Speak English Confidently with the Callan Method

Description

Targeted to B1 speakers or above. Read more »

At the B1 CEFR level, learners comprehend the main points of clear texts on familiar subjects and handle most situations while traveling. They can produce simple connected texts, expressing experiences, opinions, and plans in a concise manner.

Using English clearly and correctly is gaining importance in more and more everyday situations. From career advancement to intercultural contexts in both online and face-to-face contexts, deploying English speaking and writing skills is fundamental.

Using the Callan method, this English course will aim to make the participants speak English confidently and to improve their overall fluency for different levels of knowledge.

The Callan Method is a fast and dynamic approach to language teaching and learning that consists of guided conversations with native speakers. In the lessons, students are encouraged to speak from the moment they enter the classroom.

The learners actively practice English during the lesson, speaking the entire time. The teacher corrects all mistakes in real-time with examples while guiding them through all facets of English. Repetition makes the learner more fluent and, most importantly, raises their confidence, and frees them from the fear of speaking.

The course will improve listening, comprehension, and speaking skills. Even if you have little or limited understanding, you can advance your English skills in a short time with the help of our native English teachers in a dynamic and active learning environment. Participants will also be guided through relevant workshops that will assist in their daily operations.

This Erasmus+ course is suited for basic (CEFR level: A2.1., A2.2.) intermediate (CEFR level: B1.1., B1.2.), and advanced levels (CEFR level: B.2.1 and onwards).
