Résumé
Two opposite trends in evaluating the bilingualism effect on student's academic achievements in math are analyzed in the paper: bilingualism as a resource or as a problem. As the linguistic features and practices of bilinguals form a unitary linguistic system which interacts in dynamic ways, bilingualism should be considered a human's resource with a large potential. From this theoretical framework, the basic qualities of mathematical communication in L1 and L2 (correctness, accuracy, coherence, way of translanguaging) and their descriptors are described. These qualities are used to describe how bilingualism influences the mathematical communication skills of pre-service bilingual Tatar-Russian mathematics teachers.
