If a person sets one goal in their life, no force can stop them….
1. The goal is to never give up.
2. The goal is to not forget the initial goal.
You tried to do something… But it didn’t work out… it didn’t work out, never complain, be patient. Every failure should encourage you. Get up and try. The result will be better than you expected.
We know that no matter how big the door is, it can be opened, and this is, of course, an effort. You should achieve such success that those around you will talk about your victories, not yourself. Only then will your willpower and effort develop even more…
Throughout my career, my students have asked me one question a lot.
—Teacher, who and what inspires you the most?
— I can get motivation from everyone and everything.
But throughout my career, there are magic words that wake me up every morning and help me teach my students…
Excuse me, if necessary, your colleague, who you have worked with for thirty years, sometimes rushes through the school threshold, even when the distance between you is only 10-15 meters, saying, “Okay, I’ll see you when I get inside,” but he’s waiting for me, he’s always waiting, now and in the future…
You might be wondering, what are these words? These are magical and shining words like the sun…
The words “WELCOME” written on the forehead of our school…

In other rows, downed seconds rot.
The ants are taking their share.
There is no white mold yet, no syrup brown bruises.
A pink cut is open, yellow sunlight pours out.
Hundreds of stars stored banked photosynthesis
and now my flashlight finds coins of the realm.
Elsewhere, food prices soar.
Here are the ants, taking their share.
Scavenging Peaches in the Sunlight
I refuse to swipe peaches from the trees.
The Mexican migrants worked these rows already.
What they left behind, on the ground,
are small orange fires as hot as the sunlight.
I fill a bag. The peaches begin to bruise themselves
by their own touches, so used they are
to hanging alone on a firm stem swept only by wind.
I refuse to swipe peaches from the trees.
No crop failure is because of me.
Sunlight pours everywhere. The shade is heatwave.
The breeze is heatwave. Soil is heatwave.
Sunlight envelops my honesty with brightness,
but there are no witnesses.
There are precious few tractors harvesting this year.
A trade war bankrupts farmers.
Scavengers survive by honesty, broadened by daylight,
the kind of honesty that has no witnesses.

Introduction: Youth is the most active, creative and promising stratum of any society. Their education, finding their place in the labor market and building an independent life are important for the stability and development of society. However, in today’s conditions of globalization and technological change, the increase in unemployment among young people is seen as an urgent social problem. Unemployment has a negative impact on society not only economically, but also socially and psychologically. The lack of participation in the labor market of young people, who constitute the most active and potential stratum of the population, threatens not only their personal lives, but also the sustainable development of society. Today, attention to youth in our country is one of the priority areas of state policy. Because the future and development of any society depend, first of all, on its educated, strong-willed, enterprising and healthy young generation. Therefore, large-scale reforms are being implemented in our country to comprehensively support young people and fully realize their potential.
The main causes of youth unemployment
The following factors contribute to youth unemployment:
1. Lack of professional skills that meet the demands of the labor market.
2.Lack of experience.
3. The disconnect between education and production.
4. Territorial imbalance (for example, lack of jobs in rural areas.
5. Lack or weakness of social connections.
Social consequences
Unemployment among youth causes a number of negative social processes in society:
1. Increased crime: Unemployed youth may be inclined to commit crimes for self-expression or to satisfy material needs.
2.Migration: Young people who cannot find work migrate to other countries or large cities in search of work, leading to demographic imbalance.
3. Social instability: Unemployed youth feel inequality and injustice in society more acutely, which leads to increased feelings of discontent.
.4Marriage and family delays: Due to lack of financial stability, young people are delaying or completely abandoning family formation.
Psychological consequences
Youth unemployment also directly affects a person’s mental state:
1. Depression and discouragement: Feeling useless in society, ineffective use of time, and lack of confidence in the future lead to psychological problems.
2. Low self-esteem: Young people who cannot find work feel helpless and incompetent.
3. Aggression or apathy: When unemployment lasts for a long time, people can fall into two extreme states: one is aggression towards society, and the other is complete apathy.
4. Social isolation: Unemployed youth are isolated from the majority and lose social connections.
Solutions: Unemployment among young people poses a great threat not only to their economic situation, but also to the social stability of society. To address this problem, the following are necessary:
1. Adapting the education system to the demands of the labor market;
2. Expand internship and training programs;
3. Support for youth startups and small businesses;
4. Establish psychological support centers and inform the general public.
In order to prevent unemployment from negatively affecting the lives of our youth, a number of measures are being taken, and various decrees and resolutions have been implemented. On measures to implement the tasks set out in the “Open Dialogue with Youth” of the President of the Republic of Uzbekistan (Decree No. PF-61 of March 26, 2025) to develop a long-term strategy aimed at introducing a digital social ecosystem to unite youth, form national values in the young generation, early identify their interests and needs based on artificial intelligence technologies, monetize their potential, and involve them in socially significant projects. Many decisions have been made, such as developing a procedure for allocating grants of up to 100 million soums by the Youth Affairs Agency to create national and useful media content that interests young people in science and organize the best intellectual shows, including mechanisms for selecting applicants and projects. From this, we can see that our country is paying great attention to the young generation and opening up wide opportunities for them. This document clearly demonstrates the constant attention of our President to young people and his desire to appreciate each of their achievements at the state level. Decree No. PF-61 includes not only material incentive measures, but also strategic goals aimed at improving the intellectual and creative potential of young people.

