This article investigates the theoretical and methodological foundations of forming communication competence among learners at various stages of the educational system, encompassing primary, secondary, and higher education levels. The study emphasizes the critical role of communication competence as a fundamental skill necessary for academic achievement and professional development in the 21st century. Through a comprehensive analysis of pedagogical frameworks and empirical research, the paper proposes a multi-layered model for developing communicative abilities tailored to the cognitive and social maturity of learners at each educational stage. The findings indicate that systematic, level-appropriate instruction in communicative strategies yields significantly higher outcomes in students' linguistic and interpersonal skills.
