Introduction
Foreign language learning is one of the important directions of the modern education system.
Against the background of global integration and the development of information technologies,
the demand for learning foreign languages is increasing. Therefore, the methodology of
teaching a foreign language is constantly being updated. In this process, the experience of
Uzbekistan and other developed countries has its own characteristics. This article analyzes the
main differences and similarities between the two systems.
Main part

platforms.
However, methodological freedom is still limited in many educational institutions, teachers
cannot freely use their methods, and technological tools are not enough.
2. Approaches to teaching a foreign language in foreign countries
In developed countries of the world (for example, the USA, Great Britain, Finland, South Korea),
language learning is organized as followsImmersion method - lessons are conducted entirely in a
foreign language, a language environment is created.
CLIL (Content and Language Integrated Learning) - subject and language are taught together
(for example, geography in English).
Flipped classroom - the student watches the lesson on video at home, discusses it in class.
Differential approach - the language learning style and pace of each student are taken into
account.
Most teachers have methodological freedom, the use of modern technologies is high, and
students are constantly encouraged to communicate in a foreign language.
3. Comparative analysis
Aspects Uzbekistan Foreign countries
Teaching method Mainly traditional and communicative Immersion, CLIL, communicative. Use
of technology Moderate or limited High Language environment Artificial, a natural language
environment is created limited to the lesson. Teacher training varies, methodological support is
lacking. Highly qualified, regular professional development is student-oriented, partially fully
student-oriented
Conclusion
Positive steps are being taken in the education system of Uzbekistan in the field of teaching a
foreign language. However, the experience of foreign countries shows that in order to achieve
effective results, it is necessary to pay attention to the following measures:
Strengthening the methodological and technological training of teachers;
Creating an environment for communication in a foreign language;
Introducing modern, flexible methods;
Integrating teaching of science and language.
This effectively develops students' free thinking and communication skills in a foreign language.