This article discusses the theoretical foundations of developing students’ communication competence, the importance of mastering their native language and improving the level of speech communication skills, and highlights the system of professionally significant qualities. It also emphasizes the need to focus on methodological support for diagnosing professional mastery.
Keywords: language education, ability to communicate, fostering the quality of enjoying communication, cultivating aesthetic education, developing independent thinking. The aim is to enhance student competence through such communication.
Main Part
Taking into account that language develops as society progresses, the issue of enriching native language teaching with new developmental methods is becoming increasingly relevant. Students should be explained that learning and teaching the secrets of our native language through interactive and innovative methods, while ensuring deep and nationally rooted understanding, is necessary.
In higher educational institutions, it is important to ensure the continuity of teaching the Uzbek language, strengthen students’ orthographic and stylistic literacy, and create mechanisms to raise language skills and communication competence to an advanced level.
The necessity of implementing reforms and modernizing the content of native language (Uzbek) education at all levels of schooling is essential. This enables students of higher education institutions to further develop their abilities of deep thinking, listening, and communicating in their mother tongue, while also applying innovative educational technologies in this process. Uzbek pedagogical scholars have underlined that developing students into well-rounded individuals requires systematic scientific-theoretical approaches. In Uzbekistan, purposeful and systematic measures are being carried out to improve the content and thematic quality of Uzbek language education as the national and state language.
For example, Doctor of Pedagogical Sciences, Professor U.I. Inoyatov emphasizes the theoretical and organizational-methodological foundations of monitoring and managing the quality of education, stressing that one of the important factors in professional and human thinking is language and speech competence. Methodologist M. Sobirova’s fundamental research explores theoretical and practical aspects of improving professional specialization. Researcher O.A. Abduquddusov addresses integrative approaches in training young and future specialists, focusing on solutions to the problems of thinking, language, and speech. D. Yuldasheva highlights the problem of preparing specialists with professional mastery and eloquent speech. Scholars such as Ibragimova G., Azimova I., Ziyodullayeva G., and Murodova A. explore issues such as developing interactive creativity, the psycholinguistic basis for improving linguistic skills in native language teaching, the role of rule systems in shaping communicative competence, and the importance of listening and comprehension in native language learning.
Teaching our national language requires clearly explaining and instilling the unique lifestyle, ethnography, and traditions of the Uzbek people that are preserved in the language. For this, it is essential to effectively use comparison, contrast, and generalization methods and technologies in teaching. It is the duty of a native language teacher to ensure that students understand the essence of concepts and terms, which are linguistic units. Therefore, a university teacher must themselves fully master Uzbek language and speech competence.
Based on the theoretical foundations of developing communication skills among university students, it can be said that language and speech etiquette are the essence of Uzbek national life. In any time, place, or society where good behavior and proper speech prevail among members of the community, that society prospers, its living conditions improve, and peace reigns.
When addressing the issue of improving students’ knowledge of their native language and communication skills, attention should first be directed toward identifying the system of professionally important qualities. This serves as both the basis and the methodological provision for diagnosing the dynamic individuality of a professionally skilled person.
Naturally, communication has several functions. The most frequently used is the conversation between interlocutors, beginning with greetings and extending to the highest levels of communication. National characteristics also dominate communication. Among Uzbeks, from a simple and sincere greeting to parting, such features are clearly visible.
Another important aspect of communication is that it encourages activity. Particularly in the educational process, communication creates activity. To meet the need for communication, a person must master the art of speech and etiquette. Communication is carried out through verbal expression.
In our wise nation, there are many proverbs and teachings about the rules of speaking, caution in the use of language, and the importance of thinking before uttering every word and sentence. One such saying states that a person’s honor and dignity are reflected in their cultured way of speaking. If one does not follow the etiquette of speech, their humanity will not be visible. If speech is expressed appropriately and meaningfully, it is better to listen in silence. Mastery of literary language requires not only spelling but also correct pronunciation, as these are two sides of the same coin. Deviating from literary pronunciation norms is equivalent to semi-literacy in writing.
The structural elements of speech communication include:
a) transmitting communicative information;
b) acting in interactive cooperation;
c) jointly perceiving in a perceptive way.
For example, in the communicative process, when a teacher explains a topic, they first set a communicative goal and then demand interactive actions (cooperation) from students. In practical and seminar classes, as well as lectures, the teacher addresses students with various questions and evaluates them accordingly. Most students show activity in this regard, though some find it very difficult to raise their hands and answer. A student forced to respond may show uncertainty in speech at the very communicative stage. Or, even if both sides act interactively, if they do not perceive the expressed idea together, the perceptive aspect of communication is disrupted, leading to poor comprehension of the lesson. Neglecting these aspects during communication results in misunderstanding.
Therefore, developing students’ speech communication culture should be determined in advance as parameters in the form of knowledge, skills, and abilities aligned with small-scale objectives. For example, the content of dialogue replicas forms separate units. Verbal communication is not limited to questions and answers; it also includes listening to the interlocutor, asking counter-questions, rejecting questions, encouraging action, making proposals, and so on. This requires the use of various lexical and grammatical tools and formulaic sentences. Hence, mastering speech communication (dialogue) requires a broad approach.
Our observations show that most sentences constructed and presented by students have logical connections, but the normative level of words and grammatical forms used to construct syntactic structures does not fully meet the requirements. Cases were observed where auxiliary words, word-forming, form-building, and syntactic relation-forming affixes were not used appropriately. To improve students’ native language knowledge and communication skills, teachers should encourage them to read more literary books, do more writing exercises, and develop the habit of working with dictionaries.
In higher education institutions, developing the speech competence of future specialists is crucial for encouraging creativity, carrying out projects, and fostering literary reading and writing practices. Developing students’ communication culture should be set in advance as parameters in the form of knowledge, skills, and abilities aligned with small-scale objectives.
From modern requirements, we can identify the following main ways and requirements for developing language and speech competence of future specialists, based on the content of education:
1. A specialist with sectoral scientific-theoretical training and creativity must possess speech competence.
2. Engaging in scientific-research and experimental activities, they must be able to express the realities of their work in both written and oral forms appropriate to speech styles.
3. When introducing new technologies, they must be able to fully explain and demonstrate their specific features using professional terminology.
4. Through modern electronic media, they must be able to express virtual communication clearly, simply, concisely, and without vagueness, using national and professional styles. They must ensure the clarity and validity of information through the words they use.
Conclusion
The successful resolution of political, economic, and social tasks in society largely depends on how well each member of society knows their native language and can apply it in practice—that is, in speech situations, environments, and among people of different social groups—freely, clearly, simply, and fluently.
Cultivating in students the ability to communicate correctly, fluently, and meaningfully, while at the same time enhancing their aesthetic taste and developing their independent thinking capacity, is one of the key tasks in achieving communicative literacy and developing student competence.

