Abstract. Fiction plays a crucial role in the formation of the “self-image” of adolescents. The formation of the “self-image” in adolescents helps them understand themselves, their feelings, relationships, and their place in the world. With the help of reading, adolescents have the opportunity to see themselves as heroes depicted in fiction and analyze their actions. As a result of all this, adolescents begin to develop self-awareness and necessary healthy values. Modern society requires individuals who are able to think creatively, make innovative decisions, and independently acquire knowledge. Therefore, the main principle of organizing the educational process in secondary schools should be humanization. This requires teachers to pay attention to the inner world of students, their interests and needs, and to enrich their spiritual potential. Literary education has a special role in the personal development of students. Its educational potential is quite significant. The specific nature of the content shapes a person's inner world, worldview, value dimension, attitude to nature, homeland, social duty, uniqueness in religion, work, family, art, love, as well as the understanding of a person's purpose and the meaning of life. Literary works show students the beauty and ugliness of actions. They force them to consider higher personal qualities.

Key words: pedagogical communication, behavior, student, interaction, means of influence, mimicry, listening culture.
