ABSTRACT

This article outlines urgent issues regarding the supervision of Chinese students receiving Russian-language distance education. This study aims to determine how effectively Chinese students can learn Russian monologue through distant learning. The effectiveness of training can be increased by using online resources as cutting-edge research tools, as this paper discusses. Contrary to popular thinking, the essay's author believes that online learning can benefit Chinese students. Although there are advantages and disadvantages to distance learning, a working educator must find ways to overcome these obstacles to maximize potential gains. It is challenging to learn Russian as a foreign language over a long distance due to the communicative-activity approach, the emphasis on the learning process of direct interaction of subjects of learning, the mastery of the phonetic side of speech, and the familiarity with the culture of the language's native country. Numerous videos about Anton Pavlovich Chekhov's life and works are available and could be utilized to teach Russian to Chinese students. It was found that the difficulties of distance learning in the context of the Covid-19 epidemic can be overcome through a continuous search for distance learning methods, forms, and means, taking into account the national and cultural characteristics of Chinese students, adjusting the structure of the educational process, choosing the best Internet platforms, and developing technological innovations like real-world virtual simulations.
