Let us show you what a typical day looks like at GV Malta!
07:30 – Wake Up to Sunshine
Your day begins with the warm Maltese sun and the sound of the sea. Whether you’re staying with a host family, in the school residence or in private accommodation, mornings in Malta feel peaceful and fresh. Most students enjoy a light breakfast before heading to school – maybe some toast, fruit or tea. A healthy start to a busy day!
09:00 – Time for Class
Lessons begin at 9:00. You’ll join your teacher and classmates from all over the world. Everyone is here to improve their English in a friendly and positive environment. Classes are interactive and lively. You’ll practise speaking, listening, reading and writing – all with topics related to everyday life. The lessons are dynamic and engaging, helping you build confidence quickly.
10:30 – Break Time
At 10:30 it’s time to relax. During the 30-minute break, students enjoy a coffee or a snack on the rooftop, lounge or at a local café. Many try the traditional pastizzi – a popular Maltese pastry! It’s also the perfect time to chat with friends to practise your English.
11:00 – Back to Learning
After the break, lessons continue with engaging activities such as task-based exercises and conversation practice. Our teachers ensure you speak as much as possible and truly enjoy the learning experience. Classes finish at 12:30, giving you plenty of time to enjoy the afternoon exploring Malta.
13:00 – Afternoon Lessons at GV Malta
For those who want to make the most of their English learning journey, the afternoon is the perfect time to dive deeper in your learning. You can choose to join a conversation class, where you’ll practise speaking with students from all over the world – a great way to boost your fluency while learning about different cultures.
If you prefer a more personalised experience, private lessons are also available. These one-to-one sessions are tailored to your specific goals, whether you’re looking to improve your general English, refine your Business English, or prepare for an exam like IELTS or Cambridge.
14:30 – Lunch with a View
St. Paul’s Bay is full of restaurants and snack bars. After class, you can enjoy lunch near the sea – from pizza and pasta to fresh salads or takeaway wraps. Some students eat together on the rooftop or next to the sea. It’s a great moment to relax, share experiences, and enjoy the Maltese weather.

In the evening, GV Malta works with English Café Malta, an organisation that hosts language exchange events, pub nights and social meetups.

I studied with my children for 4 weeks and this experience was amazing. My teachers and classmates were friendly and the lessons were dynamic and participatory. Malta is a good country for studying English in Winter because other European countries are colder than Malta. I recommend GV Malta to study English.
I really enjoy this school life.
I met a lot of people from other countries. When I had any problem, GV Malta's teachers and receptionist always helped me. As a result I'm able to enjoy my school life with peace of mind.
