thrill, but very seldom leave anyone untouched".
English is the language of international communication for all the humanity. That's why it is difficult to revalue the importance of the English language in modern world. In general the whole political, economic, scientific and sport life of the world goes in English. The English language is defined as official and working language of UNO and exactly the English language is in the list of six international languages of UNO. It is impossible to know all national languages of each country which you cooperate with that's why various summits and meetings of heads of states, signing of laws and decrees, negotiations and debates run in English. International trade, work of banking system, an activity of conveying system overland, afloat and in the air carry out in English. The Olympic Games and different competitions either chose the English language as an official language. Major part of Internet pages with necessary information spreads in English. Major part of computer programs and applications are made up in English either. Expressing feelings and emotions, naming subjects and events, using household devices and modern technologies are called in English in everyday life. Since people have realized the necessity of foreign languages learning, new efficient methods of foreign languages teaching began to appear. The new model of language education entails the update of content, improvement of methods, organizational forms and means of training activity directed on intellectual pupils' development, formation of skills of independent work with information and use knowledge for sensible tasks solutions which can appear in real situation. Lack of such kind of skills deprives the person of the opportunity to succeed, adapt and become a competitive specialist. Orientation on creative personality's development, the necessity of consideration of their educational, social, economical, cultural and communicative needs demands Mass Media usage, especially newspaper and magazine texts in educational process .
In recent years the techniques of Mass Media usage in the foreign languages teaching process are developed intensively. Education becomes more interesting, colorful and emotionally-saturated due to them. Mass Media creates unique opportunity for foreign languages learners to use authentic means (to listen and to communicate to the native speakers). Mass Media implies television, radio, Internet, newspapers, magazines etc. By mean of information transmission Mass Media can divided into: Visual —newspaper, magazine Auditory —radio Audiovisual — television,

activities.
2. A clear example are Power Point presentations which help students speak freely, eye contact, organize ideas. Through Media Presentations there is more communication and collaboration among students, while working with the pages of a book is more individual, less collaborative and less interactive.
3. There is so much information available at the click of a mouse but at the same time you have the feeling that there is little memory space in the brain and students may forget everything, so, try to select the most important things and review and review till they are located in the long term memory.
4. We can exploit a piece of learning materials offered by various Media in several different ways through: analyzing a text in the book, reading and generating ideas from a text in the newspaper or magazine, watching and discussing a TV program or a movie, classroom presentations, exercises and activities using various kinds of Media, pair and group work, reconstructing the text based on the above information brought from different Media, engaging students in useful writing and revision activities, etc.
Nowadays, we are living in a period of rapid technological changes in mass communications. Through Internet, we are now able to access thousands of newspapers and magazines worldwide. Internet has increasingly become a major source of newspapers and magazines for language teachers; just find the web site and click. A lot of radio programs contribute to language learning. Besides getting new information and entertainment, in language classes radio helps the pronunciation, the intonation, the pitch of voice, etc. These might be successful if we undertake adequate preparation and design carefully graded tasks. Students gain a feeling of satisfaction from having understood something of an authentic broadcast, we can see the joy in their faces. They develop greater confidence in their ability to cope with English as it's spoken outside the classroom. Albanian students may use BBC World Service news bulletin, Voice of America or other foreign radio stations. In case students have no possibilities, the teacher may record the news bulletin, transcribe it and prepare to explain any difficult vocabulary that may come out. Then the teacher may ask the students if they have listened to the news in Albanian the day before, because nearly all the news, especially international news, is almost the same. So if the content is somewhat known to the students, they will be more motivated and the success of the task will be easier. "It's no use complaining that children today would rather watch TV or videos than read". We the teachers should try to exploit students' viewing habits as a starting point for developing more active literary skills. The teachers need to know the interests of the students and what they like most to watch in order to keep

high their motivation, undertake different duties, fulfill various assignments and feel the success. In a questionnaire the students were asked which TV station they watch most and why? Most of the students replied that they preferred to watch Top Channel because they like it very much. Here are some of the considerations that the students wrote:
• It has a lot of information
• It is a powerful and trustworthy station
• It is attractive, entertaining, informative, serious
• It gives quick and exact information in different fields
• 'Fix fare' is one of the most watched programs
• News is of high quality, quick and fresh
• The staff is very professional and well qualified
• It uses an advanced technology
• It gives a lot of interesting documentaries
• It has a wide range of programs, etc.
While using a film in the classroom to help our English we have paid attention to the accent, voice, body language, choosing of the words, training ear and the eye, lifestyle, plot idea, summary, what's going on, why and how, and many other things depending on the aim we have put to ourselves. The overall aim has always been to maximize comprehension and learn more English. But we all know that watching a full feature film needs more time than teaching hours. So, we need to be able to fit films into a classroom schedule organizing different activities that help this aim. In order to save time we might tell the story of the film ourselves, illustrating it by showing three or four key scenes without telling the end. Another way is the use of video-cassette. The students may watch the film themselves in the video-classroom or at home and come the next day and present what they watched and what happened in the film.
CONCLUSION
Appearing of the Internet in education system motivates students to study, broadens the range of individual activity of each pupil, and increases the rate of supplying the qualitative material within one lesson. All these possibilities realize with the help of e-mail communication with the pupils from another countries, creation and conducting joint telecommunication projects, the opportunity of reading books and watching videos in foreign language and listening authentic audio material. Recently watching videos and listening audio in online mode got popular. Internet is a unique way to be on the same wavelength with foreign culture, to watch favorite movies, lis-
