They bring international experience, recognised qualifications, and a passion for teaching English as a foreign language. From CELTA to TEFL and advanced degrees, each teacher is carefully selected for their ability to connect with students and inspire confidence. Meet our team below. ![Gillian Pritchett](/sites/default/files/2025-10/gillian_0.png) ### Gillian Pritchett #### CELTA Hi, I'm Gillian. I was born and raised in the UK, but I've traveled extensively, lived in France and Germany, and for 12 years in Canada. I've been a Malta fan since my first visit many years ago and love spending extended chunks of time here. Working for Maltalingua is a true joy thanks to supportive colleagues and motivated students. I'm CELTA qualified and very experienced teaching face-to-face and online. My focus is business English as my international business career means I can really help students use their English in as near to real-life contexts as possible. My specialist areas are finance, strategy, marketing, negotiations, and HRM. I studied French and Geography at university, then qualified as an accountant. I also have an MA in European Industrial Relations and HR and a post-grad diploma in Marketing Management. I enjoy discovering other countries, learning languages, reading, and sports especially running and cycling. And... I'm a qualified gong practitioner... ![Benjamin Cook](/sites/default/files/2025-01/ben-stay-teacher.jpg) ### Benjamin Cook #### CELTA Hi, I'm Ben! I was born in the UK, but I've spent much of my life hopping between countries, soaking up cultures, and collecting stories along the way. For the past ten years, I've taught English in places as varied as the USA, China, Hungary, Slovakia, and Vietnam - and somehow Malta keeps pulling me back. This is my fourth time here, and I can't get enough of the sunshine, sea, and amazing people. I'm CELTA qualified and have taught both face to face and online, but what I love most is helping students grow in confidence and actually enjoy using their English in real-life situations. When I'm not in the classroom, you'll find me exploring new countries, chatting and laughing with students long after lessons end, and learning something new every day. The next exciting step on my journey? Jumping into a Master's degree - because the adventure never really stops. Photo Coming Soon ### Ben Coffey #### CELTA Hi, I'm Ben. I'm from Wolverhampton in central England. I completed my teacher-training many moons ago with the British Council, an achievement that still surprises many people. Since then, I've taught thousands of students, some of them even at the right level, across a dozen countries. Outside of the classroom I have a wide range of interests, few of which are relevant (or suitable) here. My teaching style has been described as "unique" and "memorable" but rarely in writing. (I really enjoy accompanying people as they discover the wonderfully confusing mess we call English.) ![Chloe Murray](/sites/default/files/2025-10/chloe.png) ### Chloe Murray #### CELTA I am a CELTA-qualified English teacher with a degree in Education and English and over 7 years of teaching experience. Throughout my career, I have worked with learners of different ages and backgrounds, but I particularly enjoy teaching children. Watching them develop their language skills and grow in confidence is one of the most rewarding aspects of my profession. My teaching style is supportive, engaging, and interactive, with a focus on building strong communication skills and fostering a positive learning environment. I believe in tailoring lessons to meet the needs of each student, ensuring they feel motivated and empowered to achieve their goals. ![Patrick Carver](/sites/default/files/images/Patrick.png) ### Patrick Carver #### CELTA Hi, I'm Patrick a CELTA-qualified teacher from Manchester in the UK. I've spent the last several years working around the world as an English teacher. I love my work as teaching is my passion & I am very happy to work for Maltalingua. It is a great environment for education. It is a friendly, lively, and exciting place to work. I especially enjoy meeting and learning about new people and cultures from around the world and experiencing student's unique perspectives and input in the classroom. My teaching style is energetic and friendly, which is primarily student-focused. I like my classes to be vibrant, talkative, and (above all else) fun. When I am not teaching, I am a big fan of travelling, football, chess, and creating music. Look forward to seeing you in class. Cheers! ![Carlos Febrero](/sites/default/files/2025-10/carlos.png) ### Carlos Febrero #### CELTA Passionate and highly organised English teacher with CELTA certification and experience working with diverse learners, including young learners, adults, and refugees. Inspired by a rewarding volunteer experience teaching English in an immigration detention centre, I developed a strong commitment to helping students achieve their goals. I use a student-centred approach, focusing on pronunciation, fluency, and communication through techniques such as phonemic transcription, chunks of