Dear Sharon and Julia

I've only been back in Shanghai for three days and I miss you all. I stayed in Christchurch with my son for a month, and watched him start his high school life as an overseas student. During this period, I also introduced my friends to visit the school. I firmly believe that it is the right choice to send my child to school with you. I must express my gratitude in my mother language!

I was deeply impressed with the enthusiasm and efficiency of KIWI PATHWAYS. Thanks for your professional ecommendation and your recommendation of children's characteristics, you chose the most suitable school for our children. With your help, we communicated seamlessly with theschool authorities, saved parents' energy and time to the greatest extent, and also thanks for helping us apply for our favourite school as soon as possible. After the child enters the school, they are quite satisfied with everything.

It is touching that you have not only introduced the school to the children, but also provided the help for henceforth development. On the day of arrival, you helped us to apply for phone cards, introduce bank and medical services, as well as introduce scenic routes and various sports coaches we need, and even introduce advanced guidance for children's future development. All this makes us feel so lucky to be with you. So I don't worry about my son's condition at all when I go back to Shanghai. I believe he will be very happy with your support.

My friends also asked me to convey their family's thanks to Sharon and Julia! They only stayed for a week, but they felt the same way. With your help, they visited the schools and assured their daughter to go to secondary school alone. They have decided to invite Sharon to be her guardiarn during her study in Christchurch.

After coming back I met a lot of friends, constantly sharing my experience in Christchurch. It would be my pleasure to introduce them to the two professional ladies at KIWI PATHWAYS. if their children want to study abroad, children want to study abroad, I will be the first to recommend you!

Wish you good health and success in your career!

Kiwi Pathways is a trustworthy agent for studying abroad in Christchurch. We met them four years ago and were attracted by Sharon's serious and responsible attitude. They're the best agent and keep very good co-operation relationships with local schools. When we met troubles for enrolment, they showed us strong communication skill and helped us to fix it.

Now, my daughter has graduated. She likes her high school life at St. Andrews College very much. During these four years, Sharon has been always providing great support to meet various requirements or needs from us, either for academic or fitting in a new learning environment. I am a careless mum, I often forget to check school emails as well as my daughter’s study results. Every time I will have a remindring message or call from Sharon. If it is required, she will not hesitate to accompany me to see the teacher.

Sharon is just like the parent of children who observe and rejoice them in their growth. We're happy with our right decision of choosing 'Kiwi Pathways' four years ago. I would appreciate Sharon and would say 'Kiwi Pathways' is deserved.

Reference #3

My name is Judi and I live in Shanghai. My son Changchang came to Christchurch, New Zealand to study in July 2019 when he was less than 15 years old. He has successfully completed his high school studies in three and a half years. Hehas not only achieved excellent results at St Andrew's college, but also made good progress in all aspects. All this is especially thanks to Ms. Sharon and Ms. Julia from Kiwi Pathways for their help. As a mother, I would like to express my sincere gratitude to them for their selfless love and professional service during the extraordinary three and a half years.

Ms. Sharon is my children's local guardian, and she is a very warm and capable woman. For three and a half years, she gave full support. At the beginning, she helped us to contact the matching school and made a suitable choice according to our needs and characteristics. It was inevitable that the child could not adapt to the new country, so she would often communicate with the child and contact the parents of homestay to help the child adapt to the new country as soon as possible. She both cared about the child's development and respected his personality. My son got along well with her and developed a deep bond with her.

Due to covid 19, the child did not go home for three years. homestay was changed several times, and each change was properly arranged. Sharon was the guardian at the school's regular home and school mail, the regular parents' meeting, the annual meeting and the graduation ceremony. She will send us regular emails as situation reports, and she must be the staunch supporter when there are important events. She is cheerful and optimistic, and her flexible and firm way of dealing with problems also provides a good guide for Chang Chang's personality development.

Ms. Julia comes from Shanghai and has lived in Japan for many years. She has accompanied her son to study in Christchurch and accompanied many Chinese children to grow up. For us, the barrier of language communication does not exist at all. With her support and help, Chang Chang learned golf, which left him a lifelong hobby in his study abroad life. He also made many overseas students friends, developed friendship and felt the warmth of home.

All in all, I would like to thank the two ladies from Kiwi Pathways for their support and help in the past three and a half years. I want to tell every parent that giving your children to them must be a choice that can reassure you and make your children feel comfortable because they are so careful to protect the growth of your children!
