Effective use of authentic materials in developing professional communicative skills

Abstract

The article discusses the development of students’ communicative competence through the use of authentic materials. It also provides examples of authentic tasks and activities applicable to all types of speech skills. Authentic sources enhance students’ adaptation to real communicative situations and strengthen their ability to use the language in a natural context. Through such tasks, learners develop communication culture, fluency, and the ability to express their ideas effectively in professional settings.
