Berlin – Prenzlauer Berg

One of those places is Prenzlauer Berg. Prenzlauer Berg (which means ‘hill of Prenzlau’) is a quarter of Berlin that is especially popular among students, young people and artists. Forget London’s Soho or New York’s Brooklyn – Prenzlauer Berg is where young aspiring artists live and work!

Why learn English in Malta?

1st Malta-TopSituated in the heart of the Mediterranean, Malta offers a unique combination of the East and the West. Many civilisations battled over this strategic small territory over the years, and all seem to have left their own visible footprints.

Originally a quiet fishing village, St Julian’s has gone through major transformations: located along the seaside, St Julian’s Bay is undoubtedly one of the most attractive tourist destinations of this intriguing country and home to one of our English language schools in Malta.

As Malta only gained its independence from Great Britain in 1974, English is still one of the two official languages of the country, along with the Maltese language which is a mix of Arabic, Italian, English and French. This is not the only asset of Malta; its southern location makes it an ideal place to enjoy a year-round sunny and mild weather.
