It was found out, that the majority of students face with challenges while writing texts in English language and even in a native one. Proficiency in written speech activity in a foreign language allows to the future medical translator become a full-fledged member of the globe. We used theoretical (literature studying, analysis and data processing) and empirical methods (observation the students during the practical classes, questionnaire and study of the obtained outcomes).
