Established in 1991, Taupo language attracts students who prefer to study
English in a smaller town, close to nature and where they get to know
many of the friendly local kiwis. In 2004, students came from 17 different
nationalities, with the largest percentage from French speaking Pacific
countries. Because the school offers small class sizes (max 10 ), and
the teachers are very well qualified and have been teaching English for
many years, the students gain the necessary individual attention required
to learn and understand English. The school is a TOEIC testing centre,
and also offers IELTS and Cambridge classes on a regular basis.
There are four main class levels, with end of week assessments, extension
reading novels and nightly homework. After classes students can then enjoy
the activities, which are all taught in English.
