Internet suggests different information and resources to their users. Basic collection of services may include: e-mail, Usenet, video conference; possibility to publish own information, to create own homepage and to advertise it on web-server;  access to informational resources; reference books  (Yahoo!  InfoSeek/Ultra Smart,  Look Smart, galaxy); searching    systems    (Alta    Vista,    Hot Bob,    Open    Text,  WebCrawler,  Excite); chat.

These resources maybe actively used at the English lesson. Computer teaching programs have many advantages before traditional method of teaching. They allow to train different kind's of speaking activities and their different combinations, to help to perceive language phenomena, to form linguistic abilities, to make communicative situations, to automatize language and speaking actions, and also supply an ability of control leading representative system, realization of individual approach and intensification of students' individual works.

Example of work with computer program dialogues one is chosen, for example "In cafe". Some pictures are displayed on the scenes, scenes of this dialogue.

     I  stage – introduce  with dialogue

     II  stage – to learn dialogue

          In case there are some computers, students work in  pairs or group of people. They revise phrases after speaker, routine work can be used with microphone. They may also do exercises to form these sentences with a group of words, for example: like, lyke, what, you, wood, your, yu, would. Then teacher directs a point to a necessary word, clicks the mouse to make up a sentence What would you like? and etc. quantity of right sentences are displayed on the screen. In this way, student acquires orthography and learn dialogue using games.

 III stage – to scene the dialogue.

     Students make up dialogues using picture, then scene it individually.

Next stage is a control of dialogue speech after learning all dialogues. Students choose a card with task (teacher herself prepares cards with the description of situations) and make up their own dialogue using lexics of this program and displaying their own fantasy.

This kind of work decides two tasks: writing English words correctly and learning to use main board. Computer teaching program helps to decide these tasks almost every task sets to print English words and sentences on the main board.

 Perfection grammar phenomena.

All teaching computer programs set perfection of definite grammatical structures, grammatical phenomena are worked out at every lesson: positive, negative and interrogative sentences, comparative degrees of adjectives, Participle, Passive voice, pronouns some: any, these is there are structures, prepositions and etc. all kinds of work of one lesson are directed to work out a definite Grammar phenomenon.

From different virtues of personal individualization, supplying summons of communicative motivation, traditionally suggests control of six methodically important summons of student as personality context activity; personal experience; wish, interest; inclination sphere; emotional perceptional sphere; worldview, student's status in the group. All these instigate student to learning.

Acquiring FL successfully in its cognitive function contributes formation of language flair; satisfies knowledgeable methods in learning FL forms stable motivation of constant work; using FL to get definite information (reading journals, newspapers, interpretation, dictionaries and etc) makes this language indispensable in knowledgeable activity of teaching besides FL intensifies the whole knowledgeable activity of teaching and consequently arises motivation of learning the language scientists, researching motivation of learning FL as A.Leontyev, S.Rubenshtein, I. Zimnya single out many kinds of motivation to control individual development requirements of students. We can single out the following:

Contemporary ways develop higher requirements to learning practical acquirement of foreign language in everyday communication and professional sphere. Volume of information arises and often routine methods of its teaching, keeping and working out are non-effective. Using informational technologies allows to expose a large amount of possibilities of computer as one of the means of teaching. Computer teaching programs have many advantages before traditional methods of teaching. They allow to train different kinds of speaking activity and in different combinations, to help, to acquire language phenomena, to form linguistic skills, to make up communicative situations, to automotize language and speaking activities, also to supply possibility of controlling leading representative systems, realization î individual approach and intensification of students' individual works.
