The formation of a culture of speech is one of the main components of the professional training of future journalists. At the Faculty of Philology of the Transnistrian State University, second-year students of the "Journalism" department are taught the discipline "Fundamentals of Oral and Written Speech Culture". As a result, students should master the norms of the Russian literary language and develop skills of their practical use in their daily educational activities. An effective methodological technique is to analyze the specific features of materials of different genres (for example, TV news and information programs) taking into account their linguistic and stylistic specifics and then students write their own materials.
