Our history
We started as the European Language Academy (ELA), founded in Auckland in 2000. This was a boutique European language school, geared to the teaching of the most popular European languages. ELA was then joined by the Asian Language Academy (ALA), founded in 2006 as a complementary Asian language school.
ELA and ALA were not just language schools: the two Academies also offered a range of services to businesses and to schools; ELA operated a Cross Cultural consultancy that specialised in helping companies and individuals deal with the multi-cultural environment in which many of them operated. We are a leading pioneer in New Zealand in the area of cross-cultural training. In July 2007, Euroasia was recognised by National Business Review as the 3rd most exciting company within the New Zealand education sector.
As the company expanded, we decided to create an umbrella name to cover all the services we provide. The name we chose was Euroasia - to reflect the world we wish to open up to New Zealanders.
Euroasia has its head office in Auckland, its second office in Christchurch. For more information, please see Locations.
Our group language classes are offered in Auckland and Christchurch (and in Wellington through a partner), but our other services are offered across New Zealand.
