Bio

Robin’s love of languages and travel prompted the start of her teaching career in Paris in 1987, followed by work in England and Italy. On her return to NZ she started teaching at EIT, soon after the English Language Centre opened in 1994. In more recent years, Robin has taken time away from NZ to teach on shorter programmes in China and Thailand. She regards it a privilege to be involved with students from many different countries and a great opportunity to keep learning about the world and other cultures through this contact. A further opportunity to support international students comes through her role as International Student Mentor for the Faculty of Arts, Humanities and Trades. EIT is an IELTS Test Centre of which Robin is the Administrator. She is also an IELTS examiner.
