I want to go to a language school in New Zealand first. Please recommend a regular language school with good reputation and education quality. Thank you!

There are not many public language schools in New Zealand. Only the language schools affiliated to universities are public, such as ELA in Australasia and international house in AUT. You can check the tuition fees on the websites of Aoda and AUT. You can find the contact information of the school on the school website and apply directly. Apart from the language schools affiliated to public universities, some private language schools are also quite good, such as ACG's language school.

regarding visas, if you don't want to find an intermediary, you can do DIY. First of all, you should choose a language school and a future college or university, and then write a study plan that roughly describes your plan. Of course, you don't have to go to school according to the calculations in the plan. For example, if you plan to go to Austria University, but you think AUT is more suitable for you when you arrive in New Zealand, you can also go to AUT. After preparing the study plan, you should apply for an offer of place from language schools and institutions on the plan, and you can apply for a visa after you get the offer. You can find more detailed process by searching online. If you can't find it, you can also directly ask the staff of the language school you want to apply for how to apply for a visa. I believe they will be very happy to help you.

If you pay the tuition fee, you will transfer it to the school account through bank transfer. There will definitely be a school account and payment amount on the school's offer. Fouundation means preparatory course, not fund.

PS: I don't agree with my friend upstairs. If you want a language environment, you just need to communicate with classmates and host families in other countries. If you think there are too many students in China, you can go to Hamilton or Wellington, where there are far fewer homecoming in China. The way of training IELTS in New Zealand is different from the way of training IELTS in China. New Zealand is to improve your English ability and then let you pass IELTS with hard power. Training IELTS in China will teach you all kinds of skills, and you will pass IELTS opportunistically. Many students with IELTS score 7 in China come to the university class and can't understand a word. In addition, there is an old saying in China that birds of a feather flock together. If you only go to school in a down-to-earth way, don't show off your wealth, don't compare with others, and don't go to bars and dance halls and other messy places, the garbage studying abroad won't find you.
