The Staff at English Language Matters Ltd

  All staff at English Language Matters are selected for their English language teaching skills and qualifications, as well as for their own experiences in other cultures. Not all our teaching staff are New Zealanders so they can give you their insights into adapting to New Zealand life. We also provide Conversation Assistants who are regular people from the Dunedin community who visit with your classes once a week for some ‘free style’ discussion of “Kiwi” (New Zealand) culture.

The Management at English Language Matters Limited are highly qualified with many years of experience in their fields. We even have a Registered Psychologist on staff as our Student Welfare Director, so your well-being could not be in better hands.
