School

Our partner school is a small and friendly English school with an emphasis on quality teaching. Situated in Gozo, twin sister of the island of Malta, the school has an ideal location in the countryside, 5 minutes' walking distance away from Kercem and 20 minutes' walking distance away from Victoria, the island’s main city. The language school is air-conditioned and contains 8 classrooms. English lessons take place in small groups (maximum 12, 8 on average) allowing teachers to give maximum attention to each student. In the common room, the school provides a small area for individual study and some computers for students' use. An outdoor swimming pool, a garden and a sun terrace will allow you to relax during breaks or after classes.
