This study is devoted to the issues of training future foreign language teachers in the context of globalization, dialogue of cultures and the growing need for intercultural communication. In modern education, a foreign language teacher is seen not only as a mediator of cultures, but also as a bearer of values, facilitating the integration of students into the global community. This requires a transition from a narrowly subject-based model of training to the development of personal qualities and professional competencies that ensure active participation in the dialogue of cultures. This article identifies the contradictions between society's demands for teacher competence and existing educational practices, as well as between the need for a high level of communicative training and the insufficient language readiness of graduates. A conceptual model is proposed aimed at improving the personal and professional development of future specialists.
