Available theoretical commentary and material of practical tasks contribute to the development of skills of rapid understanding of stereotyped replicas, adequate response to them and natural speech behavior in the social, educational, professional and business spheres. The content of the textbook meets the current requirements of the Federal State Educational Standard of Higher Education. It is intended for foreign students who speak Russian at the 1 Certification Level (threshold level B1 according to the CEFRL).

The monograph examines the scientific-methodological and content-structural foundations of professionally oriented teaching of the Russian language to foreign bachelor students of technical and natural science profiles. In the context of the evolution of the role of language learning in higher professional education, the problems of communicative and speech training of foreign students of this profile in the educational, scientific, educational, professional and socio-cultural spheres of communication are studied. A scientifically based integrative linguodidactic model of professional and communicative training of foreign bachelor students is proposed, which includes interrelated language disciplines and courses (educational modules) that organically complement each other at different stages of training and have a logical completeness in relation to the established goals and results of training and education.

Science
- Developed and put into practice an integrative linguodidactic model of professionally oriented learning. It consists of logically interconnected and complementary educational modules that cover the entire period of the bachelor studies. The model forms the communicative competence of foreign students, taking into account their needs at a specific educational stage and direction of training. It is used in the organization of the educational process in Russian as a foreign language for technical and natural science training profiles.
- Studied in co-authorship the problem of adequate translation in the case of differences in the ideological context in the case of intergroup mediation. Determined that the translator refers to a mechanism based on: (1) a formal model of an ideologically determined translation problem and (2) a methodology for analyzing ideological shifts from the standpoint of the background and key role of ideology in the translated text. The concept proposed by the author can be used in machine translation used in the news industry.
- Studied in co-authorship the principles of systematization and features of presentation of educational material of lexical norms of the modern Russian literary language. Analyzed the meanings and usage of Russian internationalisms in comparison with the vocabulary of the Spanish language. Determined that the study of lexical norms should be aimed at overcoming the influence of one language on another. Emphasized the leading role of the language-oriented approach and translation as teaching methods.
Scientific interests

Ideology is an important component of text production and reception, and therefore of translation. In the paper, we address the translation of ideology through the prism of the intergroup threat theory. The resulting intergroup mediation perspective is a practical framework aimed at helping translators to evaluate whether an ideological recontextualisation may be desirable when dealing with divergence in ideological contexts between the author, the source text readership and the target text audience. The framework includes ideology shifts analysis in terms of the roles ideology can play in a text: it can constitute a part of the message (foreground) or belong to the background. Although applicable rather generally, the framework is derived from an example-based study of news translation. The study focuses on translation between French, English and German using examples form online versions of major European news media, such as the French Le Monde and Le Figaro, the German Zeit Online and Die Welt, and the British The Independent, The Telegraph and Guardian. The paper allows for a better understanding of ideology-related problems in translation, helps identify essential factors influencing translator's choices and could be used as a guidance in translation practice. Also, considering the formal character of the framework, it could eventually serve as a basis for handling ideology-related issues in machine translation in the news industry.
Ideology affects the work of the translator in different ways, namely, through its presence in the source text, which may be subtle and difficult to reproduce, through the bias of the translator due to his or her personal ideological stance, or through the discrepancy in the reception of the source and target texts when the corresponding audiences belong to opposite ideological camps. The paper examines ideology-related problems in translation. The framework includes the working definition of ideology, indications on how to identify problematic ideology-related elements in the text and how to distinguish ideological issues from cultural ones. It allows for a better understanding of ideology issues, identifies essential factors influencing translator's choices and could be used as a guidance in translation practice.
