New class style for JET

Improve your English with our new and improved classes.
We have been teaching with the Callan Method at Jet English College now for four years, and we have decided to change the format of our third hour lesson. Until now this lesson has been a revision hour to help students catch up with any work that they might have missed, or to give them a chance to practice material that they had already studied.
With the Callan Method normally the teacher asks a question twice and then helps the student with the answer so that the student is speaking without thinking, but we have decided to make the student work a little bit harder and make their own answers to the Callan Method questions. We also give the students words and ask them to make a sentence with them.
Of course, the teacher is ready to help and correct the students as much as they need and the classes are still fast moving and fun.
One of our students said. "I really look forward to the third hour class now because it is very difficult for me, but I think that it will really improve my English.
At JET English College we are always trying to make our school a better place for studying and this development is an exciting one for us.
