Abstract

An important area of language training at the Financial University under the Government of the Russian Federation is its professionalization. This article examines the role of English-language original works in the formation of professional competence of students in the course of their training in the discipline “Foreign language (special)”, despite the fact that many students and teachers consider this inclusion redundant. When selecting fictions, it is necessary to take into account a number of criteria. These include: pronounced professional content, emotional involvement of the reader in the problems raised in the book; genre accessibility of the artwork. The author describes the technology of working with works at the pre-, while- and post-reading stages using the CLIL method and concludes that these works are a unique resource for the formation of a wide range of professionally significant competencies of the future international economist.
