Today the modern research themes are related with the necessity of a constant education system development. The problems concerning to the improvement of the level and qualitative professional education are always to be and will be actual. As a result people work outa lot of different methods and modes. There are two methods of teaching: a traditional and untraditional.
I would like to be more specific about the untraditional methods, in other words, about the innovative methods of teaching which help us to change our traditional way of thinking. The innovative methods of teaching form analytic skills and give the opportunity to have an accessible and qualitative education.
The aim of innovative methods is to create such methods and modes which raise the efficiency and productivity of teaching process. According to student’s opinions new methods and untraditional forms of teaching always awake their interest, motivate and even stimulate them.
