It is undoubtedly essential for the successful educational activities, especially against the background of the constant dynamic development of the latest teaching methods and technologies, the introduction of innovative approaches to teaching foreign languages.
It is incredibly important to develop international relations and collaborate to strengthen academic and cultural contacts in today's challenging environment. At the university, great attention is paid to the study of foreign languages and the atmosphere of the countries whose languages are studied by students is recreated. After all, foreign language training of specialists is one of the priorities of innovative development of Poltava Polytechnic.