language, and intonation practice. My aim is to create engaging, inclusive, and supportive classrooms where every learner feels encouraged and motivated. Photo Coming Soon ### Anna Ludwig #### M.Ed. Hi! I'm Anna, originally from Germany, and I've been living in Malta for the past 2.5 years. Back in 2019, during my bachelor's degree, I undertook an internship within the academic department at Maltalingua. Since then, I've completed my Master's in teaching English and educational science (M.Ed.). I've taught at various schools throughout my studies, and since 2022, I've also been providing face-to-face tutoring online. I discovered early on that I really enjoy explaining things and chose English because I believe it will become increasingly important in global communication. Educational science emphasises the process that takes place in an individual while growing up/learning/interacting. This knowledge lets me tailor my teaching methods and learning plans to each student. I've always enjoyed working with others and supporting their development. As I believe we all have something to teach each other, I'm passionate about sharing my knowledge and learning from others too. I generally believe that learning is something that can and should be fun, so let me help you remember how great it can be to understand things! ![Layla Sharkey](/sites/default/files/Laila.jpg) ### Layla Sharkey #### TEFL Hi, I'm Layla and I'm from Cork, Ireland. When I'm not working, I'm reading or swimming. I'm a big music enthusiast, so I usually spend my weekends at different music events around the island. One of the things I love most about being an English teacher at Maltalingua is the opportunity to meet students from all around the world. Every class is a new chance to connect with people from different cultures, and I find it so rewarding to see how language brings us all together. Learning a language can sometimes feel intimidating, so patience and encouragement are very important in my teaching. I want my classroom to be a place where mistakes are seen as part of the learning journey and where everyone feels supported. Watching students grow and express themselves in English is what makes this job so special. Photo Coming Soon ### Lauren Borg #### TEFL, TELT My name is Lauren, and I'm from Malta. I am 22 years old and currently in my final year of Medicine and Surgery at the University of Malta. Alongside my studies, I work part-time with Maltalingua as a teacher of English to foreign students, holding both TEFL and TELT certifications required for my ELT permit. Although my professional path is leading me into the world of medicine, my love for English has never faded. Teaching has given me the chance to help students gain confidence in expressing themselves, and I see language not just as words and grammar, but as a powerful tool for connection and opportunity. Outside the classroom, I enjoy dancing ballet and sports. These passions remind me that learning is a lifelong process, one that blends discipline with creativity, and structure with freedom. My goal as a teacher is always to create a safe and welcoming space where students can learn, make mistakes, and grow both in English and in self-confidence. Photo Coming Soon ### Emma Beddingfield #### TEFL Hi, my name is Emma and I'm from Malta. I am a qualified TEFL teacher, and I am also currently studying Law at the University of Malta. I have been teaching English for 5 years and during this time I have had the pleasure of meeting students from all over the world. I teach General English, and I always try to make my lessons as interactive and engaging as possible. Outside of teaching, I enjoy travelling to new countries, reading, and playing sports. I love exploring new cultures and learning from the people I meet along the way. ![Georgia Forsyth](/sites/default/files/Georgia.jpg) ### Georgia Forsyth #### TEFL Hi, I'm Georgia. I'm originally from Canada but have also lived and taught in Australia, England, and Portugal. I have a dual bachelor's degree in English and Drama studies, a TEFL certificate, and a postgraduate certificate in costume production. My background is in theatre, so I always strive to include engaging, interactive learning games into the classroom. My teaching ethos is that if you are having fun, it is easier to learn and retain knowledge. I use my ex-rugby captain skills on my students that fail their Cambridge or IELTS exams, so none of them ever have. ![Katie](/sites/default/files/Katie.jpg) ### Katie #### TESOL + BA in Irish and Linguistics Hi, my name is Katie and I'm from Ireland. I've been teaching English for the past two years and have worked with students of all ages and levels, from beginners to advanced. I love helping students build confidence and enjoy using English in real-life situations. One of my favourite things about teaching at Maltalingua is meeting people from all over the world and learning about different cultures. No two classes are ever the same. My classes are friendly, interactive, and full of speaking activities, so you can feel relaxed, have fun, and make real progress. Outside of teaching, I love going