Actuality of the theme of the research.   The problem of teaching English by communicative  method is very important  and actual nowadays because  knowledge of language  is valued by the  ability of speaking and communicating in a foreign language without any difficulties.  In this work both theoretical and practical approaches of  communicative teaching are described in details.

The problem of  communicative teaching  was  investigated by a large number of scientists in methodology  such as V. Allen, H. Brown, J. Richards and T. Rodgers, W. Littlewood,  D. Nunan,  J. Towell  and others. They investigated  communicative teaching  foreign languages  in different ways for students of different levels.  This   work presents  a rich material on how to teach and make teaching foreign languages effective and fruitful.   All demonstrated teaching methods  are widely approved in many prestigious universities of the USA and the UK  and communicative activities with games including  the variations of taking notes during the lesson. 

All the methods are embodied in the theory and practical part. As a theory we  give research of professional language teachers who studied the methods they considered   as useful and effective and put their opinion on teaching English communication. So this work describes the communicative methods, gives tests proving its effectiveness and touches some problem spots on them. Then follows the practical part containing examples of taking these methods and activities in the classroom.

          Games during lesson  have great educational value. Games should be treated as central not peripheral to the foreign language teaching program. There are many advantages of using games: they are highly motivating and entertaining and they can give shy students more opportunity to express their opinions and feelings. They also enable learners to acquire new experiences within a foreign language which are not always possible during a typical lesson. [73]

         The communicative methods of teaching language are the best ways of making this process easy and effective.  Moreover, they make the students learn the language with fullest enthusiasm, desire and interest. The communicative activities and games make common lesson very interesting, unusual and bright. The students feel the real atmosphere of the learned language.  Today only the communicative methods of teaching foreign vocabulary can reply   the required demands of educating audience.

The aim of the research  is    investigation of  the communicative methods  of  teaching  foreign languages (in our case English)  and making this process interesting and motivating  for  students to learn the language  easily, desirably and quickly.
