Abstract

The gradual transition of the national education system of the Republic of Kazakhstan to a trilingual model has led to the development of methodical and methodological approaches to the effective teaching of subjects of natural science in English. In turn, the use of a foreign language as a means of developing intercultural communication amongst students requires studying the existing global and regional experience in this field.
