Annotation: The article examines the application of mod- ern technology of teaching a foreign language — microle- arning. The author reveals the concept of microlearning as a technology that breaks educational material into small mod- ules or microblocks in the era of the influence of clip think- ing on learning, which leads to a superficial perception of information and difficulties with concentration. The author examines the specific aspects of microlearning as an effec- tive tool in teaching English to law students. The problem of learning legal English is knowledge of the basics of legal terminology and the ability to draw up legal documents. The large amount of content of the work program and the com- paratively small number of practical exercises lead to the fact that students have difficulties in applying the acquired knowledge. The relevance of the research is also determined by the need to adapt teaching methods to the needs of mod- ern society and the specifics of the professional activities of future lawyers. All of the above requires the development and application of new technologies in the learning pro- cess. The purpose of the research is to develop and test the effectiveness of the use of this technology in modern English teaching for law students at a non-linguistic university. The author reveals the features of microlearning, its principles, components, and reveals its potential to improve the quality of teaching a foreign language to law students. The research can become the basis for further scientific work in the field of microlearning of legal languages or teaching foreign lan- guages in general. The results of the study show how effec- tive microlearning is for learning legal English compared to traditional methods.
