What they say

How real learners have found their experience.

Mosoumeh

LEARNER

The teacher and support person, Jalal, helped me understand NZ driving rules. VTNZ coming to the Centre is good. I like the Centre.

Fatemeh

LEARNER

I am very happy now that I passed the test! I can now learn driving in New Zealand.

Moallemeh

LEARNER

The teacher showed us the Drive website to study. I kept practising the questions – it was very helpful.

Kaimo Jiao

LEARNER

The teacher is exceptional and did not (only) teach us specific knowledge, she taught us how to fish. This kind of style of teaching reformed my previous way of learning English.

Jino George

LEARNER

The course was very useful. The teacher's attitude and inspiration motivated me to learn English. I decided to work hard to improve my language, which is a barrier in the communication. I learnt the importance of stress, intonation and language functions which helped me to improve my pronunciation. I would like to join in her class anytime if I get a chance.😊

I was lucky to get to your Road Code course. Migrants need a driver licence so much, but the language barrier prevents them. Thanks to you, anyone can get a driver's licence easily.
