Abstract
The article raises the question of the need of teaching a number of profile disciplines in a foreign language (the subject-language integrated training) for students of the faculty of service and tourism. After graduating from a higher education institution, graduates of the Bachelor's and Master's degree programmes of specialisms «Service», «Tourism», and «Hospitality» have to know a foreign language at the level sufficient for the solution of problems of interpersonal and cross-cultural interaction, and for the implementation of business communications in professional activity: working in a contact zone with the consumer, consulting, coordinating, maintaining documentation, etc. The article describes the experience of teaching the course «Restaurant and Hotel Service» – one of the profile disciplines taught at the faculty of service and tourism of the FGBOU VO «Volga region state academy of physical culture, sport and tourism» – in English. The method of delivering lectures involving dialogue, not only in the direction Teacher ↔ Student but also Student ↔ Student, when students become active participants in delivering lecture material, is presented in the article. While conducting practical training, two methods were used. At the core of the first method there is preliminary preparation of presentations on given subjects by a subgroup of students (in 4–5 people), with further performance and discussion of material in English and Russian. The second method of conducting practicals is based on problem training with the solution of cases directly at practical sessions without preliminary training of students. The comparative analysis of the results of the entering (at the beginning of a semester) and intermediate (at the end of a semester) students' tests regarding their language competence on the basis of the All-European scale (Common European Framework of Reference), and the questionnaire of the students showed the efficiency of teaching profile disciplines in English. The most pronounced dynamics of language competence was shown by the students of the experimental group. The prospects of the subject- language integrated training, including the use of the «Flipped Class» method, are presented in the article.
