NSTS Malta

Over 60 years of academic excellence and cultural heritage in the heart of the Mediterranean


Founded in 1963 at the University of Malta, NSTS holds the prestigious title of being the very first English language school on the island. With over six decades of experience, we have mastered the art of combining high-level academic tuition with a truly authentic Maltese lifestyle.

Our boutique school, located in a charming classical townhouse in Gzira/Sliema, offers a unique ‘family-like’ atmosphere that you won’t find in larger institutions. At NSTS, we don’t just teach English; we provide a gateway to Maltese culture. Our students learn in small, dynamic groups—averaging just 6 to 10 people—ensuring personalized attention from our highly qualified teachers.

Whether you are relaxing in our private orange grove garden, participating in workshops in our vibrant common areas, or exploring the nearby Sliema seafront, NSTS provides a safe, inspiring, and historically rich environment to reach your language goals.
