Abstract: This article explores the major challenges faced when implementing
modern methodologies in foreign language teaching and proposes practical solutions
supported by international research. It discusses problems such as the persistence of
outdated methods, insufficient teacher training, inadequate technological resources,
low learner motivation, and institutional constraints. Drawing on recent studies, the
paper argues that overcoming these barriers requires a comprehensive approach
involving curriculum reform, teacher professional development, technological
investment, motivational strategies, and institutional support. These measures are
essential for aligning foreign language education with global communicative needs.
