Abstract

Georgia is an ethnically diverse state. 14% of the population cannot perceive the Georgian language as their mother tongue, or do not try to master it. The conducted studies revealed that the language barrier is one of the main obstacles to their full integration into the civil and political life of the country. The main problem caused by ignorance of the Georgian language as the state language can be solved by an effective reform. Canada, The USA, Finland, Norway, Hungary… Were the first to synthesize the ideas and practices of education with the dimensions of a diverse society and modern requirements. The purpose and objectives of our paper implies the use of the best form of integrated teaching of the mutual cooperation principle, which excludes only the so-called “lecture-seminar” type, and students are actively involved in all sections of the course. Accordingly, the result will be that the knowledge and skills acquired as a result of learning a second language will be used: Specific theoretical and practical issues of oral speech, distinguishes between reading strategies (silent reading, reading with pauses, reading as a whole), understands the meaning of different types of texts heard in a foreign language, participates in auditory communications and work, makes a reasonable conclusion in a second language or a foreign language.