to the beach, painting, playing sports, and spending time with friends. Photo Coming Soon ### Emily #### TEFL Hello, I'm Emily, a TEFL qualified teacher from a small town in Ireland. I spent my first year of teaching in Limerick, and continued to teach in Austria and the UK, as well as carrying out private tutoring. Drawing from my knowledge of the English language from my Literature and Creative Writing degrees, I enjoy teaching students how to get their ideas and opinions on the page. I love words and therefore love teaching students new vocabulary. It's not all work all the time though. I like my classroom to be full of chat, lively debate, and laughter. Studying English can be tiring, so I try to include games in my lessons. This is how I get to know the students and learn about their lives and interests. I enjoy learning about different cultures and perspectives on life. I look forward to meeting you. ![Gerry](/sites/default/files/Gerry.jpg) ### Gerry #### TEFL Hello, my name is Gerry, with the /d?/ sound you hear at the beginning of the words Jazz and Jungle. I'm starting with this fun linguistic fact since learning each other's names will likely be the first thing we will do together in the classroom. I was born and raised in Ireland and I've lived in the UK, Canada, France, Quebec, Mexico, the Netherlands, and of course Malta which is now home. I speak English, French, Spanish, Dutch, and some bits and pieces of some other languages too. I love to read and watch films, handy for an English teacher. I also love to travel and learn about the heritage, culture, and traditions of other peoples. I look forward to getting to know you here at our beautiful school in sunny Malta. --- ## Location, Location Location! - **URL:** https://www.maltalingua.com/language-school/location/ - **Section:** The Language School Our Location in St Julian's Maltalingua English language school is located in St Julian's, one of the best locations in Malta.

A member of our team meets your child at the airport on arrival and accompanies them to their accommodation; a return transfer is provided on the day of departure. For unaccompanied minors, please ask about our supported flight options at the time of booking. How do I stay in touch with my child during the programme?Children are free to use their own mobile phones during their personal time. Our leader team is reachable 24/7 by parents in case of urgent contact, and we provide a parent contact line on arrival. What about meals and dietary requirements?All students staying at the residence receive full board: breakfast, lunch, and dinner every day. Vegetarian, halal, gluten-free, lactose-free, and other dietary requirements are accommodated on request - please tell us at the time of booking so we can prepare. What if my child gets sick or has a medical emergency?Travel and medical insurance is included for the full duration of the stay. Our leader team is first-aid trained and contacts local medical services if needed. We notify parents immediately if any medical attention is required. Who else attends the summer school?We typically host students from across Europe, Latin America, and Asia in the same programme - Italian, German, Spanish, French, Polish, Czech, Brazilian, Japanese, Turkish, Russian, and more. Mixed nationalities mean students naturally end up speaking English with one another, and our class allocation deliberately spreads nationalities across groups. What level of English does my child need?Any level - from absolute beginner to advanced. Every new student takes a placement test on arrival and is placed in a class matching their level. Classes have up to 20 students, so teachers can give every child individual attention. What dates does the summer programme run?Our 2026 junior summer programme runs from **23 May to 6 September**. We also run shorter junior programmes at **Easter (28 March-19 April)** and in **autumn (3-25 October)**. Stays can be from 1 to 15 weeks. Are mobile phones, screens, and curfews regulated?Yes - age-appropriate curfews and screen-time guidance apply. Younger children (8-12) have earlier curfews and supervised screen time; teens (13-17) have later curfews with one free afternoon, one free evening, and a free Sunday each week within the supervised programme. What should my child pack?A detailed packing list is sent with the booking confirmation. The essentials are: comfortable clothes for warm weather, swimwear and a beach towel, sun cream and a sun hat, sturdy shoes for walking tours, a light cardigan for air-conditioned classrooms, and any prescription medication clearly labelled. What makes Maltalingua different from other summer schools?We are an EAQUALS-accredited boutique school, not a mass-market summer camp. Class sizes are kept small (up to 20), all teachers are native English speakers using National Geographic Learning materials, supervision is genuinely 24/7 by our multilingual team, and our packages are truly all-inclusive with no hidden fees. Many of our junior leaders return year after year - your child will often be looked after by the same familiar faces other parents have already trusted.

