Problems of using transcription in the first year of a pedagogical university in the field of “Foreign language”

this article highlights the importance of developing professional competencies in future foreign language teachers, especially in the field of phonetics and transcription. The updated methodological recommendations of the "Core of Higher Pedagogical Education" highlight the need to unify the structure and content of student training in bachelor's degree programs. Particular attention is paid to the development of phonetic skills, including pronunciation, correct perception of sounds and work with transcription. The article emphasizes that transcription is a key element of phonological competence, closely related to the lexical and grammatical aspects of speech, and the lack of basic knowledge about it negatively affects the training of future teachers. However, practice shows that there is a significant discrepancy between the level of actual skills of students and the minimum required for effective teaching of practical phonetics of the English language in a higher educational institution. A survey of 1st-2nd year students showed that in most cases they enter the university with a low level of transcription proficiency and formation of phonetic skills, which complicates teaching the practical aspects of phonological competence. The conducted survey of students showed that the majority of respondents did not use transcription at school, and their current level of proficiency in it is insufficient for effective study at the university. This creates the need to develop new methods and adapt curricula aimed at bringing students' current skills to the requirements of the work program in the discipline "Practical Phonetics of the English Language". Therefore, the introduction of classes aimed at comprehensive work with transcription and the creation of flexible, practice-oriented teaching methods are the most important tasks for improving the quality of training foreign language teachers. In general, the article demonstrates the need to improve the level of phonological competence of students through systematic work with transcription, which in the future will make the training of specialists in the field of teaching foreign languages ??more effective.
