Аннотация: Рост международной образовательной и профессиональной
мобильности усилил значение экзаменов по английскому языку. Наиболее
распространённые тесты — IELTS, TOEFL и PTE — опираются на различные
лингвистические и культурные концепции оценки владения языком. В статье
проводится сравнительный анализ структуры, критериев оценивания и
методологических подходов указанных экзаменов, основанный на авторитетных
источниках [1–5]. Особое внимание уделяется узбекским обучающимся, для
которых фонологические особенности языка и специфика образовательной
среды заметно влияют на результаты тестирования. Сделан вывод о том, что
выбор оптимального экзамена зависит от индивидуальных особенностей,
культурного опыта и предпочитаемого стиля коммуникации.
Ключевыек слова: Экзамены по английскому языку, IELTS, TOEFL, PTE
лингвистический анализ, культурные факторы, принципы оценивания, узбекские
учащиеся, автоматизированное оценивание, академическая коммуникация,
интегрированные навыки.
