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.

Jingle Bells - Christmas Spirit

I can't believe it is that time of year once again. Nicole, Juanita and I decorated the school with lots of Christmas decorations and are feeling decidedly Christmassy now that we have our Christmas carols playing in the background and lights twinkling on the tree.

For some of our English students, this is their first experience of what Christmas is all about as they do not normally celebrate it. For those who do celebrate Christmas, this may be their first year away from home so it really is a special time of year.

Luckily, we have more than enough excitement to go around and the last day before we break up will focus on Christmas games, traditions and customs with a few traditional goodies such as mince pies and mulled wine thrown in for good measure.

2011 is expected to be even busier than 2010. Not only are English students coming to Malta to study and learn English with AClass expected to increase steadily but we have lots of exciting new plans in the pipeline as well. These include Online English lessons where you can learn English at home without leaving your house. These will be offered early next year.
