CHALLENGES IN PREPARATION OF GUIDE TRANSLATORS

Abstract

This article examines the problems in the preparation of guide-translators. High-quality training of guides and interpreters requires a developed educational program that is oriented towards modern market requirements, a competency-based approach and is capable of eliminating these contradictions. It is expected to focus on the formation of the communicative competence of the guide-translator using a foreign language. It is concluded that the excursion game “I am a tour guide” with a real visit to the museum and the use of interactive teaching methods help prepare students for future professional activities.
