Strong results

Evakona students consistently perform better in tests than the general population. Our IELTS and TOEIC results are higher than the national average, and we adequately prepare students to exceed high school entry and immigration requirements.

Dynamic teaching. True learning.

At Evakona, our classrooms are never dull. Our teachers are enthusiastic, the classroom atmosphere vibrant and our class sizes small, so no one gets left behind. But it doesn’t stop there. We also take the teaching out of the classroom: into local recreational clubs, sport teams and community activities. So learning happens in real-life situations and through live interactions. As a result, our students improve faster, and retain the knowledge for a lifetime.

Effective transition to NZ schools and universities

Evakona founder, Eriko McLean, witnessed firsthand how difficult it can be for overseas students to cross over to New Zealand schools and universities while she was teaching at the local high school in Whitianga. Today, Evakona has built solid relationships with several New Zealand schools and universities, enabling students to earn credits towards their chosen schools while supporting them to thrive in school and in life. We also introduce parents and students to local schools. Contact us for more information.