Despite its modest size, Malta offers thousands of years of human history, breathtaking landscapes and a distinctive blend of European and North African influences. The country is a full member of the European Union, uses the euro as its currency and is known for its hospitality, safety and year-round sunshine. Malta is therefore a vibrant destination throughout the entire year. For over 7,000 years, these islands have served as a home, fortress, trading post and place of refuge. Neolithic temple builders, Phoenician traders, Carthaginians, Romans, Arabs, Normans, the Order of St John (Knights of Malta), Napoleon's troops and the British Empire have all left their mark here. Malta also plays a role in Christian tradition. According to the Apostle Paul, he was shipwrecked on the islands in AD 60 and brought Christianity to Malta. This unique blend of peoples and cultures continues to shape the Maltese language, architecture, cuisine and traditions today. ### World Heritage and unforgettable sights Malta is home to three UNESCO World Heritage Sites: **The prehistoric temples of Malta** - older than Stonehenge and the pyramids. **The Hal Saflieni Hypogeum** - an underground Neolithic burial complex. **The city of Valletta** - founded in 1566 by the Knights of St John, featuring St John's Co-Cathedral, the Grand Master's Palace and the panoramic Upper Barrakka Gardens.

This curriculum helps students not just learn language, but develop their own "voice" in English - fostering curiosity, cultural awareness and communication confidence. With Voices, every reading text is supported by audio, helping students improve listening skills, pronunciation and fluency. The series is designed to be flexible and accessible, giving teachers tools to adapt lessons to every learner's needs. The books place a strong emphasis on authenticity, with real texts, striking National Geographic photography, and culturally relevant topics. Lessons are carefully scaffolded so students can succeed step by step, while always being challenged to express their own ideas. Teachers and learners alike value the visual appeal and variety of activities - from infographics and discussion prompts to writing tasks and project work - all designed to help students connect English to the real world. #### Elementary A1-A2 #### Pre-Intermediate A2-B1 #### Intermediate Plus B1+ #### Upper-Intermediate B2 #### Advanced C1 The Voices series is part of a modern, seven-level curriculum that builds the skills students need for effective global communication. By combining inspiring content with practical language practice, it keeps learners motivated and engaged throughout their journey. Each unit blends reading, listening, speaking and writing tasks, supported by critical thinking activities and visual resources. Students are encouraged to share opinions, reflect on diverse perspectives, and connect what they learn in class to the world around them. Digital resources complement the printed books with interactive activities, auto-graded exercises and teacher feedback tools. This creates a seamless experience inside and outside the classroom, helping students track their progress and continue learning at home. ### Self-Study Platform - Continue Learning at Home The Voices series includes online resources such as videos, interactive activities and exercises. Teachers can set assignments, provide feedback and communicate directly with students on the platform, encouraging independent learning. ### Task-Based Learning Lessons Maltalingua complements the Voices syllabus with tailor-made sessions focusing on systems, skills and task-based projects. Learners are encouraged to connect lesson content with their surroundings, making the experience more immersive and practical. ### Assessment & Progress Students are placed according to an online Placement Test and a speaking assessment on their first day. Weekly targets and progress tests help track development, with regular feedback and individual study plans ensuring every student achieves their goals.

