The article considers the possibilities of using project technology when teaching a professionally oriented foreign language to tourism students. The authors analyze the main features of project training, the stages of work on a project, the distinguishing features of projects designed to teach a professionally oriented foreign language, pedagogical conditions that contribute to the effective development of students' project competence. The results of experimental work are given, which made it possible to identify the most difficult stages of work on a project for students, both in terms of knowledge of a foreign language and the formation of project competence. The experience of using the project method for teaching a professionally oriented foreign language has revealed the advantages of this method, which are described in this article. The authors also come to the conclusion that the use of the project method in classes of a foreign language in the field of professional communications contributes to the formation of necessary competencies as a combination of knowledge and skills that ensure the students’ willingness to solve specific problems in a multicultural environment. The article describes the system of pedagogical conditions for the formation of project competence, which the authors selected on the basis of the conceptual analysis of empirical material and pedagogical literature, their own pedagogical experience, theoretical approaches and the methods that exist in the educational process of higher education. Properly organized work on a project in a professionally-oriented foreign language class not only forms inter cultural communicative competence, but also allows to form simultaneously professional and social competencies, as a result of which one more goal of higher education is achieved – the formation of project competence.
