METHODOLOGICAL APPROACHES TO TEACHING RUSSIAN TO LEARNERS FROM UZBEKISTAN

Abstract

This article explores effective methodological approaches for teaching Russian to the learners living in Uzbekistan at universities. As Russian remains a significant second language in Uzbekistan due to historical and practical reasons, its instruction requires approaches tailored to the linguistic and cultural background of Uzbek students. This paper highlights key methodologies, including communicative, comparative, and culturally integrated strategies, with a focus on bilingual learners. The study draws on recent academic publications and reflects the practical needs of both teachers and students in a post-Soviet context.
