Ko Leslie Maikuku tōku ingoa.

Kia Ora, I am a mama of three. An active, fun, bubbly person that loves a good laugh. I have always had a passion for my culture and our Reo Māori. I was raised returning to my homeland in Pipiwai often. It was there I learnt to be proud of who I am and where I am from. For me it's paramount that Te Reo maori survives, for the next generation and the preceding generations and I am willing to teach anyone that is willing to learn the native tongue of Aotearoa. Nau mai, whakatau mai.

About the lesson

WFusing my experience as a Kōhanga teacher, Marae student and a Kura Kaupapa avid supporter I have designed my classes to be relevant, interactive and a whole lot of kōrero. Te Reo Māori is such a fun language to learn with its own world attached. Nau mai, haere mai ki Aotearoa!

A typical 1 hour lesson with me includes starting traditionally with an opening karakia then moving into a mihi.
ALL LESSONS WILL FORMALLY OPEN AND FORMALLY CLOSE. there is no need to panic i will teach you how.

After all the formal stuff we will ease into learning with a Whakatauki of the week followed by sentence structures and kupu hou. Ending off with back and forth korero.

Please feel free to message me with any questions.

Perfect! Ka nui te mihi ki a koe e te kaiurungi o tēnei waka reo. He kaiako mākoha nui koe, ā, ahakoa he tangata koi, he ngākau tino māhaki. Nōku te whiwhi, i ruku hōhonu tāua ki ngā kōrero me ngā pūraku o wōku tūpuna, hīkaka ana te ngākau ki te hoe tonu i tēnei waka i raro i tō hautūtanga.
