Аннотация: As modern teachers of a foreign language are trained, it is necessary that future teachers be comprehensively developed and have the necessary competencies to transfer a complex of knowledge to students in educational institutions. Among the most important competencies of a foreign language teacher in accordance with the federal state educational standards (hereinafter referred to as GEF) is intercultural competence. The purpose of this article is to identify the most effective methods and techniques to promote the development of intercultural competence of future teachers of a foreign language. The problem of the article lies in the fact that this direction in scientific works is considered from the point of view of the formation and development of intercultural competence among secondary school students, while the features of the formation of this type of competence among teachers are practically not studied. This indicates the novelty of the current study.
