In current conditions, the strategic goal of teaching a foreign language is the formation of a multilingual and multicultural personality with both professional and basic social and cultural competencies designed to ensure intercultural communication. Understanding foreign language oral speech is an integral part of the process of intercultural communication, without which communication can be difficult or impossible. All this was a prerequisite for improving the formation of perceptual competence in students in the study of foreign languages. The authors studied the essence of perceptual competence, its place in the structure of communicative competence, main characteristics and formed a hypothesis. The second stage of the study involved experimenting to confirm or refute the hypothesis put forward. The authors developed an experimental course that differed from the traditional methods and tools, divided the students into 3 groups according to specific criteria, and conducted an experiment. As a result of the investigation, the hypothesis was confirmed that teaching the understanding of a foreign language oral speech will be more effective if, in the course of teaching according to the proposed methodology, based on unadapted authentic videos demonstrating the variability of communicative situations, students will develop the skills of perceptual competence in interpreting discourse.
