About the Callan Method

The Callan Method is a fast and very effective way to learn English as a foreign language for all students.

The method is designed specifically to improve a student’s listening and speaking abilities in a lively and active environment.

With its long record of achievement, the Callan Method is used successfully all over the world and helps many thousands of people every day to learn English quickly and efficiently.

At the Central School of English, we teach all our General English classes with the Callan Method.
