Welcome to the Callan Method
Learning English with the Callan™ Method is fast and effective!
The Callan Method is a teaching method created specifically to improve your English 
in an intensive atmosphere. The teacher is constantly asking questions, so you are 
hearing and using the language as much as possible. When you speak in the lesson, 
the teacher corrects your grammar and pronunciation mistakes, and you learn a lot 
from this correction.
The Callan Method teaches English vocabulary and grammar in a carefully 
programmed way, with systematic revision and reinforcement. In the lesson, there is 
a lot of speaking and listening practice, but there is also reading and writing so that 
you revise and consolidate what you have learned.
With the Callan Method, the teacher speaks quickly so that you learn to understand 
English when it is spoken at natural speed. This also means that everyone is 
concentrating hard all the time.
English in a quarter of the time
The Callan Method can teach English in a quarter of the time taken by any other 
method on the market. Instead of the usual 350 hours necessary to get the average 
student to the level of the Cambridge Preliminary English Test (PET), the Callan 
Method can take as little as 80 hours, and only 160 hours for the Cambridge First 
Certificate in English (FCE).
The method is suitable for students of all nationalities, and ages. It requires no 
equipment (not even a whiteboard) or other books, and can be used for classes at 
private schools, state schools and universities. It is also possible for students to use 
the books to practise with each other when they are not at school.
In addition to this, students can practise their English online using the interactive 
exercises, which are available to students who study at licensed schools. Ask your 
school for details.
The Callan Method in practice
A Callan Method English lesson is probably very different from lessons you have 
done in the past. You do not sit in silence, doing a reading comprehension test or a 
grammar exercise from a book. You do not have ‘free conversation’, where you only 
use the English you already feel comfortable with. Of course, activities like this can 
help you, but you can do them at home with a book, or in a coffee bar. In a Callan 
Method lesson, you are busy with important activities that you cannot do outside 
the classroom. You are listening to English all the time. You are speaking English a 
lot, and all your mistakes are corrected. You learn quickly because you are always 
surrounded by English. There is no silence and no time to get bored or lose your 
concentration. And it is also fun! 
So, what exactly happens in a Callan Method lesson, and how does it work?
The teacher asks you questions
The Callan Method books are full of questions. Each question practises a word, an 
expression, or a piece of grammar. The teacher is standing, and asks the questions 
to the students one by one. You never know when the teacher will ask you, so you 
are always concentrating. When one student finishes answering one question, the 
teacher immediately starts to ask the next question.
The teacher speaks quickly 
The teacher in a Callan Method lesson speaks quickly. This is because, in the real 
world, it is natural to speak quickly. If you want to understand normal English, you 
must practise listening to quick natural speech and become able to understand 
English without first translating into your language. This idea of not translating is at 
the centre of the Callan Method; this method helps you to start thinking in English.
Also, we do not want you to stop and think a lot about the grammar while you are 
speaking. We want you to speak as a reflex, instinctively. And do not worry about 
mistakes. You will, naturally, make a lot of mistakes in the lessons, but Callan Method 
teachers correct your mistakes, and you learn from the corrections. When you go 
home, of course it will help if you read your book, think about the grammar, study 
the vocabulary, and do all the things that language students do at home – but the 
lessons are times to practise your listening and speaking, with your books closed!
The teacher says every question twice, and helps you with the 
answer
In the lesson, the teacher speaks quickly, so we say the questions twice. This way, 
you have another chance to listen if you did not understand everything the first time.
The teacher then immediately says the beginning of the answer. This is to help you 
(and ‘push’ you) to start speaking immediately. So, for example:
Teacher: “Are there two chairs in this room? Are there two chairs in this room? No, 
there aren’t ...”
Student (immediately): “No, there aren’t two chairs in this room; there are twelve 
chairs in this room.”
If the teacher does not ‘push’ you by giving you the beginning of the answer, you 
might start to think too much, and translate into your language.
The teacher will speak along with you all the time while you are saying your answer. 
So, if you forget a word or you are not sure what to say, you will always hear the next 
word or two from the teacher. You should repeat after the teacher, but immediately 
try again to continue with the answer yourself. You must always try to continue 
speaking, and only copy the teacher when you cannot continue alone. That way, you 
will become more confident and learn more quickly. Never simply wait for help from 
the teacher and then copy – you will not improve so quickly.
Long answers, with the same grammar as the question
We want you to practise your speaking as much as possible, so you always make 
complete sentences when you speak in the lesson, using the same grammatical 
structure as in the question. For example:
Teacher: “About how many pages are there in this book?”
Student: “There are about two hundred pages in that book.”
In this way, you are not just answering a question; you are making full sentences with 
the vocabulary and the grammar that you need to learn.
Correction by imitation 
With the Callan Method, the teacher corrects all your mistakes the moment you make 
them. The teacher corrects you by imitating (copying) your mistake and then saying 
the correct pronunciation/form of the word. For example, if you say “He come from 
Spain”, the teacher quickly says “not come - comes”. This correction by imitation 
helps you to hear the difference between your mistake and the properdługopis

You should immediately repeat the correct word and continue with your sentence. 
You learn a lot from this correction of your mistakes, and constant correction results 
in fast progress.
Contracted forms
In the lesson, the teacher uses contractions (e.g. the teacher says “I don’t” instead of 
“I do not”). This is because it is natural to use contractions in spoken English and you 
must learn to understand them. Also, if you want to sound natural when you speak, 
you must learn to use contractions. 
