LOCATION

MSD International School is based in Saint Paul’s Bay, a tourist resort.  The school’s premises are attractive and standards kept high. Our spacious classrooms overlook the picturesque bay of Saint Paul, enjoying a brilliant view and direct sunlight. One can also enjoy the beautiful view of Saint Paul's Islands.

Just outside the School's premises lies a historical watch-tower built in the seventeenth century by the Knights of the Sovereign Military Order of Saint John.

COURSES

Our school’s trademark is its standard of excellence. In fact, we strive to achieve high standards by creating tailor-made classes to suit the particular needs of each individual student.

Our General English Language Course focuses mainly on :-

          Speaking/Pronunciation/Conversational Skills

          Listening Skills             

          Grammar

          Reading

          Writing (this helps students keep in touch with their host families
            through email and letters/postcards)

English for Special Purposes (ESP) courses, including Business English which acquaints the student with the practitioners' language of Law and Political Theory, Computers, Accounts, Auditing and Economics could also be made available.

On arrival, students are asked to sit for a Placement Test. This is done in order to gauge the student's level of English. Students are then placed in a class that is commensurate with their level of English as results from the test. If students progress fast in that class they are invited to proceed to a superior level. The school's lack of rigidity is exploited for the benefit of the students' interest.

A Certificate is awarded to students who successfully complete their course.

The school has its own teaching material, but particularly in one-to-one tuition, teachers are amiable to students suggesting books and methodologies that suit their own particular requirements.

The school emphasizes the speaking of English without disregarding the grammatical requirements of the language.

 TEACHERS

We ensure that our hand-picked teachers are graduate teachers who possess all the qualifications and the EFL (English as a Foreign Language) teachers' permit as required by the EFL Schools' Monitoring Board and in accordance with the Legal Notice 60 of 1996. This ensures their high academic standard and an ability to understand and adapt to the needs of students from different cultures.

Students' Comments

"I had fun in Malta because it is a lovely island with beautiful landscapes. I met many friendly people. I like Malta because it is an English-speaking country.

With three hours of class per day, and the conversation with the host family, I think, actually I'm sure, that I really progressed in English."
