Abstract

The article presents models of achieving communicative competence in English as a foreign language. It also deals with the views on the essence of the notion communicative competence and its structure. In the context of studying English as a foreign language it has been proposed to consider communicative competence in two main aspects: as the result of studying English and as the ability to successfully implement communicative behavior in a certain situation. Communicative competence as the result of studying is achieved by practice and achievement motivation. Communicative competence as the ability to successfully implement communicative behavior can be explained by the Yerkes–Dodson law.
