Services   If you are a New Zealand resident and would like help to improve your English language skills, we will try to find you a volunteer home tutor. The tutor will come to your home for about an hour every week to help you with the English that you need. We also run Social English Groups to assist new learners to practise their English in a supportive environment. All our services are free to New Zealand residents. Please contact us if you would like help with your English.
