I had a very positive experience working with Kris. She was approachable, professional, and clearly knowledgeable in her field. I appreciated her clear communication and the way she followed up consistently and in alignment with what she said she would do. Her reliability and thoughtful approach made the recruitment process smooth and reassuring.

Karen (Teacher) | May 2025

I was searching for teaching opportunities in New Zealand with no success. Then I discovered Prospero! Georgia has truly been incredible in securing my full-time teaching position in beautiful New Zealand! It was so easy for me!

Matthew (Australia) | Apr 2024

Everything went well! Both Emily and Ashley were clear on the expectations and were welcoming to my situation on wanting to work around whānau and got back to me via email quite quickly.

Marchelle (Auckland) | Feb 2024

Working with Billie was an absolute game-changer for us. Without hesitation, I urge anyone seeking a fulfilling career move in education to trust in Billie's expertise

Kyle (South Africa) | Jun 2024

Again Kris has found us the right person. I was hesitant due to staffing constraints but interviewed the candidate and like Kris said 'he is a good candidate'

Dairne (Client) | May 2025

With the Prospero team, I’ve experienced sincerity, care, and prompt support for their relief staff. In short, they truly value their relievers.

Sabina (ECE Reliever) | May 2025

It was very smooth and easy communicating with Neil on several occasions. I have recommended a lot of my friends to contact Prospero.

Shavneel (Client) | Jan 2024

Kristina is so easy to work with and knows the system inside and out. She has been incredibly supportive of our new teachers.

Sarah (Client) | Apr 2025

Billie was extremely helpful through every part of the process and I would highly recommend Prospero Teaching.

Simone (Teacher) | Dec 2024

Two jobs - two amazing candidates.

Superb support from Billie.
