Abstract
Purpose. The main goal of the proposed work is to describe a person-centered systemic hierarchical model of foreign language teaching at a non-linguistic university successfully implemented by teachers of the Department of Foreign Languages at Tver State Medical University. The article presents the main structural features of the model, characterizes its basic components, and substantiates its use in the Russian practice of foreign language teaching. Materials and methods. Theoretical foundations of the study include the analysis of pedagogical and methodological literature on this problem, comparison and generalization. The leading practical method is practice-oriented pedagogical experiment. Results. The main point of the proposed model is person orientation. It is achieved due to the presence of several stages (areas) of studying a foreign language, allowing to satisfy the knowledge needs of the student during their professional development in a higher educational institution; taking into account, firstly, the personal socio-cultural experience of the student, and, secondly, basic school foreign language education, which allows the student to perceive easily (even in their native language) and comprehend the foreign language information; the widespread use of interdisciplinary connections aimed at increasing the motivation of the student’s personality and allowing for the activation of already acquired experience and knowledge; selection of language material: expansion of vocabulary through the introduction of special vocabulary and terminology and limitation of already mastered grammatical structures. Practical implications. The model described can be applied in the practice of foreign language teaching to students at non-linguistic universities.
