The Callan Method is a fast and effective system for the study of English by non-native speakers.
In short, this is a direct speaking method that ensures the student speaks English constantly throughout the lesson. Our English teachers ask the student a series of questions twice.
The question is first asked slowly then repeated quickly. The student thus has no time to translate the question into his/her own language and answers the question directly in English as a reflex. The teacher will help the student with the answer.
The Callan Method was invented to make students as involved as possible in the learning process, and at the same time to help them to make the best possible use of their time.
The Method is a rigorously structured program of instruction, divided into twelve stages.
Because the Method aims to get students to speak, classes hold the attention of students and learning English becomes stimulating and enjoyable.
The structure of the Method ensures that students increase their knowledge of grammar and vocabulary step by step. Students are never distracted by rare or complicated vocabulary, and instead can focus on speaking English.
Students at Eynsford College can make progress up to four times faster than at other traditional types of language school. As many tests have shown, they learn English in a quarter of the time by studying with the Callan Method:
- The best way to learn English is by speaking it constantly
- You learned to speak your own language by speaking it and not thinking it
- The Callan Method is a natural speaking method that gets you speaking English quickly, without wasting time trying to translate English words into your own language
Students like the Callan Method because it makes learning to speak English easier.
The Callan Method also stands out from traditional English because it requires students to speak English throughout the lesson rather than just think English.
The Callan Method covers all the basics of English grammar and the most essential vocabulary. By the time the student has completed all twelve stages of the Method, he will have mastered over 5500 of the most commonly used words of the English language.
The average English person uses a working vocabulary of 5,000 English words, so you will be well equipped to speak English as a second language with confidence!
