Perhaps the largest if not the best English language school on the island is the EC Group which is also hugely well established in several countries abroad.

The group is headquartered in St Julian’s and has by far the largest number of foreign students who attend its classes regularly. EC has a number of good teachers and has an excellent reputation especially with regards to its courses which constantly deliver a high rate of success.

Another excellent English language school is Inlingua which is headquartered in Sliema. This large school has been established afor a number of years and brings a pristine reputation to the market. They have attracted thousands of students to Malta over the years and this means that they have grown exponentially with a market close to over 20,000 students a year. Inlingua are also an international franchise with strong ties in the European market and their classes are also extremely popular in this respect.

The third large international English language school franchise is EF who are headquartered in Paceville and who cater chiefly for the younger student cohort. EF have been very successful in the extra curricular activity area were students who take their classes can be guaranteed an excellent time out in this respect. Teacher standards and course work may perhaps be slightly less of a high standard than that offered by the other two schools mentioned above.

English language teaching is a fine art which requires concentration and appropriately prepared lesson plans which certainly have to be up to scratch to succeed. The schools mentioned above have consistently striven to achieve the best quality for their students and have taught tens of thousands of individuals in this regard. There are other smaller schools such as Bells Language school and NSTS which offer similar services but it would be safe to say that EC, Inlingua and EF are the schools that one should look out for when surveying the English language school market in Malta.

Malta has an astonishing number of schools for its size so anyone seeking to choose an English school in Malta is really spoilt for choice. At the same time it can be difficult knowing which school is ideal for you so I will be giving you some tips in this article.

Your first choice will be location in Malta. This is not so difficult as most English schools are located either in St. Julians or its neighbouring city Malta. These cities are Malta’s main entertainment locations and favourite spots among tourists. If you prefer somewhere quieter away from all the hustle and bustle a good choice for you to learn English in Malta would be a school on the island of Gozo instead.

Next thing to look at is the schools certification. The Federation of English Language Teaching Organisations Malta (FELTOM) is a well-established leading organisation, which assures that high standards in the EFL industry are kept. FELTOM represents Malta’s top schools.
