The major emphases are to develop each student s oral skills and competency in te Reo Māori. To be able to think, to speak, to question, to reason, to answer confidently in Māori and to sustain the oral delivery of prepared seminars exclusively in te Reo Māori for up to an hour, followed by questions, answers and discussion. This course is also an essential preparation for those students who are aiming to participate confidently in Tikanga Māori and Kawa Māori protocols on their marae and on formal, cultural, hapu, iwi occasions.
