Features of Individualization of Teaching a Foreign Language in a Non-linguistic University

Abstract

The article is devoted to the issue of individualization of teaching a foreign language in a non-linguistic university. The authors consider the concepts of “individualization”, “differentiation” and “personalization”, where individualization is realized in a particular subject, personalization is aimed at the entire education system as a whole, and differentiation complements these two principles in the conditions of the group organization of the learning process. After analyzing the typology of E.I. Passov, the authors in their study summarized those methods and techniques that correspond to personal and subjective individualization. In addition, a survey of English teachers was conducted, which showed that teachers are ready to implement the principle of individualization, but they face problems that need to be solved. The article analyzes these problems in detail and draws the corresponding conclusions.
