TEACHING COMMUNICATIVE APPROACH-BASED ENGLISH TO MSU CADETS
Journal Title: Asia-Pacific Journal of Marine Science&Education - Year 2013, Vol 3, Issue 1
Abstract
Communicative approach in language teaching has become widely used in European countries and the USA. Nowadays there are a lot of language schools and courses providing language training based on these principles, and supported by the system of assessment including commonly accepted TOEFL, IELTS, and other testing tools. It seems expedient to apply the methodology for the sake of language training of future seafarers. The efforts to do so are being undertaken by Maritime English Dept, the Maritime Academy, MSU in Vladivostok, Russia. There are some hindrances in the way which could be eliminated through joint efforts on the part of the shipping industry, University administration, and teaching staff. Positive outcomes of introducing communicative approach in Kherson State Maritime Academy can be used as guidance for finding solution to the problems.
