Overview
ESE teaches on Paceville Avenue in St Julian’s, close to restaurants and the seafront. The building has Wi-Fi, student space and an in-house residence. The location suits students who want to spend time in town after class. General English ranges from short courses to longer stays of eight weeks or more. ESE also offers a welcome event and online learning resources. Courses taught by another institute in the same building and junior programmes at other venues have different conditions, so check that the quote covers the intended ESE adult course and accommodation. The main school has two terraces, a cafeteria, a library and a computer lab for breaks, research or revision. Students in the school residence can reach class from the third floor of the same building. Those who prefer to practise English over meals with a host family can ask about the commute when requesting a quote. The main school provides a 24-hour welfare service.

Fees
ESE quotes General English by study length, weekly schedule and accommodation. A published starting price is available, but the four-week price for the same dates with 28 nights in a private half-board homestay and all required charges could not be confirmed from public documents. Ask the school to itemise accommodation, materials, registration, transfers and the eco contribution, separately from flights and optional lessons. The published terms list registration at €50, adult accommodation placement at €45, the first course book at €30 and insurance at €15 per week (€60 for four weeks). The terms require Guard.me travel, health and cancellation insurance. The brochure describes accommodation packages that include arrival transfer and utilities. Check the inclusion in your chosen quote. A separate €100 deposit is due at check-in for residences and apartments. Any outstanding charges or damage can be deducted before the balance is returned at check-out. Checked 8 November 2026.

Accommodation
Homestay includes breakfast and dinner. Most hosts are within walking distance, but the room and route depend on the household. A supplement can apply for special diets. ESE’s self-catering apartments have private and shared rooms, air conditioning, Wi-Fi and weekly cleaning and linen changes. ESE Residence is in the school building and offers rooms with private bathrooms. The booking conditions differ for single and shared occupancy, so check the room terms in the quote. ESE describes the in-house residence as hotel-style accommodation with single and double room arrangements. Ask about the meal plan for that room, since it is separate from the homestay arrangement.
