I love getting to know people and shaping conversations around their language level, interests and goals.

You might already be attending a language school and want extra speaking practice. You might be supporting an international student settling into life in New Zealand. Or you might be preparing for IELTS.

Whatever your reason, you're welcome here.

All levels welcome — beginner, intermediate and advanced
