About the school
The English Language Academy (ELA) was established in 1988 and is especially popular with younger students (18-25 years old). It is one of the oldest and most popular language schools in Malta, above all among those wanting to attend intensive English courses abroad.Â
The ELA school is located in Gzira, next to the National Sports Center. Most importantly, it is currently the only accredited TOEFL iBT examination center in the Maltese Islands. First of all, it specializes in exam preparation and intensive courses, also long-term ones.
The maximum number of students during group courses in the ELA is 10 people. Individual (1:1) English courses are also offered – see details below.Â
Courses availability
The English courses (intensive group courses, individual lessons, Cambridge & TOEFL exam preparation) at ELA are available throughout the year. They can be started on any day of the week, from Monday to Friday.
ATTENTION: At the time of booking, please note that classes do not take place on Maltese public holidays. There is no refund for lessons that have not taken place on those days. The language school’s internal policy decides about the possibility of making up for them on other days. Ready4Malta is not responsible for this.
