Turkpenova D.K. COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS OF TRADITIONAL AND INTENSIVE FOREIGN LANGUAGE TEACHING METHODS AS A SUBJECT OF AXIOLOGICAL CAPACITY DEVELOPMENTThe article deals with a brief analysis of traditional and intensive methods and courses of foreign language teaching. Teaching methods and courses have been considered as a subject of development of the learner’s axiological potential. The main aim of the paper is to prove that intensive methods and courses of teaching are not the subject of academic foreign language teaching as they do not develop the learner’s full axiological potential, according to the author. The main aim of the intensive methods is to reduce the teaching time, due to the commercial demand from the modern consumer. The author therefore describes the main traditional and natural teaching methods, namely audiolinguistic, natural and communicative approaches. These have been compared with author’s methods such as the methods of American linguist Paul Pimsleur and the Russian polyglot Dmitry Petrov. These approaches were tested and compared at different levels of foreign language proficiency as well as in different age categories. During the approbation the main axiological aspects were identified, which are developed through the above teaching methods. The article shows the pros and cons of each method. The author concludes by presenting his conclusions about intensive methods of teaching a foreign language. According to the author’s opinion, intensive methods can be effectively applied separately, together and complement each other to develop specific axiological aspects, skills, abilities or knowledge as well as on the development and memorisation of a certain set of vocabulary or grammar according to the topics being studied. Key words: foreign language, axiological potential, traditional method, intensive method, course.