Adequate travel insurance is an essential part of planning your trip to Malta. **All students travelling to Maltalingua are required to have suitable travel insurance in place before departure.** It not only safeguards you against unexpected costs but also allows you to focus fully on your studies and experiences while abroad. With the right policy in place, you can feel confident knowing you are covered in case of medical emergencies, travel delays, cancellations, or loss of belongings. **Important:** Before travelling to Malta, all students must have suitable travel insurance in place. This should cover medical expenses, trip cancellation, travel disruption, and flight delays or cancellations. Please note that Maltalingua cannot accept responsibility for airline disruption, cancelled or delayed flights, missed connections, or other travel issues outside the school's control. For this reason, students and families must ensure they have adequate insurance cover before departure. If travel disruption happens, our team will always try to help with practical next steps where possible, but any insurance claim, airline claim, or travel-related loss remains the responsibility of the student and their insurer or travel provider. ### Why Travel Insurance Matters Students are required to obtain travel insurance when coming to Malta. This ensures protection against cancellation fees, medical emergencies, lost baggage, or other unexpected situations. With a suitable policy, you can quickly recover costs and avoid unnecessary stress during your stay. **Tip:** Carry both paper and digital copies of your insurance documents and emergency contacts. ### Recommended Coverage Types - Health insurance valid across the EU or Malta-specific cover - Trip cancellation and interruption - Accident insurance - Cover for lost or stolen valuables - Travel disruption, including flight delay, flight cancellation, and missed connections Students from EU countries should carry an EHIC or GHIC card. Non-EU students should ensure their insurance specifically covers Malta. ### Choosing and Using Insurance Compare policies carefully and look for providers offering 24/7 multilingual support, straightforward claims procedures, and clear coverage limits. If you need to make a claim, notify your insurer immediately, keep receipts, and follow instructions. Store digital copies on your phone for easy access. **Tip:** Some credit cards include travel insurance - check before purchasing extra cover. ### Get a Quote Check with your existing provider first to see if they can extend cover to Malta.

I am looking forward to meeting you here at Maltalingua! ![Keenan Kleinsmith](/sites/default/files/2025-10/keenan.png) ### Keenan Kleinsmith #### Assistant Director of Studies - CELTA Hi, I'm Keenan from Cape Town, South Africa. I'm a qualified CELTA teacher with a real passion for helping students develop and grow, both in the classroom and beyond. Teaching English isn't just my job it's a journey I get to share with learners from all walks of life, and I love making every lesson engaging and practical. Sports are a big part of my life. I enjoy watching rugby, football, and Formula 1, and I often weave sports topics into lessons to connect with my students and make learning fun. Cooking is another creative outlet for me, and sharing meals with family and friends is where I feel most at home. I'm curious about cultures and love to travel, meet new people, and discover fresh perspectives on life. I believe learning should feel meaningful and motivating, whether we're tackling a tricky grammar point or sharing stories about our lives. My approach focuses on building confidence and inspiring curiosity in each student I work with. My favourite quote sums up my outlook: "A day without learning is a day wasted." That's a motto I live by, and I hope to inspire others to do the same. ![Maria Privitera](/sites/default/files/2025-10/maria.png) ### Maria Privitera #### Academic Supervisor - CELTA Hi there! My name is Maria and am Maltese. I started teaching in the year 2021 and I am CELTA-qualified. This venture has been a long time coming as I've always had a love for the English language and have come across many people from many different countries who have wanted to learn English, so I've spent most of my life interacting with students. Teaching English fascinates me and I love seeing students progress and be ambitious in wanting to improve their communication skills. Working at Maltalingua has allowed me to pursue my passion and has enabled me to meet new people from all over the world. The staff I work with are wonderful! We have a big family atmosphere in which everyone is extremely helpful and kind. Every teacher has different skills with one goal and philosophy in mind - and that is, to help students become better at communicating with other people. ![Julian Micallef](/sites/maltalingua.com/files/images/julian-micallef-student-welfare-officer-min.jpg) ### Julian Micallef #### Operations Manager Hi, my name is Julian Micallef and I am the Operations Manager at Maltalingua Language School. My main role at the school is the well-being of our students, which means my job is to be there to answer and assist you as best I can. My responsibilities include running the leisure program for our adult students and managing our student apartments. I am Maltese and love this little island. Being Maltese gives me the advantage of knowing what to offer our students, whether it is historical sites, day trips to Gozo, or the best parties on the island! I graduated in Hospitality and Tourism Management and over the past seven years, I have gained invaluable experience working in tourism and various other language schools. I'm a very active person and am always on the go, which also helps me in my line of work. I love sports and keeping fit.

