About NZSL4U
Nau Mai, Haere Mai
NZSL4U is here to empower kiwis to embrace one of our two official languages, Te Reo Rotarota (New Zealand Sign Language).
We have created interactive, engaging, and customized NZSL courses, available both online and in-person, to give New Zealanders better access to learning this beautiful language.
Why?
We want our Deaf and hard of hearing community to feel more included in society and be able to communicate fully with their peers.
Are you ready to be part of the kaupapa?

We now offer Afterpay as a payment option for our Online Courses, In Person Courses, and Camps. When you go through the usual registration process, you can choose to pay with Afterpay. We will then email you a link to set up your Afterpay payments. Once you have set up these payments we will be able to approve your registration.

I just wanted to message to say that I have always struggled with languages but NZSL is so different. Thank you so much for being such a fun teacher!

Highly recommend NZSL4U night classes! I honestly leave each session feeling like I could communicate without opening my mouth for the rest of my life.
