Unlike other courses taught at Wānanga, Reo Ora focuses specifically on learning to speak Māori (kōrero Māori) without having to learn "Tikanga" (customs, marae protocol) or how to say a "Pepeha" (formal introduction describing your tribal origins). Instead, we focus on teaching sentence structure, increasing your vocabulary, and providing useful phrases that you can use every day.
