Learn English in New Zealand

A pair of islands, first inhabited less than a millennium ago by a fortunate group of navigators known as the Maoris, perhaps New Zealand is not yet used to the presence of human beings. Everywhere, from the snowy peaks (a mecca for snowboarders in July), to the volcanic plains and the prehistoric forests, this country recalls a time when nature was wild and unconquered, itself taming those who dared to plunge into it. A latecomer to maps and off-centre in the English-speaking Empire, New Zealand was predestined to attract those who can no longer bear the rest of the world. The colonists found a paradise, and dedicated it to water sports, rugby and barbecues. Faced with an incredibly benevolent environment, New Zealanders have also been able to conceive a progressive way of life. And to establish cutting edge social laws, like giving women the right to vote as early as 1893. The sort of characteristics that attract visitors, and New Zealand welcomes them proudly, as a link to the rest of the world. In the temperate climate of Auckland’s sailing seas, you never feel a sense of isolation. A harbour city, where human contact ebbs and flows with the tides, and the inhabitants discover other countries through the tales of travellers. A crossroads for all of Polynesia. There is no doubt that, outside of its multiple flora and fauna, New Zealand possesses a human charm that makes it irresistible.
