Learn English in Wellington, New Zealand

This city, founded in 1840, enjoys an exceptional location on the majestic and well sheltered bay of Port Nicholson. At the antipodes of Madrid, Wellington’s climate is pleasant and temperate. In a country where nature and the sea reign, the lifestyle is resolutely outdoors: jogging, rugby, sailing and hiking are integral to the lifestyle, and the national athletes, particularly the famous All Blacks and the sailors, are regarded as heroes. Its role as the cultural and artistic capital, and its intense commercial and port trading – as much with the South Island as with Australia and the rest of the world – make Wellington a dynamic, cosmopolitan and festive city where its decidedly a great place to live.
