Callan for Business is a short course for learners wanting use English in professional settings, and is especially suited for those in managerial roles. Students should have a B1+/B2 level of general English (equivalent to Callan English Stage 8 or above) to benefit fully from the course.
Over the course of 40–60 hours, this course provides learners who can already communicate at intermediate level with an intense ‘injection’ of business-related English that will serve them well in a professional setting.
Callan for Business introduces and then provides efficient and lively oral practice with:
- around 700 business-related items of vocabulary
- many useful phrasal verbs
- common work-related language and idioms
Central to the course is the Callan Method listening and speaking practice, but it also provides students with a variety of vocabulary exercises and writing tasks.
The fact that they’re learning with the Callan Method means that students acquire lots of highly relevant vocabulary while simultaneously improving their listening ability, fluency, and pronunciation. They rapidly gain the confidence to handle any professional environment where English is used.
