Abstract:

The paper focuses on the aspects of using project-based teaching methodology in an FLT classroom. It discusses the benefits of this methodology and how these benefits can be related to English language teaching. The arguments presented are supported with the filed data from a high school classroom.
Current approaches to foreign language teaching (FLT) imply a wide use of methods which rely on both traditional and innovative techniques. This allows educators to introduce the students to other cultures, develop their learning and creative skills and boost the interest to language learning. Thus, many educational institutions focus on developing various methods that both expose students to new theoretical knowledge and encourage them to practice it in real life situations.

Researchers have looked carefully at many advanced approaches to the organization of educational process. Project-based teaching is undoubtedly one of the best methodologies as it exposes the students to theoretical and practical skills that they are longing for. Thus the paper dwells upon the nature and structure of project-based teaching as well as the aims educators can achieve with the help of this method.
