INNOVATIVE TEACHING : THE 3 STEPS UP METHOD

This teaching is inspired by natural language acquisition (Read about our differences below), which allows for rapid progress toward the goal. Taking into account everyone’s learning style plays a major role in this.

OUR DIFFERENCES
WHAT MAKES CALL INTERNATIONAL UNIQUE
Language schools are all similar, with their independent teachers. They are language dealers and only their prices are similar! " some HR managers tell us. Nothing could be further from the truth. See here why...
Call International has existed for over 30 years, which is a challenge in itself, in a market that sees new language schools flourish every year that will only exist for 2 or 3 years.
AN EXCLUSIVE TEACHING METHOD
Call International has developed an exclusive 3-step method, called " 3 Steps Up ", which imitates the natural learning process of a language. The target language is thus assimilated considerably much faster than with classical lessons. (This pedagogy is described under the title "Pedagogy". This pedagogical choice alone makes us different by the specific beacons it obliges us to set up.
THE INTEREST IN THE NEUROSCIENCES
What underlies all our pedagogical choices has been confirmed by numerous studies and discoveries about the brain. Be it in our ways of learning, memorization, long-term remembering or in the motivation, the pleasure of learning, the inhibitions and blocks we create, understanding the why allows us to do the how... or not to develop.
THE GUIDANCE OF OUR LANGUAGE TRAINERS
We choose them for the values we have in common, their sense of communication and encouragement, their patience, their compassion and their language skills. So that our teachers put into practice our pedagogical choices, we train them first through coaching during a week and then through continuous workshops. These pedagogical framework and guidance simply do not exist anywhere else!
AND THE LEARNER IN IT ?
Because they are also unique, during the initial training application we invite the candidate to fill out an online questionnaire called "learning profile". This allows us to understand how this learner approaches language teaching (his comfort and discomfort zones) and thus to speak “their” language as efficiently as possible. To this end, we have established several protocols : a thorough needs analysis, a refined evaluation of the four language skills and a questionnaire on the learning profile. The whole leads to the preparation of a complete evaluation report for the training evaluator and the language trainer.
INTEREST IN INNOVATIVE SOLUTIONS AND UPGRADES
Because our world is teeming with inventive ideas, it is our duty to remain vigilant and test tools for this purpose and possibly include them in our offerings. These tools can provide so many answers to challenges our students face. For example, it is that the Speech Power program is a unique combination that helps solve listening difficulties of students who are little at ease with languages. The Flex e-learning program uses the most developed platforms in the world in terms of content. Our pedagogical staff regularly follows specific trainings that propose new pedagogical tools in order to constantly adapt and improve our teaching.
ALL NEEDS ARE MET
Within the set of language programs proposed by Call International, our students with all learning profiles, levels will find a teaching program suitable to most needs. The beginner will find more his happiness in general language classes or personalized classes, while the advanced learner can participate in communication workshops such as Presentation Skills, Negociations Skills, Writing Skills etc. Intensive classes yes or no, private or group, distance or face-to-face, with general or work-oriented content, immersion in England, preparation for certifications, class content online are so many avenues that lead learners to quick success. There are also programs for children, teens and students. Coming full circle!
THE RESULTS : OUR CHALLENGE IS RAPID MISSION SUCCESS

The result ? CALL INTERNATIONAL obtains 94% overall satisfaction from its clients.

TEACHING METHOD
THE « 3 STEPS UP » METHOD
HANDLING A LANGUAGE MEANS: SPONTANEOUSLY UNDERSTANDING AND USING ITS CORRECT TERMS AND STRUCTURES, IN A GIVEN CONTEXT
We learned to speak at home, without books or notebooks. The teacher refined our language from reading, writing, sentence structure and spelling. Currently, we are able to express ourselves spontaneously.
These 3 phases (the intuitive phase at home, the analytical one at school and the practical one in a real context) are reflected in the 3-step method of CALL INTERNATIONAL.
This 3-step cycle makes it possible to quickly absorb the right reflexes, both oral and written, whatever your needs and your level.
Thanks to the "3 STEPS UP" method, the acquisition of the new (linguistic and nonverbal) behaviors is accelerated. And you are the winner!
