This study provides a comprehensive analysis of multilingual education, highlighting key issues, methodologies, and future directions in this area. Based on the theoretical foundations of Vygotsky and Krashen, as well as practical approaches such as project-based learning and task-based language learning, the study highlights the importance of multilingual competence for future educators. The key findings highlight the need for reforms in teacher training, starting with teaching in the students' native language, which promotes deep understanding and active participation in the educational process. Serious problems related to teacher resources and training are discussed, as well as the adaptation of teaching strategies to linguistic diversity. The presented results make a significant contribution to the existing literature, offering solutions to improve the effectiveness of multilingual educational strategies and their implications for future teaching practices. The recommendations of this study suggest areas for future research, including the development of comprehensive teacher training programs that will be adapted to the needs of a multilingual educational environment.
