This course is designed specifically for educators in mind as all learning is themed around the classroom and school settings and encourages you to learn alongside your ākonga (students) and implement the courses teaching in your daily practice.
 

The Māori language is undergoing a real renaissance in Aotearoa/New Zealand. Where once the goal was for the language to survive, today it’s about helping it thrive and grow stronger into the future.
