ABSTRACT
To improve the learning outcomes of students and adjust the professional competences of the future specialists to the current labor market demands we designed an integrated methodology for CLIL learners and implemented it in the course of International Business. The suggested methodology involves flipped classroom activities, online resource for self-directed study and project-based learning practices. Russian high schools are quite reluctant to student-centered approach to delivery of professional disciplines due to their traditional systems of education that are focused on the formation of theoretical knowledge as the basis of professional competences. To prove efficiency of the suggested methodology we designed and carried out the assessment of students' performance and achievements. The set of tests on English proficiency, knowledge obtained in the course of the discipline was conducted to identify the level of professional skills development. Course satisfaction was measured, results were analyzed and then the correlation with students' achievements was done. Positive outcomes of students' academic performance prove the necessity of refocusing professional disciplines at Russian high schools from teacher-centered approach to new learning and teaching practices.
