Auckland, New Zealand's largest city, is known as the 'City of Sails' for its setting between two harbours, the Sky Tower, its volcanic cones and sailing culture. Multicultural, with beaches and nature close by, it is a favourite with those who want to learn English in a safe, enjoyable setting.
Ask NGGlobal's advisers about the current language school options in Auckland. Language schools in Auckland, high school programs at schools such as Macleans College and art and design programs at institutions such as Whitecliffe are among the options.
How long you study depends on your goal: 2-4 weeks for a short summer course, 3-6 months for fluent communication and usually 6-12 months for a university pathway. Programs that require a student visa are usually long-term.
Fees vary from school to school, and university-based language programs and private language schools can sit in different price ranges. Planning your course, accommodation and airport transfer together lowers the total cost. Ask NGGlobal for a quote with current prices and discounts.
New Zealand's academic year starts in February, so if you are planning university or college preparation, time your language program accordingly. For short courses, booking 4-6 weeks ahead is usually enough.
Your visa type depends on the length of your course: a visitor visa for up to 3 months and a student visa for longer programs. Rules change from time to time, so check current conditions with Immigration New Zealand; NGGlobal helps you prepare your documents.
Working on a visitor visa is prohibited. Student visa holders can work part-time within weekly hour limits under certain conditions, for example when enrolled on an English program of at least 14 weeks at an approved provider; check current conditions.
Homestay is the most common option in Auckland, and student residences and shared flats are also available. Rent is high, so we recommend arranging accommodation together with your course.
Auckland is New Zealand's most expensive city, with rent the largest part of the budget. Homestays and student discounts help balance costs.
Auckland's buses, suburban trains and ferries are used with an AT HOP card, and ferries run from the city centre to places such as Waiheke and Devonport.
Auckland has a mild, humid oceanic climate: summers (December to February) are warm and sunny, winters (June to August) gentle and wet. Being in the southern hemisphere, its seasons are the reverse of Turkey's.
Auckland Airport (AKL) is reached from Turkey with connecting flights via Asia or the Gulf, usually taking 20-25 hours in total. The SkyDrive express bus reaches the city centre from the airport in about 40-60 minutes.
Auckland is about 10-11 hours ahead of Turkey: 11 hours during New Zealand daylight saving time (late September to early April) and 10 hours in the New Zealand winter. When it is 09:00 in Turkey, it is usually 19:00 or 20:00 in Auckland.
