Planned learning activities and teaching methods
The final exam in English takes the form of a comprehensive written test and open-ended tasks aimed at checking functional, language, and speech competencies in English.

According to the structure of the examination ticket, the final exam in English consists of three stages: 1. Written abstract of an English-language text of a general social nature; 2. Oral answer to a theoretical question within the scope of the studied material (without prior preparation); 3. Conversation on the proposed topic.
