WHY NEW ZEALAND?
In today's current social and economic climate, New Zealand offers a highly competitive and safe environment as a holiday destination and a place to learn English. After the devastating events that occurred on September 11th 2001, America and England are no longer attractive destinations for English Language tuition. Safety has become a major issue for individuals and tour groups and New Zealand has stepped up to shine as a safe alternative. While many people have known this for years and have been taking advantage of what beautiful New Zealand has to offer, being on the opposite side of the world from those two countries is indeed becoming more of an advantage. This coupled with the favourable exchange rate for most non English speaking countries makes scenic New Zealand an affordable and viable destination to learn English.

Made up of 3 main islands, New Zealand boasts stunning scenery, lush forests, gorgeous beaches and fascinating wild life. These all add up to make an amazing natural environment not found anywhere else in the world.

Situated in the South Pacific Ocean, New Zealand's two main Islands (North and South) cover roughly 266200 sq km, about the size of Japan and slightly larger than Great Britain. With mountain ranges, National Parks, Volcanoes and an abundance of lakes, New Zealand is well known for its clean and green, unspoilt image.
