"I recommend"

Robert Gilewski, student from Poland

The group size is appropriate to maintain comfort and the company of co-learners. Teachers are professionals focused on the individual needs of students. They are happy to answer students' questions. They do not cause dissonance, they are more like learning partners.

"It was worth the wait to be in Malta for the first time."

Piotr Boszkowicz, student from Poland

I came to Malta with my family. They rested, and I went to school for English lessons. My group was very small so the teacher could focus on each of us. I met two teachers who were very understanding and kind to us. I cordially greet them. I really liked the structure of the classes; first grammar, then practical exercises: pronunciation, reading, listening exercises. It is also worth mentioning the nice service of the school headed by Mrs. manager.

"A good school and a good teacher who was very patient"

Bjarni Guðmundsson, student from Iceland

The school was very fine in San Gwann. I liked the teacher Dave very much and he was patient. I think my English skills are now better after this one to one learning in two days.

Maybe the school should have a water bottles included in the school cost because the shops around the school did only take cash but not my card and I was thirsty.

"Was not bad, but, could be better."

Rogerio Silva, student from Portugal

When I arrived in Malta I was well received. The accommodation was very comfortable. In relation to the school, I think I should have more classes to better level the students. In addition, I paid for 30 hours of course, but I only had 22 hours of class during the week.
But wasn't a bad experiencie.

Please note that one lesson duration is 45 minutes as advertised. If you felt that you did not receive all the lessons you should have reported it to front office. As far as we know we give you all the lessons you paid for. Thank you.

"It was a very good experience"

Hafsa, student from France

I booked three weeks course in San Gwann and it was a very good experience for me. I was able to improved on my English level, thanks to my excellent teacher, Victor!
The apartment is just a 10 minute walk from the school. You need sneakers in San Gwann because there are a lot of steep streets.
There is a very good public transport network in Malta so it's easy to move around the island.

"An amazing learning experience"

Anne-Cécile LAW-LIN

I had a great experience at EEC-ITIS Malta. The courses really helped me to improve my English, and teachers were very patient. I had so much fun with the school's team, which was very nice.

We went to some places in Malta and they made me discover this beautiful island with Valetta's fortification, temples, and bays, such as the Golden bay.

It was really easy to go to school because there was a bus station near EEC-ITIS Malta.

Anyway, it was a real pleasure to learn English every day at EEC-ITIS Malta and I would like to thank them for that.

"Perfect days!"

Ed Dublin

I studied general English for 2 weeks at EEC-ITIS Malta. It was a really wonderful experience. My teacher was really helpful to each student. I didn't feel lost.

The classes were modern, especially with the tactile boards.

I was with a host family during my 2 weeks. The house was near the school, and you could get there by walking.

The Institute advised me to attend some excursions and to make visits in Malta (Gozo, Valetta, etc). I enjoyed a lot! The Institute was easy to reach by walking from the host family's, as I said, and other students who were with me came easily by bus.

Nothing bad to say - it was a great experience!
