Testimonials
Testimonial from Te Reo student in 2022: I have found Level One and now, Level Two, Te Reo Maori with our tutor, Kingi, to be a life-changing experience. After years of awkwardness and embarrassment, I can now attempt to join in when there is a Karakia or someone greets or farewells me. I see Maori written around our city and can try to pronounce it without reinventing it! Kingi is humble, highly sensitive, and manages to gently lead us forward as a group. There is laughter, warmth and respect as we experience manakitanga and learn from his cultural practice. I wish I had grown up experiencing this kind of holistic teaching. Selwyn has a gem in this tutor. I am also impressed with how Kingi manages the provided texts, which are in need of some sensitive corrections. He negotiates errors swiftly and without criticism which I find very gracious. As a past visiting lecturer, (not Maori by ethnicity) in Maori Art for the Auckland Teachers College many years ago, Kingi represents hope for to me. Thank you to Selwyn for making his skills available. I will be back for more.
