IN THE MODERN SCHOOL

It is believed that language learning will be effective only if person enjoys the process itself, and does not motivate himself only by the fact that language learning is a necessity. The main purpose of learning English is not only the formation and development of communicative culture of people learning the language, but also their training in practical mastery of the English language. Now language teaching has become more applied, whereas before it was more theoretical.

Currently, more and more teachers are using new methods of learning a foreign language, which can be more effective. One of the most advanced methods of learning a foreign language is the method of language immersion. Language immersion program as an experimental method of teaching. The rudiments of the idea of the method of language immersion was used by the German teacher Berlitz, who specifically avoided using his native language in teaching. In his classes, he insisted that students conversed more precisely in the target language, and thus learned vocabulary and grammar without memorizing the rules and words. The term immersion (eng. immersion) appeared in the 60s of the last century in Canada. Because of the two official languages in the country, many Canadians had difficulty in hiring or communicating on a daily basis. Thus, in schools, English-speaking children were taught in French and Vice versa. As a result, there was a method of immersion in the language environment, when the teacher teaches or voices instructions in the classroom in a non-native language.

Foreign language is beginning to be perceived as native. The method of language immersion is a method of teaching a second language (not necessarily "foreign" for students), in which the teacher voices the tasks in the lesson in the second language of students. According to the method of "immersion", English should be the only means of communication between the teacher and students. The primary objective of this programm is to develop the language skills of children whose mother tongue is not English. The characteristic features of immersion are the following features:

- focus on mastering oral foreign language;

- the creation of an environment of immersion in the atmosphere;

- activization of reserve possibilities of the person; there are several degrees of immersion, depending on the age of students and time allotted for language learning. Full immersion, where students devote 100 % of their time to a foreign

language. In this type you receive the ability to carry on spontaneous dialogues. Partial immersion, where 50 % of the study time is used to learn the language. Much attention is paid to the knowledge of the country of the studied language. Bilingual or bilingual immersion, where half of the student group consists of native speakers of one language, the rest are native speakers of another language. Teaching is conducted alternately in two languages.

The Basis of the method of immersion is the use of vocabulary and the perception of speech by ear - this is the main barrier for students in a modern school. Therefore, it is necessary to apply various techniques to help create a comfortable environment in the classroom and the team. As you know, the environment strongly affects the state of a person, his mood, performance, self-confidence, creative generation of ideas. To create a comfortable environment for communication, it is necessary to allow students to choose their own place, as well as all the classroom space should have openness: colorful design, circular setting of seats, etc.in practice, the method of language immersion differs in mass parameters from other methods of teaching foreign languages, which are currently used. With this method, new principles of selection and organization of speech and language material should be applied, of which the leading ones are the activity, personal-role, situational-thematic principles. In the process of learning foreign language needs to show students how to use their existing competence in their native language when learning a foreign need to develop and refine common to native and foreign languages learning skills associated with completing oral and written tasks in the textbook, grammar Handbook. When applying the method of language immersion modern teacher should consider in their lessons such an aspect as the language barrier - not the ability to speak a foreign language. To apply their knowledge in practice, students must train hard, gradually overcoming the excitement that prevents them from concentrating.

The teacher should create comfortable conditions for communication and make up for the lack of natural foreign language environment. At the lessons it is necessary to use a communicative method that ensures the active participation of each student in the lesson, stimulates speech communication, contributes to the formation of interest and desire to learn a foreign language. The most widespread means are - game, the situation, poems and songs. The communicative method is set up to overcome the problem of the language barrier, as it combines translation and grammatical exercises with speech exercises. The main feature is that students have the maximum motivation to pronounce all that is being studied. Students should often observe live communication to understand that the language they are learning, live, that it communicate the same people, this can help audiovisual learning tools-films, film fragments, recordings of radio and television programs, etc. They can acquaint students with the history and culture of the country of the studied language, help to visualize and comprehend the phenomena of nature and social life.

Systematic introduction of video materials in the learning process allows children to practice their speech more, contributes to the creation of comfortable

conditions for overcoming the "language barrier". Pros and cons of using the language immersion method Numerous studies have shown that bilingual children, in General, have higher IQs compared to monolingual peers. These children are much better developed memory, attention, thinking, they have great mathematical abilities. Language immersion leads to the fact that children become bilingual. Students in immersion classes Excel in other academic subjects as well as students in regular classes. In addition, a second language learned at an early age helps to learn new foreign languages. The method of language immersion is often categorized as intensive methods of language learning. It is possible in a short time to learn to master the basic vocabulary, but possible psychological discomfort, as during the lesson the student is obliged to abandon the use of the native language.

The method of immersion helps to achieve tangible results. Gradually, the fear of starting communication disappears, the learning process becomes more exciting, students are motivated to learn all the subtleties of the language. Teachers using this method note that the immersion method is effective only if students have a desire to learn the language. This method provides an ever-increasing confidence in their abilities and facilitates the transition from learning to self-learning.
