We keep our class sizes small (no more than 10 students in any one class). Our teachers are friendly, highly qualified and focused on creating a lively, stimulating classroom atmosphere. Our campuses are located in Whitianga and Thames – both on the Coromandel Peninsula, one of the most beautiful tourism areas in New Zealand.

Students improve their English conversation skills in excellent homestay environments, and also through participation in community activities. Our emphasis on practical use of the language is what makes so many of our students excel. In fact, our students consistently score higher than the national averages in test scores. But don’t just count on what we say, explore our website for yourself, and contact us if you have questions that haven’t been answered on this website. Good luck with your English learning voyage!

Framed by native Pohutukawa trees on the western side, beautiful white sandy beaches in the east and divided by ranges cloaked in native rainforest, the Coromandel’s 400 kms of coastline offer the visitor a truly distinctive blend of experiences.

The key feature of The Coromandel is our people. Known as friendly, relaxed and welcoming, they look forward to meeting you and sharing their little paradise with you.

The weather in New Zealand is changeable, so please be prepared for all kinds of weather. We recommend that you bring a raincoat with you, as well as warm clothes, swim wear and a hat.
