differences of creative thinking of the students of different courses and the impact of the described forms and teaching methods on the formation of creative thinking.
