I really liked the classes because I improved my listening and my speaking. My teacher was perfect for me, he helped me a lot.
I didn't like the test at the end of the course because it was a written test which was exactly the same as the test at the beginning. I went to this school to improve my listening and my speaking, so I think that the test would be better if it was different.
I am glad you enjoyed your course and your teacher.
We use the same test at the beginning and the end as we can then accurately measure improvement. You did well.
Homestays are carefully selected and offer students the opportunity to learn more about the local culture in a comfortable setting while studying English in Tauranga. These homes are often between 25 - 50 minutes away from the school by public transport. Families usually offer affordable meal plans that allow you to sample the local cuisine. If you have special requests or diet restrictions (because of religion or health reasons), please let us know in advance. Your housing starts on the Sunday before your first day of class and ends on the Saturday after your last day of class, unless otherwise noted. Learn more about homestay housing
