Abstract:

As a result of globalization processes, the number of challenges to foreign language learning is increasing dramatically. While in the 80s the main idea represented in the methodology of teaching a foreign language was the implementation of a practical task with the help of the target language, in our days the aim of the foreign language teaching is to transfer reality into the learning process, rather than to make learning resemble reality. In this article: 1) We will discuss Japanese reading comprehension classes according to their structure, content and objectives and in relation to the development of competencies and skills needed for communication in the context of globalization and the movement of human resources; 2) We will offer our own practical options with different purposes that would be helpful to Japanese language teachers in Bulgaria. This will add to the variety of practices already existing in the country.