We are deliberately small: one campus, one close-knit community, and a team that knows every student by name. Since 2012 we have helped students from around the world **learn English in Malta**, combining serious teaching with the warmth of a genuine boutique school. 2012 Established & British-owned Max 12 Students per adult class 4.6? Average student rating EAQUALS Accredited & ELT Council licensed ## Our story Founded in 2012 and British-owned ever since, Maltalingua was built on a simple idea: students learn English faster, and enjoy it more, in a small and personal setting. While the large chains grew through volume, we chose to stay boutique - protecting our class sizes, teaching quality and the friendly atmosphere our students and partners know us for. ## What makes us different - **A true boutique school** - independent and British-owned since 2012, with every decision made on-site for our students. - **A strict maximum of 12 adults per class** - so everyone speaks every day and gets real, personal feedback. - **Book direct, pay no booking fees** - no agency fees and no hidden costs. - **A historic seaside campus** in St Julian's, with sea views from several classrooms, a rooftop pool and an on-site student cafe. ## Life at Maltalingua - beyond the classroom Learning English doesn't stop when the lesson ends. Our social team runs a full programme every week - boat trips to the Blue Lagoon and Comino, beach afternoons, historic visits to Valletta and Mdina, food nights, parties on our rooftop terrace and weekend excursions across the islands. It is the fastest, most enjoyable way to put your English into practice and make friends from all over the world. ## A typical week - **Mornings** - focused English lessons in classes of no more than 12. - **Afternoons** - optional activities, study time, the rooftop pool or exploring St Julian's. - **Evenings & weekends** - a lively social programme of dinners, parties and island excursions. ## Courses for every age, all year round We teach **English language courses in Malta** for every level and goal: General and Intensive English, Business English, exam preparation (IELTS and Cambridge) and one-to-one lessons for adults all year round, plus junior, teen and family programmes in summer, Easter and autumn. [Explore our adult courses](/english-courses/) or [discover our junior programmes](/junior/). ## Where you'll stay We arrange comfortable, well-located accommodation to suit every budget - modern student residences and apartments within easy reach of the school, or a welcoming local host family for a more immersive experience. [See our accommodation options](/accommodation/). ## Awards & accreditations Maltalingua is **EAQUALS-accredited** and licensed by the Malta ELT Council. We are the only school in Malta ever shortlisted for the StudyTravel "English Language School Europe" award, a repeat nominee for our junior programme, and a multiple winner of the LanguageCourses.net Excellence Award - most recently a finalist at the 2026 GoAbroad Innovation Awards. ## Student support & welfare Because we are small, support is personal. From your first enquiry to your last day in Malta, a friendly, multilingual team is on hand to help with anything you need - course advice, accommodation, airport transfers, visa letters and day-to-day questions. It is the kind of genuine, individual care that a large, seasonal operation simply cannot offer. ## Our campus & location Our adult school sits in the heart of St Julian's, one of Malta's most vibrant seaside towns, close to beaches, restaurants and the seafront. Our junior summer campus is based in the safe, family-friendly setting of St Paul's Bay. ## Meet the team Every teacher is a qualified, native English speaker.

The differences that decide how much English you actually learn are easy to miss. Use the six criteria below. Ask every school the same questions, and the right choice becomes obvious. The 6-point checklist ### 1. Class size The single biggest predictor of progress. Ask for the guaranteed *maximum* class size, not the average. We cap adult classes at 12 (juniors at 20) - so you speak every lesson. ### 2. Accreditation Look for EAQUALS, the European quality benchmark held by only a handful of Malta schools. We're one. It means teaching and welfare are externally inspected on a fixed cycle. ### 3. Facilities A single campus where lessons, social life and downtime happen together builds immersion. Ours is a purpose-built campus in St Julian's with a rooftop pool. ### 4. Location St Julian's puts cafes, the seafront and student life on your doorstep - so you practise English the moment class ends, where real fluency is won. ### 5. Teacher quality Ask about qualifications, not charisma. Our teachers are Cambridge-certified and teach to EAQUALS standards - consistent methodology in every classroom. ### 6. Price transparency A good school shows the full cost - tuition, accommodation, transfers, activities - before you book. We publish our fees openly; read our [pricing guide](/english-course-prices-malta/). A strong school scores well on all six, not just the sunny photos.