Lesson structure
Every school is different, but a typical 50-minute Callan lesson will contain about 35 
minutes of speaking, a 10-minute period for reading, and a 5-minute dictation. The 
reading practice and the dictation are often in the middle of the lesson.
In the reading part, you read and speak while the teacher helps you and corrects 
your mistakes. In the dictation, you practise your writing, but you are also listening 
to the teacher. So, a 50-minute Callan lesson is 50 minutes of spoken English with 
no silence!
No chatting
Although the Callan Method emphasises the importance of speaking practice, this 
does not mean chatting (free conversation). You learn English quickly with the Callan 
Method partly because the lessons are organised, efficient, fast and busy. There is no 
time wasted on chatting; this can be done before or after the lesson. 
Chatting is not a good way to spend your time in an English lesson. First, only some of 
the students speak. Second, in a chat, people only use the English that they already 
know. Third, it is difficult for a teacher to correct mistakes during a conversation.
The Callan Method has none of these problems. All through the lesson, every student 
is listening and speaking, practising different vocabulary and structures, and learning 
from the correction of their mistakes. And nobody has time to get bored!
Repeat, repeat, repeat!
Systematic revision
In your native language, you sometimes read or hear a word that you do not already 
know. You usually need to read or hear this new word only once or twice in order 
to remember it and then use it yourself. However, when you are learning a foreign 
language, things are very different. You need to hear, see and use words and 
grammatical structures many times before you really know them properly. So your 
studies must involve a system of revision (repeating what you have studied before). 
This is absolutely essential. If there is no system of revision in your studies, you will 
forget what you have studied and will not be able to speak or understand better than 
before. 
In every Callan Method lesson, of course you learn new English, practise it, and 
progress through your book. However, you also do a lot of revision so that you can 
really learn what you have studied. Your teacher can decide how much revision your 
class needs, but it will always be an important part of your studies. 
Also, because there is a lot of revision, it is not important for you to understand 
everything the first time; it gets easier. The revision with Callan is automatic and 
systematic. Every day you do a lot of revision and then learn some new English.
Revision in reading and dictation too
The reading and dictation practice in the lessons is part of Callan’s systematic revision 
as well. First, you learn a new word in the speaking part of the lesson; a few lessons 
later, you meet it again when you are reading; finally, the word appears in a dictation. 
This is all written into the Callan Method; it happens automatically.
Correcting your dictations
With the Callan Method, there is little or no homework to do, but it is very important 
that you correct your dictations. These are printed in your book and so you can easily 
correct them at home, on the bus, or wherever. It is important to do this because it 
helps you to learn the written forms of the words you have already studied in earlier 
lessons.
Your first lessons with the Callan Method
During your first lesson with the Callan Method, all of the questions and some of the 
vocabulary are new for you; you have not done any revision yet. For this reason, the 
teacher may not ask you many questions. You can sit and listen, and become more 
familiar with the method - the speed, the questions, the correction etc. 
History of the Callan Method – Robin Callan
Robin Callan is the creator of the Callan Method. He 
owns the Callan School in London’s Oxford Street. 
He also runs Callan Publishing Limited, which 
supplies Callan Method books to schools all over 
the world.
Robin Callan grew up in Ely, Cambridgeshire, England. 
In his early twenties, he went to Italy to teach English 
in Salerno. Although he enjoyed teaching, Robin thought that the way in which 
teachers were expected to teach their lessons was inefficient and boring. He became 
very interested in the mechanisms of language learning, and was sure that he could 
radically improve the way English was taught. 
He remained in Italy and started to write his own books for teaching English. He 
used these in his own classes and, over the following ten years, gained an immense 
amount of practical experience and a reputation for teaching English quickly and 
effectively. 
When he returned to England, he opened his school in Oxford Street. As the method 
became more and more popular with students, the school grew and moved to larger 
premises. Robin continued to write his Callan Method books, and today the method 
is used by schools all over the world.
Robin Callan has always been passionate about English literature, especially poetry. 
For this reason, he bought The Orchard Tea Garden in Grantchester, near Cambridge, 
which attracts thousands of tourists each year. Throughout the 20th century, it 
was a popular meeting place for many famous Cambridge University students and 
important figures from English literature, such as Rupert Brooke, Virginia Woolf and 
E.M. Forster. Today, it is also home to the Rupert Brooke Museum.
Mr Callan now lives in Grantchester, but still plays an active role in the management 
of the Callan School in London.
The Callan School in London’s Oxford Street
The largest private school in London 
The Callan School in Oxford Street is the largest private school in London teaching 
English as a foreign language. Depending on the time of year, the school employs 
between 60 and 100 teachers and has an average of 1600 students passing through 
its doors every day. This number rises to more than 2000 in the middle of summer, 
similar to a small university.

Do Revision Exercise 1
Revision exercises 
In your book, you sometimes see ‘Do Revision Exercise …’. These exercises are at the 
end of each stage, and you can do them at home. This is a good idea because these 
exercises give you extra practice with the English you are learning at school. With the 
Callan Method, you learn quickly, but if you want to learn more quickly, you should 
study with your book, listen to the audio files, and do the revision exercises.
Write long answers to all the questions, like the answers that you say in the lessons. 
Then correct the exercise by looking at the printed answers in your book. Remember, 
the exercises are not for class; you do them outside the lesson for extra practice.
