Do you speak English as a second language, and need help gaining your drivers licence?
English Language Partners can help!
The ESOL Road Code course prepares English learners to take their learner driver theory test, and to understand the road rules so they can drive safely in New Zealand.
Topics include: road signs, navigating roundabouts, intersections and pedestrian crossings, changing lanes, parking, following directions and responding in an emergency.
The programme handbook provides lesson maps outlining the topic, learning outcomes, suggested resources, lesson ideas and follow up tasks. Lesson content comes from the official New Zealand Road Code, Driving Test EZY book and DVD, and a variety of online resources and practice tests.
This programme is delivered intensively over 4 -10 weeks (depending on your starting level). We have in-class and online options available.
If you are a New Zealand resident visa holder and currently employed, classes are FREE!
Many of our programmes are free. There is a small cost for some of our classes.If you are a PELT student, your class course cost and admin fee will be deducted from the money you pre-paid Immigration New Zealand for English lessons (PELT). Ask at your English Language Partners’ centre.
