Annotation: The article touches upon the current problem of developing comprehension skills for special lectures in English among philology students. Despite having a high general level of language proficiency, students face significant difficulties in understanding authentic academic discourse due to its specific lexical, syntactic, and discursive features. The study aims to assess linguistics students’ current comprehension skills for specialized English- language lectures and to develop a methodological task package for improving these skills. The subject of the study is the process of teaching comprehension of specialized English-language lectures to students of language universities. The conducted empirical research revealed problematic areas in the development of a range of specific comprehension skills for lectures on linguistic topics in English, stemming from linguistic and socio- cultural difficulties inherent in the spoken text. Based on the diagnostic results that identified typical deficits in comprehension skills, a methodological task package was developed to foster these skills. The article emphasizes the necessity of a systematic, strategy-based approach to teaching academic comprehension, which goes beyond general language training.
