The gaps, arisen between social order of the modern society for training specialists, capable of exercising adequate communication and reaching mutual understanding at the intercultural level, and the current practice of teaching foreign languages, presume the quest for new methods as there is a certain difference between the presently arranged approach to teaching foreign languages and the present-day requirements for the communicative teaching orientation.The formation of the communicative competence of students, taking into account some specific features of the textual activity, will be effective if agreeable with a theoretically substantiated methodical professionally-oriented model of forming the communicative competence through professionally-oriented texts; teaching tо form a foreign language communicative competence will be organized as interaction between speaking subjects (i.e. between а teacher and students); the principle of building а consistent methodical model includes consideration of regularities of a foreign language communicative competence based upon authentic professionally-oriented texts.This article is devoted entirely to the presentation and exemplification of one of the units from my new educational supply "Professionally-oriented English".The main objective of this course is to develop the students' abilities in usage of English for communicative purposes and their future professional needs at the overall development of speaking, writing, reading and listening skills.
