THE IMPACT OF SOCIAL-EMOTIONAL LEARNING ON DISCURSIVE SKILLS IN ENGLISH

Abstract. The article discusses the impact of socio-emotional skills on discursive competences in English language teaching in higher education and comments on the ways in which a number of methodological techniques can be applied in this approach. In the article, English learners and teachers will be closely acquainted with new ideas about the existing practices of social-emotional learning. It is known that the development of social-emotional skills in English faces several difficulties in teaching; discursive skills are poorly developed. It is obvious that teachers and students are content with learning English mostly from books, dictionaries, and several tools, and they understand very little about the discursive nature of the language. In this regard, the article presents psychological aspects and strategies for teachers and students.
