We have carried out the analysis of the current system of the professional and language education, the specific circumstances of professional and language training of students, studying at the “Service and Tourism” Department (Bachelors). During the theoretical analysis, we have found out that one of the most effective methods of forming foreign professional communicative competence is a case method. The advantage of the developed kind of cases – communicative-cognitive cases, is that they are adapted to the early stage of the professional students’ training and can help to unite linguistic and professional education. Communicative-cognitive cases presuppose graduate formation of independent creative students’ activity and involves 3 types: reproductive explanatory, productive reproducing, independent cases. We have worked out the following components for each case: plot component, informative, methodological, summarizing, training, reflexive components. We have devised the following stages and phases of working on a case: a preparatory stage (motivational-guideline, modeling and self-construction phases), a case solution stage (an anticipatory discussion phase, a plunging into activity phase, holding a discussion, a phase of generalizing and conducting self-control) and a stage of making a conclusion.
