When I heard about the opportunity to go to Malta for two weeks of English lessons, I was a bit worried because my level of English was very basic: I only knew a few essential words, like a child just starting to talk. However, I have always had a great desire to travel abroad and, although I liked the idea of understanding and making myself understood by others, I was never motivated to learn English. I often asked others for help to communicate my thoughts in English. But thanks to the support and guidance of Ana Maria Solis, I decided to undertake this study journey. She explained in detail what this experience entailed, how to participate, and what the benefits could be for a senior person like me. We had meetings during which she illustrated every step necessary to face before and during the two weeks in Valletta. She was very kind in explaining how the test worked, the accommodation in Valletta, the flight, and the opportunities for sightseeing during my free time.
In fact, Ana Maria Solis found us accommodation on the same street as the school, so my wife Rita and I could reach the school on foot. The same was true for our two Tuscan friends, Gianni and Vera Moretti, who supported us the entire time. Gianni and I were placed in the same group based on our level of English, while Vera, having a more advanced level of English, followed us in all activities. She took care of us especially in the first days of adjustment both at school and with the accommodation, organizing outings after school always in a group, which facilitated our stay in Valletta.
I must say that the experience was extremely positive and exceeded my expectations. The teachers were very helpful and professional, and the teaching method was very innovative. At Easy School of Languages (EasySL), the welcoming atmosphere and high teaching standards had a significant impact and left a lasting impression on me.
One of the distinctive features was the use of innovative teaching methods. The modern and effective approach of the school kept me engaged and motivated throughout the course, greatly enhancing my learning experience. In fact, now I can express myself with essential phrases in various real-life contexts, although I will need to continue learning continuously. Thanks to this experience, I would say that I have overcome the fear of making mistakes and the fear of communicating, even while making errors.
An especially interesting aspect was the harmonious integration of learning and leisure. Classes ended at 2:30 pm, and I was able to perfectly combine educational activities with enjoyable experiences, making the entire journey both productive and fun. This blend of usefulness and pleasure added a unique dimension to my learning process.
Malta, being an island rich in history, art, and natural beauty, provided the perfect backdrop for the educational experience. The rich cultural and historical heritage of the island greatly enriched my stay, offering numerous opportunities for exploration and learning outside the classroom. This environment allowed me to immerse myself in the local culture, making my experience even more complete.
In conclusion, my time at Easy School of Languages was highly positive and enriching. The combination of professional and supportive teachers, innovative teaching methods, and the integration of cultural and recreational activities made the experience truly exceptional. The rich historical and cultural context of Malta further enhanced my learning journey, making it an unforgettable experience that exceeded all my expectations.
I am particularly grateful to Ana Maria Solis for her invaluable support in the preparations before my departure and during my stay in Valletta. Her assistance was crucial in ensuring a smooth and enriching experience. Solis Srl organized all the activities and provided detailed explanations throughout the entire process, from pre-departure guidance to on-site assistance, even remotely.
In summary, my time at Easy School of Languages was highly positive and enriching. The combination of professional and supportive teachers, innovative teaching methods, and the integration of cultural and recreational activities made the experience truly exceptional. The rich historical and cultural context of Malta further enhanced my learning journey, making it an unforgettable experience that exceeded all my expectations. I am deeply grateful to Solis Srl for their support, which made this incredible experience possible.
