This article explores the significance of modern teaching methods in technical schools and their impact on students’ professional competence, creativity, and practical skills. In the contemporary educational environment, traditional teacher-centered instruction is no longer sufficient to meet the demands of the labor market and technological development. Therefore, technical schools are increasingly integrating innovative pedagogical approaches such as interactive learning, project-based learning, problem-based learning, digital technologies, blended learning, and competency-based education. The article analyzes the advantages of these methods, the role of teachers in modern education, and the challenges faced during implementation. Furthermore, recommendations for improving teaching quality and enhancing student engagement are discussed. The research highlights that modern methods contribute significantly to developing independent thinking, collaboration, communication skills, and technical proficiency among students.
