How do we teach?
Active Participation
Every student is fully engaged during the lesson. Classes are lively and energetic, maintaining students’ focus and enthusiasm from start to finis
Continuous Speaking
There is no downtime—students are constantly speaking or listening. Only the target language is used, creating a fully immersive environment.
Speaking as a Priority
We focus on teaching students to speak accurately from the very beginning, just as they learned their native language.
Other skills are developed alongside speaking, but clear communication comes first.
Immediate Feedback
Teachers provide instant corrections to help students refine
their speaking and eliminate mistakes as they occur.
Consistent Repetition
Lessons incorporate systematic repetition, with each topic reviewed at least seven times across multiple classes to solidify understanding.
Variety of Lecturers
Students regularly work with different lecturers, helping them become familiar with a range of accents and teaching styles, which enhances their listening and speaking abilities.
How do others teach?
Limited Participation
In traditional classes, students often only speak when they feel comfortable or are directly prompted. Much of the lesson is spent working silently on written exercises or reading answers aloud.
Inefficient Time Use
Lessons often include unnecessary pauses, and the students native language is frequently used, reducing exposure to the target language.
Mistakes Go Unnoticed
Pronunciation and grammar errors are rarely corrected, causing students to repeat and reinforce incorrect habits.
Insufficient Repetition
Key material is only reviewed occasionally, making it harder for students to retain what they’ve learned.
Sacrificing one’s own time
If you want to consolidate the material, you have to devote a lot of your own time at home.
One Teaching Style
With the same teacher leading every class, students miss out on exposure to diverse accents and perspectives.
The Callan Method provides a dynamic and interactive learning experience, ensuring students build confidence and fluency through continuous practice, immediate feedback, and consistent progress.
