Last Friday I finished a week Business English Course , which I took part with two German students. I am feeling a little bit sad now because the German girl was so sweet and the man was very nice and interesting person to speak with but now they have both gone home.

What i found very useful for the student was the course certificate they got from the school at the end of their course. Additionally, the teacher gave them a satisfaction questionnaire to fill in. I think it’s very useful for the school. It lets the school’s staff know how their students are feeling.

Today I’ve just started a new General English Course. This time the course is about general matters and for a group of Russian teenage students with an upper Intermediate level of English. When they introduced themselves this morning, they said that they will be at Alpha School for a week and they are having a lot of fun in Malta. In this course it is very important that the teacher stresses, as she does, that they must always speak and ask questions in English. Of course they came to Malta to learn English so they are not allowed to speak their mother language during the lesson. There are a maximum of 10 students in the course. The teacher checks attendance at the beginning of the lesson to make sure that everyone is in the classroom. Students who attend less than 90% of their lessons do not receive a certificate so everyone always comes to class!!!
