Короткий опис(реферат):
The article analyzes the specific features of teaching English for Specific Purposes to future law students in
the context of globalization, European integration, and the growing demand for internationally competent legal
professionals. It emphasizes that English proficiency today is an integral component of a lawyer’s professional
culture and a necessary condition for successful communication in international legal practice. The study
highlights that the main goal of ESP instruction is not only to develop language knowledge and skills but also
to form the ability to apply them effectively in professional contexts – during negotiations, in court hearings,
when drafting legal documents, and while providing consultations to foreign clients. The paper discusses
methodological and pedagogical approaches that integrate linguistic, legal, and cultural content, ensuring
the development of professional communicative competence. Considerable attention is given to the use
of interactive and innovative teaching methods, including case studies, role plays, business games, debates,
simulations of trials, and integrated interdisciplinary lessons that combine foreign language and legal studies.
The use of authentic legal materials contributes to mastering professional terminology and developing analytical
and argumentative skills.
