“One of the best schools in the world”

I chose EC because it is one of the best schools in the world! I like the smart TVs they have in the classrooms. The methodology is very good, so you never feel bored in class. I no longer feel shy to speak to people in English – this is one thing I really enjoy about EC! I made a lot of friends here in Malta from different countries, so you learn different things about countries. I think this is the best way to learn English. It’s not just friends for one class, it’s friends for life.
