"Not suitable for Kids/Teens"

Xavier Braendle, student from Switzerland

There was a single 'Junior Class', so language skill test were overlooked. The age range was huge.
I did not learning really something. That was not really a school experience.
Most kids were on their mobile phones checking social media or gaming.The instructor did not care at all.

Thank you for your feedback. We apologize for not meeting your expectations. Typically, we organize students into different group levels. However, due to staff illness, we had to merge the junior class during that particular week, which is an unusual occurrence. Please contact us at [email protected] so we can discuss the compensation we would like to offer.

"Intensive English all the days."

Ivo Urban

Classes and teachers were very friendly and professional. The cafeteria in the school is perfect to meet the schoolmates and teachers. The staying in school's apartments was perfect - English speaking from early morning to late night. Also location of the school and apartments was totally excellent. I really enjoyed whole the time in Maltaligua school.

"Incredibly great atmosphere & therefore also optimal study conditions."

Ana Lena Ludwick

I have generally only had good experiences with this school. My accommodation was great, very varied weekly changing activities and the courses were also very well adapted to the students. I felt that I was assigned to the right level (B2) and was therefore optimally supported in my progress. The cafe and the pool on the roof top provide a very relaxed atmosphere, I felt really welcome instantly. I would recommend this school to everyone.

"Lovely and pleasant atmosphere"

Kateryna Kipish

First of all the location of school is very comfortable. It’s close to main streets and sea . There’s a lot of restaurants close to it, but I never used them because kitchen in the school is homemade and really tasty. I also liked the building of school it seems like an old style house with some nice details. For example like doors or windows. There is on the rooftop a swimming pool but unfortunately I didn’t have chance to use it because it’s already was cold weather. One of my favorite place was terrace. On the break everyone was chilling together there and speaking English at least trying

"I had a good experience. I improved my English."

Jose Luis Tau, student from Argentina

I had a good experience in Maltalingua School. The classes were with a good number of students (no more than 10). It was a very good atmosphere. It was an advantage, I think, because the teachers were young people.

For the improvement of the school, I think it is important to have some teachers with more experience.

The location of the school was ideal. There were a lot of activities outside the time of school. My house was optimal – had no problems and had very very good food. The last three weeks were better because I was alone in the room.
