EF Language School Malta

by Naeem

Jun 28, 2011

EF Malta is very disorganized. The school is the most expensive in Malta, very weak staff and management not oriented to teach the language properly. They lack discipline and seem to only want to grab money. No quality at all. I transferred all my students to another school.

I have used EF (about 15 years ago) and the lower price (to...See More
