Link School of English

Roger de Gaetano, Director of Link School of English, Malta

 

Why would a student choose his school?

We have been established for almost 30 years and we remained a middle sized school only offering  personal attention. This is what students request form us. Foreing students deserve the confort of their own home in our country.  With the mixture of nationalities in our school, students are exposed to a variety of nationalities thus they must only communicate in English.

 

 

In your opinion, what are the main benefits for a student studying abroad?

A full immersion in English is available in our school. In Malta English is spoken everywhere, and foreign students are thus given the right opportunity to immerse in our language since they are given the space to live-the-language. “Talk to Me” is a new course which allows students to improve their conversational skills. Generally students fear mistakes so speak less. This fear ir overcome with the assistance of our professional techers. 

 

 

How do you see the future of language tourism?

The only way to widen and broaden one’s future is to travel, and the tourism industry will never die. 
People are in search of new job opportunities and the use of English is thoroughly essential in this day and age.

 

 

What is a day like for a student at your school and what is networking among peers like?

“English for busness communications” since it encapsulates all the needed material to develop any skill or apply for job opportunities. We are born to work and the most successful are those who seek and strive with the right tools. English is the most essential tool to theis success. Our staff are trained to stimulate everybody’s experience in English with sheer success.
