And now, we’re excited to share that side of them with you.

Meet Our English Teachers – A New Video Series

We are launching a brand-new series of short, engaging video interviews featuring our fantastic academic team here at Gateway School of English (GSE).

In these bite-sized videos, you’ll get to know the people behind the lessons. The voices behind the pronunciation tips. The smiles that greet you every morning.

You’ll discover:

• What they love doing at the weekends
• Their favourite hobbies and passions
• The music genres they can’t live without
• Their favourite English idioms (and why!)
• How they relax after a busy teaching day
• A few fun surprises along the way

Here are some of the videos already posted on social media:

We are sharing these videos across YouTube, Instagram, and TikTok, so you can watch them wherever you are.

More Than Just Teachers

At GSE, we are incredibly proud of our academic team. They are highly qualified, committed professionals who truly care about their students’ progress. Their passion for teaching English is what makes our classrooms vibrant, motivating, and full of positive energy.

But great teachers are not only defined by their qualifications.

They are musicians. Travellers. Sports enthusiasts. Food lovers. Readers. Runners. Artists. Film fans. Dog lovers. Coffee experts. Weekend adventurers.

When you learn English with us, you’re not just learning grammar and vocabulary — you’re connecting with real people who bring their experiences, interests, humour, and personality into every lesson.

And that’s what makes learning at Gateway School of English so special.

Why we are doing this?

Language learning is about communication and connection.

By sharing these videos, we want you — our students, partners, and future learners — to feel even closer to the GSE community. Whether you’re already studying with us or thinking about joining, these interviews give you a genuine glimpse into the heart of our school.

You might even discover that your teacher:

• Loves the same music as you
• Uses the same favourite English expression
• Spends weekends hiking, baking, or binge-watching series
• Has a hidden talent you would never have guessed

And who knows? Their favourite idiom might just become yours too.

Watch, Share and Connect

We invite you to follow us on social media and keep an eye out for each new teacher spotlight.

The post Meet Our Teachers – A New Video Series appeared first on Gateway School of English.

In one video, students from many different countries share why they chose to study English in Malta, speaking candidly during their break at GSE. In another, students greet the day by saying “Good morning” in their own languages. Together, these moments perfectly reflect life at Gateway School of English: a place where language learning goes far beyond the classroom.

@study_english_malta_gse Learning English in Malta is fun and international. You will meet students from all over the world and have a good time like Juliette and Emy. They love Malta and Gateway School of English GSE #learnEnglish #englishcourses #englishschool #studyenglish #intercambio ♬ original sound – Learn English GSE

A Truly International Experience

At GSE, diversity is not just something we talk about – it’s something you live every day. Our students come from Europe, Latin America, Asia, the Middle East and beyond. Each break time becomes an opportunity to meet new people, exchange cultures and practise English naturally with classmates from different backgrounds.

In the video filmed during break time, students explain in their own words why Malta is such an attractive destination for studying English. Some talk about the friendly atmosphere, others about the quality of teaching, and many mention how easy it is to make international friends. These spontaneous moments show what brochures cannot: real connections, real conversations, and real confidence growing day by day.

@study_english_malta_gse Good morning from Gateway School of English GSE! #international #world #oneworld #peace #malta ♬ original sound – Learn English GSE

One Language, Many Voices

The second video starts the day in a beautiful way. Students from different countries say “Good morning” in their native languages – a simple gesture that carries a powerful message. Before even opening a textbook, you are reminded that English connects people from many cultures, while still respecting and celebrating their differences.

Hearing so many languages side by side highlights one of the greatest advantages of studying at Gateway School of English. You are not only improving your English skills, but also gaining global awareness, cultural understanding and friendships that often last long after the course ends.

Why Study English in Malta?

Malta offers the perfect balance between high-quality English education and an exceptional lifestyle. As an English-speaking country with a Mediterranean climate, Malta provides an immersive environment where students can practise English both inside and outside the classroom.

After lessons at GSE, students can explore historic cities, relax by the sea, enjoy international cuisine or take part in social activities organised by the school. English becomes part of everyday life – ordering food, making friends, travelling around the island – making learning faster, more natural and more enjoyable.

Learning Beyond the Classroom

At Gateway School of English, we believe that language learning happens everywhere. The classroom provides structure, expert guidance and clear progress, but it is the interaction between students that brings English to life.

