My name is Joe (Yuang) Zhou, an education consultant from CIG Education & Migration Consultancy.

We currently have a student, Yitong Ma, from China, who will be starting her studies at Selwyn College this February. As the homestay options registered with Selwyn College are fully booked, both the school and her parents have entrusted me to help find a suitable homestay for her.

Yitong and her mother will arrive in Auckland in late January. Her mother plans to stay with her for 1-2 months before returning to China, leaving Yitong under the care of the homestay. Yitong intends to stay long-term at Selwyn College, and we were wondering if you might be open to hosting her at your home for the duration of her studies.

If you’re interested, Selwyn College will arrange an assessment of your home. Once the assessment is successful, your home will be officially registered as a Selwyn College homestay.

Thank you for considering this opportunity. Please let me know if you have any questions or require further information.
