Abstract.The article discusses approaches that allow foreign language teachers to maintain teaching at a high professional level, increasing their professional competence. It emphasizes the relevance of this issue in modern world for the education system, which pays special attention not only to the quality of teaching and training of pedagogical personnel, but also contributes to the professional growth of teachers throughout their career. Approaches that can be used by teachers to increase awareness of their work in the classroom are analyzed. The problems that can be identified while analyzing educational activities are named, and options for their solution are proposed, taking into account the factors influencing success in learning a foreign language, taking into account the individual characteristics and needs of students. Particular attention is paid to the process of self-observation, as well as problems that appear during the study of a recorded lesson and can be solved by reformulating the task and increasing or decreasing the time students need to solve a problem or answer a question. Methods allowing to have a positive impact on the interaction between all participants in the educational process are proposed. The importance of the methods used both for improving the educational process and for the personal growth of the teacher is noted, since the view from the outside allows to assess objectively the manner of speaking, the reaction of students to the remarks and actions of both the teacher and other students.

Key words:pedagogical education, competence, personal development, interaction, self-observation, motivation.
