Abstract
This article explores the theoretical and practical foundations for developing communicative competence in future English language teachers through the principles of Universal Design for Learning (UDL). The study examines the structural components of communicative competence, identifies key stages of its development, and classifies its proficiency levels. Special attention is given to how UDL principles contribute to inclusive, flexible, and effective language teacher education. The paper argues that integrating UDL into teacher training enhances not only linguistic proficiency but also pedagogical adaptability and communicative effectiveness.
