Clubclass

Clubclass English Language School, a family-run business, was founded in 1999 with the aim of providing high level tuition and quality accommodation to foreign students wishing to learn English. Since opening its doors to learning 20 years ago, Clubclass has firmly established itself as one of the leading English Language Schools in Malta and the only one to offer learning, accommodation and facilities all under the same roof. This combination helps students spend less time commuting and allows them more time for study or leisure. Other accommodation options such as our student house, student hostel, residence apartments and as well as residence with host families are also available.

Over the years, Clubclass English Language School has attracted thousands of students from all across the globe, with students checking in from mainland Europe and as far as Asia and South America. The ever-increasing popularity of Clubclass amongst international students is testimony to the passion we put into our teaching and the strong relationship we build with all those who choose to stay with us.

At Clubclass we strive to foster a family atmosphere between staff and student in order to create a home-away-from-home environment. Ultimately, we take pride in our students achieving the best results possible from their respective courses and more importantly, that they enjoy their experience.

Our Purpose

Our purpose is to create meaningful experiences that go beyond learning – building confidence, connection and a genuine sense of belonging for everyone we welcome

Our Values

Be Fair, Always

We treat everyone with respect and ensure fairness is a two-way street. We listen, we collaborate, and we engage in open, honest discussions— even when it’s tough. We believe fairness is about balance; sometimes we give more, sometimes
we receive more, but in the long run, it evens out.

Make Time for each other – ASLA - Ask, Stop, Listen, Ask Again

Everyone’s voice matters. We don’t just hear; we truly listen. We show appreciation through time, attention, and respect for each other’s contributions. Autonomy and accountability go hand in hand—when we trust each other, we thrive. And this is how we feel valued. It is a matter of giving quality time.

Achieve More, Together

We work as a team, knowing that even on tough days, we are not alone. We take ownership of our actions, learn from mistakes, and move forward together. Support isn’t about avoiding challenges—it’s about helping each other navigate them with trust and care.

Take Action and Own It

  • Take action: Make decisions with confidence, knowing you have the space to think, innovate,
    and take calculated risks.
  • Own the outcome: Whether the result is a success or a learning opportunity, take responsibility instead of shifting blame.
  • Seek support: If things don’t go as planned, ask for help—our culture is built on learning, not fear.
  • Recognize and learn: Celebrate great decisions and use setbacks as a chance to grow and improve.
  • Lead by example: Leaders set the tone—by owning our choices, we empower others to do the
    same.

Malta

Malta, the smallest country in the European Union, barely exceeds 300 square kilometers and is the main island of the Maltese Archipelago. Situated in the heart of the Mediterranean Sea, it is easily accessible from all major European airports. Having been a colony for various foreign rulers throughout history, Malta gained independence from Great Britain in 1964 and became a full member of the European Union on May 1, 2004.

In 1936, English, alongside Maltese, became a formal language in Malta and is spoken by virtually all its native inhabitants. Signs around the islands, as well as museum displays, restaurant menus, and advertising billboards, are reproduced in both Maltese and English.

The students who visit Malta will immerse themselves in it during every moment of their stay. While Malta’s warm weather and the stunning Mediterranean Sea are its main attractions, it offers much more than just sun, sea, and fun. For discerning and mature students, Malta boasts a rich history, with free-standing structures older than Stonehenge and palaces built by the Knights of St. John. Valletta, Malta’s magnificent baroque capital city, is a museum in itself, home to no fewer than thirty chapels and churches, some of which are exquisitely ornate and well worth a visit.

If you’re looking to learn or improve your English while being treated like family, explore the beauty of the Maltese Islands, and discover their rich history, you’ve come to the right place

General Information

Malta’s weather is heavily influenced by the sea. With long, hot and dry summers and short, cool and sporadically wet winters, Malta’s climate is typically Mediterranean. Malta is very sunny with an average of five to six hours of sunshine a day in winter and over twelve hours of sunshine a day in summer. The temperature in Malta is very stable, the annual mean being 18ºC and the monthly averages ranging from 12ºC to 31ºC. In Winter although the temperatures do not reach -0ºC, it is still very cold due to the humidity, so one has to ensure that a jacket is worn.

