English language preparation

Our highly regarded English Language department can help you gain the literacy ability to study in New Zealand.

On your first day you complete an English language assessment which helps us to identify your strengths and learning goals and to plan your best study path with you.

There are a number of ways that we can assess your English language level so that you can apply for your chosen programme.

We are a Category 1 provider (the best) so we may be able to accept you onto our academic programmes even if you haven't taken an IELTS examination.

Perhaps you have taken another type of English language exam such as TOEFL, or you have studied at a New Zealand secondary school within the last 3 years.

Our programmes recognise the knowledge and experience that you already have and build on this to maximise your learning.
