Teaching Russian language and speech culture to future artists of traditional art crafts: experience and challenges

Based on the well-known fact that the quality of Russian language proficiency is an important indicator of a person's social significance and a necessary condition for achieving the planned learning outcomes in higher education institutions, the author examines and analyzes the experience of developing good speech communication skills and teaching Russian based on the recognition of the text phenomenon as a key unit of teaching Russian language and speech culture. The author's methodological approaches to teaching Russian language and speech culture are characterized by their influence on the implementation of the principle of dialogical interaction, the use of full assimilation technologies, and the development of critical thinking. The reliability of the author's work in shaping the proposed experience is confirmed by examples from students' creative works (fragments of narratives, descriptions, and reasoning), as well as from the experience of teaching Russian language and speech culture systematically.
