Abstract: The author proposes conceptual motivational strategies and methods that can be used by teachers to support and develop student motivation in the process of teaching foreign languages in the conditions of a modern post-industrial society interested in professionals, both in production resources and in methods of creative activity. Since students' motivation to learn is the engine of the educational process, teachers can provide personal information to all participants in the educational process and implement the maximum number of educational materials to increase the effectiveness of educational activities.The subject of this study is motivational strategies and methods that can be used by teachers to support and develop student motivation in the process of learning a foreign language.
A combination of the following methods was used: motivational conversation-interview; focus group method; survey of an expanded student population; analysis and processing of survey results and compilation of tables of statistical data; a method of observing students' behavior and actions during learning. A total of 1104 students from 45 groups were surveyed.
The objectives of this study included the following:
1. Identifying and analyzing factors that positively or negatively influence the internal and external motivation of students to learn foreign languages.
2. Developing and evaluating the effectiveness of methodological approaches, programs and tools that help stimulate students’ motivation to learn foreign languages.
3. Considering family and teacher as a source of motivation for students.
The scientific novelty of the study lies in the comprehensive consideration of various aspects of the motivational component of training translators and foreign language teachers. Both motivating and demotivating factors influencing the internal and external motivation of students to learn foreign languages have been identified and analyzed. Practical recommendations and tools have been developed to encourage university students to study effectively.

Abstract: The authors offer ideas that can form the basis of such a course as "The basics of creating an educational and methodological complex" for teachers of foreign languages.The purpose of the article is to describe the objectives of such a course and how to achieve them. The methodological basis of the study is the analysis of two groups of teaching materials: 1) teaching materials in English, used as the main subjects for teaching "Foreign language" and "Practice of speech of the first foreign language" at "MOSCOW INTERNATIONAL UNIVERSITY" and 2) a group of textbooks, authored by adherents of the intensive method of teaching foreign languages.

The methods of teaching used in the data of the UMK, hourly planning of the development of the UMK by students are investigated. The structure of the UMC, the types of exercises used, and ways to control students' knowledge are determined. The novelty of the study is to identify the main tasks, the solution of which involves the creation of a CMM:
1. determine the age of the students
2. determine the final level of knowledge and skills to which it is necessary to bring the trainees
3. determine the initial level of knowledge and skills of the trainees
4. determine the rate of assimilation of the material
5. determine the vocabulary of the textbook
6. determine the structure of the grammar of the textbook
7. determine the types and types of basic exercises
