Tula state university, foreign students enroll for a variety of subjects ranging from Medicine to Technology. In accordance with the Priority 2030 program, Tula State University is implementing a project to introduce English-language educational programs of higher education into the educational process.
The team of foreign languages department of institute for the humanities and Social science developed a comprehensive program for training teachers to teach in the English language. It includes modules on professionally oriented vocabulary, grammar, development of communication skills, and intercultural communication.
English-language programs allow foreign students to immediately start studying, bypassing a year of preparation in the Russian language that is otherwise needed. But this does not at all take away the importance of the Russian language, since in the curriculum the students have classes in Russian also, which helps them effectively integrate into the Russian-speaking environment.
The teacher of the department "Psychiatry and Narcology" at Medical Institute of Tula State University Daria Viktorovna Dementieva teaches the general educational subject "Psychology of Leadership and Teamwork". “I became a participant in this project for many reasons,” she admitted. - Firstly, it is necessary for self-development. No wonder they say that the best investment is an investment in yourself.
dition, it is very important for me to overcome my fear when communicating with international students. And, the best way to overcome your fear is to acquire knowledge. And finally, I am sure that English will help me in preparing for the defense of my PhD thesis.
