The article analyses peculiarities of the development of phonetic competence of students majoring in “Philology” who begin to learn a second foreign language (German). Phonetic competence is the ability to correctly articulate, intonate the utterances and comprehend the speech of others. According to the authors, phonetic competence is based on the skills laid at the initial stage of learning a second foreign language. Phonetic competence is an important component of all types of speech skills and therefore, it develops comprehensively in speech activity. The authors are convinced that the study of phonetics is not possible without the practical mastery of lexical and grammatical constructions of a foreign language. The author’s methods of development of phonetic competence of philology students are based on the following principles: 1) comparative analysis of phonetic phenomena in different languages; 2) taking into account the difference between spelling and pronunciation; 3) development of phonemic hearing; 4) active training; 5) the use of emotional means. The task of a teacher is to create an emotional factor (game techniques, models of communication situations, selection of speech patterns), a communicative environment, motivation and interest. The “German pronunciation games” selected by the authors are aimed at creating a “German accent” for students. Thus, practice proves that the principle of approximation, which is applied at the initial stage of learning a foreign language, is inappropriate for students learning German as a second foreign language. Communicative orientation is the main aspect of planning a second foreign language lesson for philology students. It is determined that successfully organized initial stage of the development of phonetic competence is very effective for further mastering a practical course of a second foreign language.
