I would like to express my deepest discontent about this establishment. My son flew from Ukraine via Germany to Malta. During this journey everything was fine however, upon arrival a nightmare began. First of all, despite the promises, my son was located in the same room with Russian-speaking boys. English lessons – only 3 hours per day. Is this enough? When we bought this package, package included English lessons and 3 different types of leisure: SCUBA diving, tennis and equestrian sport. We choose tennis. My son was taken to the tennis court only once in 3 weeks, but he was sitting on the bench alone because instructor was absent. My son was forced to go to disco at night and when we called accompanying personnel and asked to return our son back to ESE, ESE personnel were drunk and refused to do so. By the end, my son was interrogated by ESE personnel, and his mobile phone was taken away. We called Ukrainian Embassy in Malta but it was around 0300 AM and obviously no one was there. My son came back home as skinny as f…k because ESE loves only pasta and tuna… Never ever again.

This school is excellent. When I was in high school, my curriculum was focused on business and a minimum of three languages. Every year, the school would organize trips around Europe to practice the languages we were studying and they sent us to Malta for a while. The teacher was great. What I liked the most was the fact that it was forbidden to speak our language between classmates which helped a lot. Here I also had the opportunity to get to know many people from around the world who were also sent by their schools. The cafe inside the school is quite expensive, so I would suggest to bring your lunch from home.

Great school, but sadly on the beginning there was not no social meeting or something like that. I was on Malta alone looking for a new experience and friends. Main problem was that there were already groups of people (by country) talking with their native language together. So for me as solo it was quite impossible and frustrating to meet new friends. Maybe, but that´s subjective, for me the program morning and in the evening was boring. The only thing that they did was throw us somewhere and than - do what you want. As I sad, I liked learning here english, but you should totaly make your own program and friends. P.S. Don´t come here in summer, it´s really hot here :P
