The paper “Application of modern methods in teaching Romanian as a foreign language" presents various modern methods successfully applied in the process of teaching/learning Romanian as a foreign language. To know a foreign language, especially in a globalized world, in a constantly evolving society, is now largely dictated by the need for communication. The creative use of various modern methods/techniques during Romanian language lessons for non-native speakers indisputably contributes to efficiently increase the interaction teacher-student as well as studentstudent. The use of modern teaching-learning-assessment methods does not mean the exclusion of traditional methods, but a successful combination of them, taking into account the level students’ language skills.
