The article deals with the analysis of the process of forming communicative
competence of future TESOL students by means of microteaching based on the experience
of leading British higher education institutions. It has been specified that the phenomenon
of communicative competence in scientific discourse originated in the 1960s and connected
with the prominent British, German and American scientific researchers (L. Bachman,
R. Campbel, M. Canale, J. Habermas, M. Halliday, M. Swain et al.), who have produced their
own implications on communicative competence. Based on their views it has been specified
that the communicative competence should be acquired in all areas, namely, speaking,
reading, listening, and writing. Therefore, it has been justified that microteaching is of
significance, as it allows future TESOL teachers to develop the high level of communicative
competence. It has been found out that microteaching was developed by Stanford
University specialists and became adopted by many teacher education institutions in the
world. The model of microteaching acquired in British education institutions has been
described. It has been outlined that microteaching is seen as a simplified form of teaching,
the main peculiarity of which means it is evaluated by peers/supervisors to provide a
feedback. It has been indicated that the main aim of microteaching is to allow future
TESOL teachers to determine their level of communicative competence most objectively. It
has been clarified that future TESOL teachers should undergo three stages to form their
communicative competence. The advantages and disadvantages of microteaching in the
context of forming future TESOL teachers’ communicative competence have been
presented. The most prominent advantages have been analyzed. The perspectives for
further studies have been determined.