[Get a free quote](/quotation/) ## Frequently asked questions What's the most important factor when choosing an English school in Malta?Class size. It directly controls how much you speak and how fast you progress. Always ask for the guaranteed *maximum* class size in peak season - Maltalingua caps adult classes at 12 and markets junior classes at a maximum of 20. How do I know if a Malta English school is properly accredited?Look for EAQUALS membership plus national ELT licensing. EAQUALS is held by only a few schools in Malta and means an external body inspects teaching and welfare on a fixed cycle. Maltalingua is EAQUALS-accredited. Does the school's location in Malta really matter?Yes. A school in a central, English-speaking area like St Julian's means you practise English everywhere outside class - cafes, the seafront, daily life - which is where fluency is built. Should I choose a Standard or Intensive course?Standard General English is 20 lessons per week and suits steady progress with plenty of free time. Intensive is 30 lessons per week for faster results. Both are available for adults; junior programmes run as Standard General English. Why can't I see full prices on some school websites?Some schools publish only a tuition headline. A transparent school shows the full cost - tuition, accommodation, transfers and activities - before you book. Maltalingua publishes fees on its prices page and itemises what's included. --- ## Scholarship Terms and Conditions - **URL:** https://www.maltalingua.com/scholarship/terms/ - **Section:** Other Pages By applying for the scholarship one agrees to the following terms and conditions: - The scholarship Is being run by Maltalingua Ltd. 2, Boxer House, B'kara Hill, St. Julians, Malta. - The scholarship includes four weeks Standard English course + IELTS preparation courses, four weeks accommodation in a school apartment's shared twin room, and airport transfer. - In order to take part in the scholarship, the applicant must be 18 years old or over at the time of application. - The scholarship is not open to employees (or members of their immediate family) of Maltalingua Ltd. - In order to apply for the scholarship, one must fill the form on the website and leave their full name and e-mail address. - Maltalingua accepts only one entry per person. - The participants will be chosen by the members of Maltalingua Ltd. marketing team on an arbitrary basis and their decision is final. - Entries for the scholarship are open all year round.

Increase retention. Develop skills. Offer progression.** In today's global society, English is increasingly being used as the international language of communication for business. The benefits of English in the workplace include: - Creating a common language for employees within the workplace; - Building trust and improving relationships with clients and colleagues; - Initiating and maintaining international relationships; - Enhancing your professional skill-set; - Facilitation of career progression; - Exploring relationships through cultural understanding; - Improve the quality of life when residing in English speaking countries. The ability to converse in English is a major advantage for some organisations and companies including staff members who do not speak English as a first or second language. Companies who direct business globally are going to engage with individuals who communicate in English as a first or second language consistently making the ability to utilise English within the work environment a truly valuable skill. It is estimated that over half of the pages on the internet are written in English which implies that more content is accessible to individuals who can understand English. Access to this kind of information can have a profound effect on your professional life, regardless of whether you work with partners or customers who communicate in English or not. If you can communicate in English with certainty there is a high possibility that you have either studied or experienced English culture. This social understanding can be important for managers who need to work with or offer services to English speaking countries. Business English courses in the workplace are a superb choice for motivated and busy executives and business students. We know that your time is valuable; this is why Maltalingua aims to develop the English language skills that all participants need for their professional life as quickly and efficiently as possible. The course is designed to help all participants communicate in an English-speaking business environment. Instruction is held in small groups, ideally, no more than 10 students per group, and covers a number of topics, including: - Taking part in business meetings and speeches; - Corresponding by email and by telephone; - Recruitment and interview techniques; - Giving presentations; - Small talk for conversations outside of meetings. The course is designed to be more flexible than General English classes, the lessons can also be adjusted to your topics of interest. Maltalingua will provide as many teachers as needed to keep group sizes small and effective and provides qualified, engaging, creative, and experienced teachers who are native speakers.

