In the reality of Covid-19, this aspect is increasingly important and subjected to discussion in order to find the ways and solutions that would help to facilitate the process of integrating both lecturers and students into educating. The main issues the article looks into are teaching speaking distantly and getting involved into communicative process by means of available online tools. Speaking is one of the most common producing processes for students learning foreign languages in communicatively oriented classrooms. Many things were usual routine for lecturers and students but now they can cause the emotional ups and downs for both sides. Lecturers have to do some action research in order to become more informed and efficient in the learning web-based environment. Therefore, a research into the most effective online instruments that assist in teaching online was conducted on students of different departments of two universities in Kyiv. As a result, a language teaching framework that draws from this research is presented in the article. New technology is changing the future of work with unprecedented speed and intensity.
