Typical Day

The language courses aim to help students become more confident and correct in the use of modern English. They are designed to develop and consolidate the student's competence in the use of the English Language. The courses emphasise the four core components of successful language use - speaking, listening, writing and reading. Skills in these four areas are developed through the use of materials that focus on the everyday use of the English language.

There are six levels of study to choose from. Beginner, Elementary, Pre-Intermediate, Intermediate, Upper-Intermediate and Advanced.

On the first day, the student takes a level test and has a short interview in order to determine placement in the most appropriate class.

These courses are designed for students to develop and improve their English language skills in a stimulating and practical way.

Sleeping and meals

Host Family: living with a host family provides a unique opportunity to experience the Maltese culture first hand by living as a Maltese and participating in the customs and traditions of Malta. Students who live with host families find their English improves dramatically through conversation and daily involvement with their host family. Maltese families offer students an English language immersion experience while providing them with the security and friendliness of a family home. This is especially important for students living away from home for the first time.

Host families are carefully interviewed and selected prior to student placement and are monitored throughout the period of the stay. They are located in close proximity to the school and major bus routes. Placements are made with consideration for any special student requirements.

The School Residence: provides a safe environment and convenient alternative to hotel or host family accommodation. Situated just 50 metres away from the school and offering clean and spacious 1 or 2 double bedroomed apartments complete with kitchenette, living/dining area, and full bathroom, Chantilly Court offers excellent value for students who prefer a self-catering apartment. It includes an outdoor swimming pool and sun terrace, games room, TV lounge and bar, thus providing ample entertainment for students of all ages. Moreover, it is positioned opposite the University sports grounds which include an olympic sized swimming pool and running track.

Hotels: many hotels in all categories from tourist to luxury 5 Star are available on the island.
