Te Ahu o Te Reo Māori

 Level 3

In 2022 I reignited my Te Reo Māori learning journey by starting Te Reo Māori classes through the Te Ahu o Te Reo Māori o Ngāi Tahu classes.  In Terms one and two, I did Level one which was online.  I continued in the second semester doing Level 2.  

In 2023, I am doing the Level 3 course which is certainly up a few notches for me.  My goal this year is to be competent at Level 3, even if I have to repeat the classes in the second semester which is quite likely as I don't feel confident enough to be doing Level 4.  We'll see how it goes though.  

This semester I have actually started doing the mahi kāika that has been set and doing some study through the weekly kupu lists on Quizlet.  I aim to use Quizlet every day to build my vocabulary and so far, I have reached a seven-day streak.  

I was happy to be in the top three for our in-class Quizlet.

Quizlet has a matching activity in it that times you and ranks you against other learners.  This has been a great tool for my learning and challenging myself to get a quicker time.
