In Malta

             I wrote how I managed to go to Malta in the previous post and now it is time to speak about what happened there.
             I arrived and I was very happy. I saw a taxi driver waiting out side of airport with a paper in hand written Chamber College with capital letters. It is the language school that I registered. I got in the taxi. I wasn't alone. There were 7-8 other students came from Turkey.
            The driver started driving car but there was something wrong. He was sitting on the right side of car. Traffic in Malta is on the right side. It was very difficult for me to get used to it. We arrived at the apart and next day went to school. I was disappointed that There were too much Turkish in Malta. We were 11 in class and 7 of them were from Turkey. We were 6 at the apart and 4 of them were Turkish. It wasn't good for me as I wanted to improve my English. And I also had many challenges to come here, so I decided not to speak with them.
           The Chamber College was very good. We had different teachers from different English speaking countries but mainly from Malta and England. I attended almost all lessons and some of activities. The classes were changed every week. Every week some new students were coming. I learned a lot there. My friends were mainly from South Korea, Spain, and Japan.
            To be in Malta contributed a lot to my English. I become more fluent and gain self-esteem. In addition to that I learn many new cultures that extended my horizon. The only think that I regret was not to pay attention to my pronunciation. I had never care about it, because I always think that the fluency and gaining the habit of language are more important.
             Actually there are a lot I have to say about Malta, but it is difficult to organize all of them.  To make it short, I would like to say that Malta is very good place to improve English as English is official language with Maltese.
