Abstract
This article is devoted to the issues of improving and developing the professional skills of university lecturers. The purpose of the study is to systematically describe the content and methodology of practical classes and to identify the main directions that contribute to enhancing the professional qualifications of teachers. The authors examine the goals and objectives of practical classes, their types, stages, and methods of implementation, paying special attention to the teaching techniques of lecturers and the acquisition of skills by students. The study is based on scientific and methodological works, regulatory documents, and pedagogical practices related to the improvement
of the educational process in modern higher education institutions. Methods such as theoretical analysis, comparison, systematization, and interpretation were applied, which made it possible to comprehensively consider the key principles of practical training and the ways of its organization. The results demonstrate that practical classes are not only a means of teaching but also an essential tool for shaping students’ professional interests and competencies. According to the authors, if a lecturer does not show genuine interest in their subject, they will not be able to engage students, and the effectiveness of the educational process directly depends on this principle. In addition, the article provides concrete recommendations regarding the requirements for professional development and the improvement of pedagogical skills of teachers. The article also highlights ways of integrating practical classes with modern educational technologies and emphasizes innovative methods that increase students’ engagement and activity. The introduction of new pedagogical approaches not only expands the professional competence of lecturers but also significantly improves the quality of the learning process. Overall, the study results underline the leading role of practical classes in higher education and their importance in enhancing teachers’ professional mastery, improving the quality of education, and ensuring students’ academic success.