SUMMER:
Easily reach 30ºC and students are advised to wear a hat, sunglasses, and use protective sunscreen to avoid any over exposure to the sun. In peak summer months, students must take the necessary precautions against heat exhaustion and sunburn, and try to avoid the strong direct sunlight between 11:00 and 15:00.

The Maltese coastal waters are generally clean and safe for swimming and snorkeling as there are no tides.  The island’s top sandy beaches are located in the northern part of Malta.  Around the Sliema and St. Julian’s area there are a number of rocky beaches.  Beachwear is for beaches only, and topless and nude sunbathing is prohibited.

The public bus service in Malta and Gozo is a good way to get around as the buses serve the major tourist areas and go practically everywhere.  Almost all bus routes in Malta originate from City Gate Bus Terminus in Valletta.  Students planning to use the public buses must have the correct fare when boarding the bus or they can buy a Travel Card.  The Gozo Channel operates a car ferry between Cirkewwa, Malta and Mgarr, Gozo offering frequent crossings with a journey time of approximately 20 minutes.  There is also a ferry service between each island and Comino.  Check locally for schedules.

Driving

Unlike many other countries, driving in Malta is on the left hand side of the road so please be careful when crossing the road as drivers do not always stop at pedestrian crossings.

Commercial centres and shops are usually easily accessible by public or private transport.  The main shopping areas in Malta are Valletta (the capital city) and Sliema.  Shops are normally open from Monday to Saturday (09:00 to 13:00 and 16:00 to 19:00); however there are certain shops and supermarkets which remain open all day and also open on the weekend.  In tourist areas, many shops remain open until 22:00.  Shops are normally closed on Sundays and Public Holidays.

Malta has an excellent health service.  Hospitals are modern and supported by a regional network of health centres.  Students who are EU/EEA nationals are entitled to free medical care at public hospitals in Malta on presentation of their E111 European Health Insurance Card.  During the summer months mosquitoes are common at twilight and though they do not transmit any disease, can be an annoyance.  The Mediterranean is prone to jellyfish and though none are deadly, they can give the unaware swimmer a nasty sting.

The Maltese cuisine is based on typical Mediterranean food with a strong Italian influence.  Amongst many Maltese dishes the most popular are: ‘Fenek’ (stewed rabbit cooked in wine), ‘Minestra’ (a vegetable broth), ‘Lampuki’ pie (fish pie), ‘Bragoli’ (parcels of mince, chopped eggs and parsley wrapped in thin sheets of beef), ‘Timpana’ (a baked pasta dish).  A popular snack is ‘Pastizzi’ (savoury pastries filled with either ricotta cheese or peas).  These dishes are often cooked in Maltese homes and available in most restaurants specialising in local dishes.  ‘Helwa tat-Tork’ (a sweet sugary mixture of crushed and whole almonds) and ricotta sweets are popular. The best Maltese fruits are oranges, grapes, strawberries, melons, mulberries, tangerines, pomegranates and figs.  Lots of restaurants are available for all tastes and budgets – from gourmet dining to fast food.  Malta also offers an exciting choice of international cuisines such as Italian, French, Spanish, Chinese, Indian, Malaysian, Lebanese, Turkish and many more.  Several fast-food chains are also available, such as Pizza Hut, McDonalds, Burger King, KFC, etc.

All major credit cards are accepted at most shops and restaurants in Malta.  There are numerous ATM machines where one can make cash withdrawals.

The largest and most popular entertainment area in Malta is Paceville.  Here one can find a great number of bars, restaurants, nightclubs etc. and the majority of young Maltese and English Language students frequent these places in the evenings.  Paceville is mostly popular with youngsters (17-25 years) especially during the summer months, as college and university students will be on their holidays.  For the more mature generation, there are wine bars, discos and casinos.  For those students who are not really interested in nightlife and clubbing, one can also find cinemas, a bowling alley and a shopping mall in Paceville.
