The Calistan Method
Daily Speaking Practice— for Spanish fluency
Almost all students struggle when speaking
If you’ve spent months—or even years—studying Spanish and still struggle to speak with any level of fluency, you’re not alone. Reading and writing are one thing. Speaking is something else entirely.
It’s fast. It’s unpredictable. And what feels like practice is really performance—done under pressure, in real time, with little room to pause or revise. In short, even persistent effort can be frustrating—and most people simply give up.
Speaking is a unique skill that requires a unique approach to master.
The Calistan Method puts you on the path to fluency
Watch this 2-minute video on the course origins and why it works.
This introduces a unique, modern approach for building Spanish fluency—designed for intermediate or advanced learners and built entirely around daily speaking. It’s structured in a game-like format, deeply personalized, and powered by largely free technology and AI that make consistent practice easy, enjoyable, and effective.
You’ll learn how to study less, speak more, and build a habit that leads to real fluency.
Curious how this actually works?
The best way to find out is to try it yourself. We’re offering a limited pilot of the Calistan Method—an easy, supportive way to build a daily speaking habit and see real progress.
It’s self-paced and designed to fit into your day—but like any habit, it only works if you do.
The course unfolds over roughly six weeks and follows two clear phases. First, you’ll learn the core methodology. Then you’ll put it into daily practice, supported by personalized 1-on-1 check-ins to keep you consistent and progressing.
Obviously, you won’t walk away with fluency. But you will gain something almost as valuable: a fun, repeatable daily habit for making real progress to get you there. Here’s a brief overview of the course:
Customizing Your Start
We begin with a detailed questionnaire to personalize your practice to your level, goals, and interests. From the start, every exercise feels relevant, aligned with your abilities, and designed to help you progress with confidence.
Creating Your Toolkit
Set up a simple set of apps and tools that work seamlessly on both phone and laptop. With clear step-by-step guidance, you’ll be ready to study anytime and stay consistent no matter where you are.
Practicing with Purpose
Learn the core study method: speaking full sentences aloud, using highly personalized prompts. You’ll practice smarter, not longer—training your brain to speak clearly and think differently.
Building a Daily Rhythm
Together we’ll design a routine that fits your life, using proven habit-building principles to make practice automatic. With ongoing 1-on-1 check-ins, you’ll stay consistent, accountable, and see steady progress over time.
