METHODS TO INCREASE STUDENT MOTIVATION WHEN TEACHING ENGLISH

Abstract

The problems of teaching foreign languages are now more urgent than ever
due to the emergence of so-called alternative teaching methods and techniques.
The urgency of the use of new information technologies is dictated by the realities
of today's education, in particular, the need to speak an appropriate level of a
foreign language, creative thinking and the ability to work in a team. However, the
acquisition of foreign language communication skills is seen as problematic
without the motivational component. Motivation is a generator of students' interest
in learning a foreign language. This article discusses the full range of motivational
learning tools available for teaching English, which allows you to develop
communication skills that are motivated not by external motives but by an
individual with a strong, conscious desire to learn a foreign language. It helps to
improve the language and put into practice the knowledge gained in the
classroom. The purpose of the study is conditioned by the need for parallel use of
foreign language and Internet technologies in the conditions of modern reality.
The methods used by the authors in the study of motivational trends in the study
of English and language skills include modern accessible questionnaires based
on Internet resources and social networks, as well as analysis of the results
obtained.
The rapid development of different ways of teaching foreign languages, the
changes in the socio-cultural context of public life imply a change in the demands
of modern society towards education in general and language education in
particular. Discovery of English teaching methods is therefore a very topical issue
in the context of learner motivational disclosure.
The purpose of this article is to explore the main ways and means of
increasing your motivation to learn English. In order to achieve this goal, we
consider it necessary to consider what the English teaching system should be
like, which contributes to the challenge that hinders the learner, to increase the
motivation to learn.
The article presents several types of assignments based on audio-visual
material for teaching English and fiction.
Recent studies and analysis of publications are the main directions that
addressed the aspects of this issue, on the basis of which the author
substantiates, highlighting the previously unresolved parts of the overall problem.
Before discussing the research on motivational methodology of English teaching,
it is necessary to consider the essence of the concept of "motivation" in the
context of this study.
