Learn fast, gain confidence, have fun

There are three ways to learn English with Lingoo:

Language exchange – you, your child or family stays with a family in New Zealand then the other family’s member (or members) stays with you and your family. Find out more

Stay with a teacher – you or your child stay in the home of a teacher in New Zealand for more structured lessons. Find out more.

Our hosts all over New Zealand are ready to welcome you into their homes to help you learn English.  Each has been approved using stringent security checks by the Lingoo team. Now they are ready to help you learn fast, grow in confidence, and experience their New Zealand culture and lifestyle. 

Marked by volcanoes and glaciation, New Zealand is a long and narrow island nation, made up of two main landmasses and 600 smaller islands. The popular cosmopolitan cities of Auckland and the country's capital Wellington are situated on North Island with gorgeous beaches and great surf. Moody windswept coastlines, primeval forests, snow capped mountains and impressive geysers makeup the hiking paradise landscapes of Fiordland on South Island. There are lots of opportunities to see the penguins, whales and seals that ring the shores.

 Renowned for its love of extreme sports, Queenstown is the place to head for bungee jumping, skiing, sea kayaking and whitewater rafting. Due to an 80 million year stretch of geographic isolation, New Zealand has a distinct biodiversity and is home to many flightless birds. The majority of the population is of European descent but indigenous Maori culture is also strong and biculturalism is celebrated in modern day Kiwi life. 

Finding the right host is important. We help you choose who you stay with based on location, lifestyle, interests (and even diet or religion). Our aim is to help you find an English language partner so right for you that, through the learning experience, you might easily become friends.
