Abstract

Foreign language communication is an essential part of the future professional activities of generation Z students. A professional-oriented approach to teaching a foreign language is therefore becoming particularly relevant. It is common knowledge that the English language varies depending on the content of the professional sphere, with ESP in some spheres sounding as a foreign language to native speakers. Therefore, there is a need to combine ESP, EAP, and GE. The language abilities of generation Z students are changing due to the increase in foreign language content of everyday life. This influences the education environment, which brings modern young people closer to the need of understanding Internet content. It explains the young generation’s interest in foreign languages (in 99% of cases it is the English language). The authors focus on fostering the vital skills of generation Z and provide some recommendations based on the experience gained during the coronavirus pandemic by the Faculty of Modern Languages at St Petersburg University.
