Standard course in Malta

The Standard English course in Malta is the most popular and most frequently booked course. It offers students the perfect balance between language training and leisure time. Normally students spend 3 hours a day studying and have the rest of the day to enjoy themselves. An integrated skills approach helps students to develop fluency in speaking, listening, reading and writing and the teachers ensure that the grammar, vocabulary and pronunciation components are applied to actual language use.

We use the most up-to-date and interactive teaching techniques and material that help students quickly improve their English. Although our Standard English courses follow a set curriculum, our teachers identify their students' learning needs and objectives on the first day of the course and throughout their stay, and adapt the lessons accordingly. In this way, our students are motivated to keep improving, while also having a good time.

Standard course Goals
  • Develop speaking, listening, reading and writing competencies
  • Improving English grammar and vocabulary
  • Applying theoritical knowledge in practice
  • Course designed so students have rest of the day for leisure.

Timetable

The standard course timetable focuses on academic time during the mornings so our students have the rest of the day at their leisure to plan their personal excursions at the destination. We offer 3 lessons per day with 3 hours (180mins) duration each day which results in 20 lessons per week (15 hours)

Course material for the standard course

Our main course book, English File Third Edition, allows students to learn the language using real-life contexts with lively, interesting reading and listening texts, challenging activities and periodic evaluations so they can see and measure their progress. Each level is designed to take 16 weeks to complete as during that time a student can cover the entire syllabus of the level and should then automatically advance to the following level provided their attendance is 80% or above.

Students must purchase a course book upon their arrival. Students staying less than 4 weeks can return their book and get a refund accordingly.

Our Certificate

Every participant receives a certificate at the end of the language course. You can use this to prove your newly-acquired English language skills.
