Abstract
This article is devoted to the current problem of using authentic texts in the process of teaching English to university students. The authors consider the pros and cons of using authentic texts in teaching language university students and argue for the need to introduce these texts into the English language educational process at earlier stages of education. The article, based on a survey conducted among students of the Faculty of Foreign Philology of the National University of Uzbekistan, provides specific justification for the need to include authentic texts in the educational process.
