Abstract
The work is prepared as part of a study aimed at finding effective ways of teaching English to medical programmes students. The subject of the research is the tendencies of linguodidactics in non-linguistic programmes in Russian higher education. We consider methods focusing on the development of academic language competence, based on approaches related to the integration of authentic texts in the specialty into the study of the English language, among which one can single out content and language integrated learning (hereinafter – CLIL) and English for special purposes (hereinafter – ESP). They help to improve not only the language competence of future doctors, but also academic and cognitive. The use of these approaches makes it possible to improve the skills of foreign language communication in the framework of professional education without breaking a single methodic continuum, which is important because it contributes to an improvement in the ratio of time costs and results without reducing the quality of education. Scientific novelty lies in the consideration of the competence-based approach in higher education from the position of bilingualism. In the course of the work, fundamental patterns of ontogeny of artificial bilingualism were discovered, which are adapted to the conditions of modern medical discourse, which determines the methods of research – deduction, abstraction and analysis. As a result, it was concluded that in order to comply with the requirements for the preparation of medical programmes students, it is necessary to develop the interlanguage to the level of fluent bilitarity. The results obtained can be used in the development of specialized training programs.