Many schools advertise a low tuition figure, then add accommodation, transfers and activities once you enquire. Here's exactly what you should be paying for. We publish our fees openly - see live figures on our [prices page](/prices/). The breakdown below explains what each part covers. Cost component What it covers At Maltalingua **Tuition** Your lessons per week From EUR234/wk (Standard, 20 lessons); EUR343/wk (Intensive, 30) **Accommodation** Residence, shared apartment or host family From EUR196/wk (twin shared) - see [all options](/prices/) **Airport transfers** Arrival / departure transfer Itemised on our [prices page](/prices/) **Registration** One-off enrolment & materials Itemised on our [prices page](/prices/) **Activities** Organised excursions & evening programme Optional - itemised up front What good value really means ### Lessons x attention x outcome The cheapest weekly tuition is rarely the best value. A small class delivers far more speaking time per euro than a large one. ### Why our classes do more Adult classes are capped at 12 (juniors 15), so each hour of tuition works harder - a shorter course here can match a longer one elsewhere. ### No hidden extras We give you the all-in figure in writing - tuition, accommodation, transfers and activities - so you compare like for like. ### No money-off games We don't discount tuition. We add value through free upgrades and length-of-stay benefits such as 3-for-2 weeks. Tell us your dates, course type and accommodation preference, and we'll send a written all-in quote with nothing hidden. [Get a free quote](/quotation/) ## Frequently asked questions How much does an English course in Malta cost?It depends on course intensity, length and accommodation. Tuition starts from Itemised on our [prices page](/prices/) per week for Standard General English. The honest answer is to look at the all-in total - tuition plus accommodation, transfers and activities - which we publish and itemise on our prices page. What's included in the course price?A complete price covers tuition, accommodation, airport transfers, registration/materials and social activities. Some schools quote tuition only, so always ask for the all-in figure. Maltalingua provides every line in writing. Is Intensive English worth the extra cost?Intensive (30 lessons/week) costs more than Standard (20 lessons/week) but delivers faster progress, which suits shorter stays or exam preparation. For a relaxed pace with more free time, Standard is better value. Do you offer discounts on English courses?We don't cut the tuition rate. Instead we add value through free upgrades and length-of-stay benefits such as 3-for-2 week deals. Ask our team what's currently available for your dates. Why do some Malta schools hide their prices?Publishing only a tuition headline makes a course look cheaper than its true cost. We take the opposite approach - open fees and a full written breakdown - so you can compare like for like. How do I get an exact price for my dates?Fill out our short quotation form with your dates, course type and accommodation choice, and our team will check availability and send a complete written quote. --- ## English School Reviews in Malta: What Students Say About Maltalingua - **URL:** https://www.maltalingua.com/english-school-malta-reviews/ - **Section:** Other Pages What students say about Maltalingua - Google, Trustpilot & ST STAR Awards Reviews are one of the best ways to judge an English school before you arrive - but only if you read them well.

Most are memberships you can pay to display. **EAQUALS is different** - it's an inspected accreditation, and one of the clearest quality signals you can use. EAQUALS (Evaluation and Accreditation of Quality in Language Services) inspects a school against detailed standards, then re-inspects on a fixed cycle. It's a verified quality promise, not a self-awarded logo. What an EAQUALS inspection checks ### Teaching & learning Methodology, lesson quality and measurable student progress. ### Teacher qualifications That staff are properly trained - e.g. Cambridge-certified CELTA/DELTA routes. ### Course design Clear levels aligned to the CEFR (A1-C2) and honest level placement. ### Student welfare Pastoral care, safety and the accuracy of the information schools give you. ### Management & ethics Fair terms, transparent information and sound administration. ### Continuous standards Because inspection is periodic and external, schools must *maintain* quality, not pass once and relax. Malta has many English schools but only a small number hold EAQUALS accreditation. **Maltalingua is one of them** - read more on our [accreditation page](/accreditation/).

It's a verified quality mark, not a self-awarded badge. Are there EAQUALS-accredited English schools in Malta?Yes, but only a small number. Maltalingua is one of the EAQUALS-accredited English schools in Malta, alongside holding Malta's national ELT licensing. Is EAQUALS better than other accreditations?EAQUALS is among the most rigorous because it's inspected and periodically renewed, covering teaching quality, CEFR-aligned course design and welfare. Many other badges are memberships rather than inspections. Why should accreditation affect which school I choose?Accreditation verifies that teaching, level placement and welfare meet an external standard - so you progress faster, get placed in the right class, and can trust the information you're given. Does Maltalingua have other quality credentials besides EAQUALS?Yes.
