Abstract

The article deals with the analysis of the scientific-pedagogical literature and concerns the problems of bi- lingual education and its potential in the organization of bilingual teaching. It was concluded that bilingualism developed in Canada due to colonization of the territories by Great Britain and France, so economic and social factors necessitated mastery of two languages and the aim of the bilingual education is to form language and cultural tolerance. Bilingual curricula provide education in two or more languages and develop language and cultural apprehension.
