Abstract

The article aims to study the latest trends used in teaching English in Ukraine. The comparative and systematic analysis methods were used, and the work is based on the principles of scientificity and objectivity. The results show that the English language teaching system has undergone significant changes in recent decades due to historical development. It is indicated that current trends in English language teaching in Ukraine include a competency-based approach that emphasizes developing speech skills and effective communication in real-life situations (practical use of English). Current trends also include the use of technology, such as interactive programs, mobile applications, and websites. As a result of the use of Flipped classrooms, Task-Based Learning, Content and Language Integrated Learning, and Blended Learning, the use of contextualized learning is widely articulated. The conclusions emphasize the importance of communication, which has become the main goal of learning English.
