Abstract

Teaching Ukrainian as a foreign language has come to a great importance in modern educational system. The aim of the research is to concentrate main attention on grammar competence forming. Applying the combined methods and approaches while studying grammatical aspects of Ukrainian is of great importance [1: 3]. The research task consists in the revealing the basic problems arising for the foreign students, especially those, who have never studied any of Slavic languages before, while learning Ukrainian language. At this point, learning Ukrainian as a foreign language in a multilingual group seem to be more progressive than that of a group of students speaking the same language: when a foreign language becomes a common method of communication, the students feel more motivated to study.