The main essence of The Clinging Bird is as follows:
Main Character – Feride: Feride, the central figure of the novel, loses her parents at an early age and faces many difficulties. She grows up in the care of her grandmother and aunts and attends a French boarding school. At the threshold of adulthood, a sudden betrayal from someone close causes her to leave home. She begins working as a teacher, meeting many people, influencing their lives, and ultimately transforming her own.
Theme of Love: The novel focuses heavily on the love between Feride and Kamran. Their relationship explores emotions such as love, separation, sorrow, and hope.
Social Life Scenes: The novel reflects the lifestyle, traditions, struggles, and transformations of early 20th-century Turkish society. Events during World War I are also depicted.
Hardships and Struggles: Feride faces many life challenges — loneliness, social pressure, and romantic struggles — but she perseveres and continues with her life.
Additionally, the novel reveals the place of women in Turkish society at the time, the dynamics between men and women, and the clash between traditional values and modernity. A distinctive feature of the novel is its strong female protagonist, vivid portrayal of various Turkish regions, emphasis on education, loyalty, forgiveness, and the tension between old and new values. It deeply explores honesty, patience, and humanity.
The novel appeals to readers of all ages, serving as an example and inspiration. Its events are depicted in such a way that they encompass education, culture, human interactions, social challenges, forgiveness, and emotional resilience — all in one narrative.

Written in 1922, the book has won the hearts of readers across the world and has been adapted into several films and TV series. The 2013 television adaptation of The Clinging Bird gained significant popularity. However, the novel remains especially beloved by its devoted readers in its original literary form.
The Clinging Bird, a masterpiece of Turkish literature, can be considered an inspiring and spiritually rich treasure trove that continues to influence writers. It is a deeply meaningful, culturally valuable work that meets the highest artistic standards.
