ExcelL: Excellence in Experiential Learning and Leadership

ExcelL, or Excellence in Experiential Learning and Leadership, helps international and immigrant students be successful in their host culture. As international and migrant students, you may have sometimes found it difficult to talk to your Kiwi classmates or lecturers. You may have experienced misunderstanding even though you thought you made yourself clear. You may have also felt frustrated because you didn't know how to say 'no' to someone. If any of this experience applies, you may find ExcelL extremely useful.

Students say:

"I was really confident afterwards."

"It gave me a lot of new friends and enthusiasm for conversation with new people."

"After I studied this course I don't feel nervous, I feel happy. I got the skills to talk to people."

"It's fun, interesting and practical."

"I wish I can participate in this programme when I first came to New Zealand. It is very useful for new international students."
