Abstract :Along with traditional issues, educationalists nowadays raise many new ones, among them is the correlation of the universal and the national education patterns relating to the ratio of teaching and learning, instruction and upbringing. The emphasis of on learning and instruction is more characteristic of modern education theories of English-speaking countries while in Russian speaking countries they still pay particular attention at educational establishments to teaching and upbringing alongside with guided and independent learning. It is revealed in the article how the content of the major national trends in the education discourse on these topics is influenced not only by historical and cultural environment but also by the language factors, particularly by etymology of the correlative basic educational terms related to education, teaching, and learning in English and Russian and their position in the lexical subsystems. Some concerns about speech communication skills in education of the 21-st century are expressed.
