taught in New Zealand

I had the absolute best time working with the team that was involved with my recent transition to New Zealand. They were helpful, patient and always encouraging. They have gone above and beyond to not only make sure that I get into a good school but also that my four agency processes were completed efficiently. Thank you ladies!

Tamsyn Arendse

At first I thought it was too good to be true. A whole company devoted to helping teachers find placements? It felt really natural speaking to my consultant. I could tell you guys make a real effort in trying to get the right educator in the right classroom, and I would definetly recommend them to anyone.
