Abstract
Currently, our society is determined by various changes related to global events. The most significant of them, which also affected education, is the war in Ukraine and the wave of arrival of foreigners arriving to our territory. This is also related to the inclusion of pupils with a different mother tongue in primary and secondary schools and the growing need for teachers to use more often the didactics of the Slovak language as a second language in practice. The teachers also respond to the mentioned change with their demand for a flexible transfer of the methodology of the Slovak language and literature with an emphasis on the Slovak language as a second language which, however, has its own specifics. For this reason, it is necessary for teachers to develop their professional competences with the support of legitimate options within the framework of professional (further) education. In this paper, we focus on the description of the theoretical foundations of the term professional education of Slovak language and literature teachers with an emphasis on the teaching of the Slovak language as a second language. At the same time, the paper presents partial results of the research aimed at identifying and analyzing the educational needs of teachers of Slovak language and literature with an emphasis on Slovak as a second language.
