Abstract:

Abstract The main hypothesis in our article is that the contrastive study of languages can be very useful in the teaching of foreign languages, since it allows the teacher to discover the errors produced by the interference of the student's mother tongue, what will be essential to select and organize the necessary teaching materials. Starting from that principle, the objective of the present work is to carry out a study of the main peculiarities of the teaching of the Spanish language to Russian-speaking students, and analyze the problems and difficulties which these students find during the process of learning our language, due to the interference of their mother tongue. This will allow teachers of Spanish as a foreign language and teachers of the different education levels to adopt the corresponding strategies and measures.
