Kia ora my name is Zoe Copsey and I have been working with migrants and refugees teaching English for 25 years. I am also a speech and drama teacher and a drama and dance therapist. I believe to be able to settle well in Aotearoa you need to be able to communicate well. Many people have excellent written English but still find it hard to be understood. Practising speaking and conversation is so important, Kiwis speak very fast and use a lot of idioms that don't make sense and that's why I love teaching conversational English.  Come and join my class and have some fun.
