Latest Newsletter – August 2019

We have passionate tutors who wish to see English accessable to everyone who wishes to learn.  All our Tutors are experienced in teaching English as a second Language.

Our style of teaching can be a little different to what Learners may have been used to but we have found that this is effective and very popular.  We offer a friendly relaxed environment for Students to learn.

Not all learners wish to obtain a certification in English.  Most just want to be able to learn enough English to be able to interact with others in the Community or to be able to understand answers to their questions when purchasing a bus ticket or going into the Bank.

Because we are not directly curriculum driven, we are able to hesitate at any time to ensure that our Students understand what we are teaching before we move on.  This allows our Students to gain confidence and to learn at their own pace.  All our Students undergo testing during the term but the focus is more on showing them how far they have come.  We tend to tailor our classes each term to suit the needs of those who are attending.

Pre-Paid English Fees paid to Immigration New Zealand.

Did you know that we are able to access those fees for you.  So if you had to pay to study English as part of your Visa requirement, then you are able to come and study with us.
Phone the Office on 444-1353 for more information.

We are always looking to add more courses to our Centre, so if you speak another language fluently then we wish to hear from you.  In particular Chinese and French.

We have enquiries on a regular basis to be able to bring back our Office Administration Course.  We need people who can teach Microsft Word, Excel as well as Web development and Social Media Marketing.

If you are interest or feel you have a skill or talent that you wish to share with others, then we would love to hear from you.

Next term we will be offering discounts on most of our courses for those holding Student ID’s, have a Community Services Card or a Super Gold Card (please do not be offended if we ask for a copy as proof).   Please note that due to outside providers using our facility, some courses may not qualify for the discount, like the AA Defensive Driving Course.
We wish to encourage and make it easier for those needing skills to return to the workforce, that they are able to access these courses and have financial help in doing so.
Our ESOL Students will also receive a discount if they enrol in another course other than General English.  This is a great way for them to be able to develop relationships outside their families and classes with others in the Community.  It is also a great way for them to develop and use the English they are using during the day.
