Christmas Feast at AClass Academy of English

It’s the last week before the school closes for the holidays and what better way to

 draw a successful year to a close than by having a Christmas party full of good food

and Yule-time cheer.

All the remaining students thought this was a grand idea with many of them bringing something

home- baked with them. We had mulled wine and mince pies from   the UK, oranges and

panettone from Italy,  gingerbread cookies from Hungary, a sponge cake from Iran,  mini Salami’s

from Spain and of course, pastizzi from Malta.

After having our fill we sat down in the schools Internet Café and played a number of word games

which brought out the competitive streak in many of us.

Well -done to everyone for making the party a total success.

See you in 2013.

Christmas is around the corner

I can't believe how quickly December and  Christmas has come round again. I feel like it was only a few weeks ago that AClass Academy of English welcomed  groups of Teens and Juniors to learn  English with us in summer. I remember thinking summer was going to last forever.

It is only this week that Malta has seen any kind of wintry weather though we have had our fair share of wet days, the mercury has only just fallen to below 20!


The school is still quite busy for this time of year and we have such lovely students coming through our doors. I feel I have made friends for life. Classes are so small and personal that students who come in winter  time often come back time and time again as it really is the ideal time to focus on learning English.
 

We have several families here to improve their language skills together, a few Medical English students  and a number of students preparing for the IELTS exam next January.  There are also plenty  of  young and not so young adults taking General or Business English courses to brush up on their English and  improve their job prospects.

The tinsel is up but we have yet to decorate our AClass tree. Hopefully that will happen next week before our Christmas party on the 18th.

Christmas is a great time to be in Malta as the streets are full of lights and carols and although there is no snow the island somehow feels full of Yule time cheer.

AClass wishes you all a very Merry Christmas and we hope you book an English language course with us in 2013.

It has been a fantastic summer here at AClass Academy of English. We have welcomed people from all over the world through our doors to learn English and made many new friends.

We have had students taking Cambridge First Certificate exams as well as others taking their IELTS exams as well as the City and Guilds IESOL exam. 

Some students have come here to combine a holiday with a language course. Others have had clear goals and were extremely driven. I am please to say we managed to satisfy all or at least nearly all their expectations. This is why after 4 years I can honestly say I love what I do!

The months are whizzing by and Malta is seeing more and more blue-bird skies as the mercury is rising. This spring, AClass Academy of English in Malta has been rather busy preparing for the summer period ahead.

Director of Studies at AClass, Liz Camilleri, says:

“After a very successful 2011, we have taken on board many of the suggestions and recommendations we received from our students and partner agents.

Consequently, AClass have  introduced a Business English course in the mornings in light of requests as  previously these lessons we only available in the afternoons.

Just before summer, we will be running an in-service refresher course for all the teachers to promote and exchange ideas. On-going monitoring and training are crucial to ensure teachers continue to progress and keep up to date with the latest developments. 

 We have invested heavily in our staff as we believe a school is only as good as the teachers it employs. No amount of technology can make up for a  teacher who is stagnant .”

All the teachers are  highly- qualified and besides holding the necessary qualifications to teach English they bring their life-experiences to the classroom. They come from a range of diverse working backgrounds with some having worked in mainstream schools while others are retired professionals.  There is also a journalist, a semi-qualified dentist and even a Reiki instructor in our team.  

“Our Business English teacher, besides holding a CELTA qualification, for example, is also an accountant with numerous years of banking experience under her belt.”

While the academic side of things are being taken care of, the Accommodation officers have also been busy interviewing new host families and securing accommodation close to the school. Demand for self-catering apartments with Wi-Fi from English language students is on the increase so this has been a priority this year. New hostels suitable for adults have also been added to the ever expending accommodation portfolio to offer as much choice as possible to prospective students.

Accommmodation Officer at AClass, Nicole Pullicino explains:

“Sourcing quality accommodation close to the school is an on-going project. We monitor all our families, especially during busy periods to ensure standards are kept high. I know we are on the right track when  our students come back the following year and  ask for the same families or apartment again.”

AClass Academy of English has seen steady and continual growth since it opened its doors to English language students in 2009. It offers General English classes as well as Business, Medical and Aviation English. Courses start from €115 euro per week. Visit http://www.aclassenglish.com