The videos show students chatting comfortably, sharing experiences and supporting one another. This is the result of an inclusive learning environment where students feel confident, respected and encouraged to speak. When learners feel at home, they speak more, practise more and improve faster.

More Than an English Course

Choosing to study at Gateway School of English in Malta means choosing more than just an English course. It means choosing an international experience, personal growth and unforgettable memories.

From hearing “good morning” in dozens of languages to making friends during break time, every day at GSE reflects the beauty of studying English in a multicultural environment. Malta brings people together, and English becomes the bridge that connects them.

If you’re looking for a place where high-quality English education meets cultural diversity, sunshine and genuine human connection, Gateway School of English in Malta is ready to welcome you.

Good morning. Buongiorno. Buenos días. Bonjour. Guten Morgen. おはよう. Günaydın
No matter how you say it, at GSE it always means the start of a new opportunity.

It’s an unforgettable way to learn, travel, and celebrate together.

We have special prices for kids classes and accommodation in the GSE residence or host families.

We all know the old English saying: “An apple a day keeps the doctor away.” It’s simple, memorable, and emphasizes the power of consistency. Just like an apple a day keeps you healthy, dedicating a small amount of time every day to learning English can dramatically improve your language skills—and save you from constantly relying on translation tools!

Our online English courses make that possible. By committing just 1.5 hours a day, Monday through Friday, you can steadily improve your English from the comfort of your own home.

And here’s the best part: all this comes at a fabulous price of only €25 per week! That’s right—just €25 a week for daily, interactive English lessons that could save you years of confusion, frustration, and endless translating.

Our location in Malta is also among the cleanest and safest places as it is located in a quiet villa area, with large open spaces around the school and residence accommodation.

Malta: Among the Safest Countries in the World

Recent data from the World Justice Project (WJP) Rule of Law Index show that Malta ranks 12th out of 143 countries worldwide in the “Order & Security” category. 
For context: this means that Malta is not only safe relative to many other countries around the globe, but also among the top tier of European destinations for students seeking peace of mind. 
Other statistics underline this: Malta’s crime rate has decreased from about 46 crimes per 1,000 people in 2004 to about 30 per 1,000 in recent years.

Why That Matters for English Language Study

Here’s how Malta’s safety and friendly environment benefit you as an English-language student:

Focus on learning, not distraction: When you’re in a secure environment, you’ll have greater peace of mind, which means you’re free to focus wholly on your English course at GSE — improving your skills, participating in class and engaging fully in conversations.

Feel comfortable practising English outside of class: Malta is bilingual (English and Maltese), so English is widely spoken in daily life. Being in a safe place means you’ll feel confident practising English in cafés, shops, on buses or when exploring — enhancing your immersion.

Travel and explore with reassurance: Part of learning a language abroad is the extra-curricular exploration of local culture, history and environment. Malta’s safety ranking means you can explore the island, join social activities, meet fellow students and enjoy your stay without undue worry.

Supportive student-friendly environment: When a country is recognised globally for its security and stability, local institutions — including language schools — tend to be well-equipped to support international students. At GSE, we make student welfare a top priority, from arrival assistance to accommodation and daily help.

Why Choose GSE in Malta

As one of the established English language schools in Malta, GSE offers you a trusted and high-quality learning environment. Situated in a safe location in Malta and backed by our professional teachers and supportive student services, we combine strong academic programmes with the added benefit of studying in an internationally-recognised safe destination.

A Few Practical Tips for Students

• Arrive prepared but relaxed: Knowing you are in one of the safest countries will help you hit the ground running.
• Make use of your free time: Explore local culture, join our school-organised social events, practise English in real-world situations.
• Confidence comes from familiarity: Even in a safe country, it’s wise to use common-sense precautions — e.g., keep your belongings secure, be aware of your surroundings when travelling late.
• Get involved: The local Maltese community is friendly and welcoming to international students. That helps you integrate, practise English and build confidence.  Especially if you’re living with a Maltese host fmaily you will experience the hospitality of the locals, their

In summary: If you’re looking for a place to study English where your personal safety is taken seriously, where you can concentrate on learning, integrate into English-speaking everyday life and enjoy a welcoming student environment, then Malta — and GSE in particular — should be at the top of your list. With Malta recently ranked 12th globally for safety in “Order & Security”, you’re choosing a destination where you can flourish. We look forward to welcoming you at Gateway School of English and helping you achieve your English-language goals in a secure, vibrant and motivating setting.
