The 50+ Course is an ideal choice for adults who are over fifty years of age wishing to improve their English while making the most of an enjoyable leisurely holiday in Malta.

Life in Malta is conducted in an English-speaking ambiance that enhances the use of English throughout, be it in shops, banks, restaurants, theatres, cinemas, museum, and hotels.
