The article is devoted to the issues of the cultural aspect of teaching the Latin language, optimization, and effectiveness of the study of the Latin language in order to update the methodological paradigm. The relevance of the article is due to the emergence of new priorities of higher medical education, the transition from a qualification approach in professional medical education to a competency-based one, where the emphasis is shifted from the "assimilation of knowledge" to the formation of "competences» that ensure professional terminological literacy of a specialist, as well as the need to find and develop optimal theoretical methods and practical methods, the use of modern innovative technologies and online methods aimed at improving educational outcomes, including in distance learning conditions.
