Why learn English in Malta?
Previously a British colony, English has been an official language since 1934.
English is the lingua franca in Malta. Signs and directions are mostly in English, everyday your students will meet people who mostly speak English. Although your students might be nervous being alone in a new country, Malta is hugely friendly. Your students can walk up to almost anyone and ask for help and they will be treated in a warm and helpful manner. Language students have been coming to Malta for more than 50 years so the Maltese population is very used to having language students around the country.
An EU country so safer and easier to travel to.
Being a full EU member state means your students can travel safer and easier. There are several daily flight connections from all over Europe, no visa requirements for EU students and relatively straightforward study visa programmes for short term language students from outside the EU. Being an EU country means that the country has a modern infrastructure that is improving all the time. Excellent bus transport, good health and safety standards and easy access to healthcare.
Over 300 days of sunshine each year.
Situated in the middle of the Mediterranean Sea, Malta is right on the southern edge of Europe making it sunny for almost the whole year. Waking up to sunshine and blue skies is enough to keep any language student happy they chose the right country to study in. A warn and dry climate makes life much easier and fun. Light mornings for a walk to school, sunny daytimes to enjoy lessons and free time. Warm evenings and stunning sunsets. A perfect place to combine study with leisure.
Almost 2 million tourists visit each year so perfect for a sunny vacation!
There must be a reason why almost 2 million tourists flock to Malta every year. Tourism is Malta's largest economy so the infrastructure is ready to welcome your students. There are several seaside resorts and a wide range of accommodation types close to the school. If your students want to combine study with education leisure time, Malta is a great place for both.
