Welcome
Welcome to our ESOL English conversation classes! My name is Rob, and I am one of the pastors here at Mt Albert Baptist Church, and I have the privilege of interacting with all the wonderful students and staff!
We are delighted that you have made the big decision to make New Zealand home, and join us for our English conversation classes. Learning will be a big step in helping you adapt well to life in NZ and enjoy life here. So keep learning English and use it as much as you can. God bless you.

ESOL Classes
Our ESOL English Conversation Program offers beginner, intermediate, and advanced classes. We follow the New Zealand school terms — four terms a year, each lasting 9–10 weeks. Classes are held every Wednesday from 9:30 to 11:30 a.m., with free morning tea. Each term ends with a shared lunch. The cost is $20 per term. Students who attend 80% or more of the classes can request a certificate of study.
Term 4 started on Wednesday, October 8.
