Conclusion:

• A successful communication is not limited to know linguistic rules only (linguistic competence), but also non-linguistic factors, which are reflected on culture, lifestyle, social norms, history of people. Thus, within CEFR we teach not only linguistic competences, but also sociolinguistic, pragmatic, strategic competences. So far, in Uzbekistan, we have mastered how to teach linguistic competence (i.e. rule-based teaching). The problem is to organize those activities and methods that include teaching other competences.
