Becoming a young specialist is associated with the formation of a professional position - determining a position in the system of relations with colleagues and students. The importance of personal abilities to self-development and self-design, flexibility, openness to the knowledge of the new, the presence of which, as well as individual behavior, characterize the competitiveness of a specialist, especially in the conditions of European integration is also noted. The relevance of the implementation of interactive teaching methods, particularly the storytelling, as a method in the professional training of future pedagogues, is theoretically substantiated. It is determined that the main difference between storytelling is the ease, lack of compelling suggestions; while listening or reading such a story, the audience will draw the necessary conclusion and will remember a lot more information. Submitting educational material in the form of storytelling develops the imagination, logic and enhances students' cultural education. Storytelling can be considered universal because its possibilities are wide and independent of time and place. Possibilities of introducing storytelling into the educational process of higher education institutions in Ukraine are analyzed in the article. The basic features of storytelling are confirmed, which affirm the relevance of the use of this method in working with students. A list of modern educational tools for creating quality content and interesting styling is presented, because in the educational process it is important not only to use such a method as storytelling but also to diversify the presentation and design of stories
