Abstract. This article examines the importance of developing leadership
competence among young language learners through interactive teaching methods. In
modern education, language learning is no longer limited to acquiring grammatical
knowledge and vocabulary. It also involves the development of communication,
collaboration, critical thinking, and leadership abilities. Interactive methods such as
group discussions, role plays, debates, project-based learning, and problem-solving
activities create opportunities for learners to demonstrate initiative, responsibility, and
teamwork. The study highlights how these methods contribute to building self-
confidence, decision-making skills, and social interaction among students.
