The purpose of the article is to discuss how problem-based and professionally-oriented situations and the case study method have been adapted for use in the classroom to motivate students majoring in agriculture. The content pertaining the agricultural area was taken into the consideration. The study was conducted on 33 (93) students who were divided into subgroups in doing the tasks. Discussions, class activities, group and individual presentations were carried out in classrooms, using the board and computer. The results of the survey showed that these methods are significant not only for language but also relevant for specific subject learning.
