I’m a Hawaiian language (ʻŌlelo Hawaiʻi) tutor with 15+ years of teaching experience. I create customized lessons for all levels, from beginners to heritage learners, focusing on pronunciation, sentence structure, conversational fluency, and cultural understanding. My approach is supportive and student-centered, helping learners speak confidently while honoring the values and worldview embedded in the language. I look forward to sharing ʻōlelo Hawaiʻi with you in a meaningful way.Me as a Teacher
As a teacher, I’m patient, friendly, and encouraging. My goal is to help you feel confident and supported from the moment we begin. I focus on clear explanations, practical language you can use immediately, and a safe space to make mistakes and grow. I love teaching Hawaiian because each lesson is a chance to preserve culture, strengthen identity, and help you feel the true spirit of aloha in your learning journey. My lessons & teaching style
My lessons are relaxed, conversational, and culturally grounded. I use simple slides, worksheets, talk-story practice, and real-life examples so learning feels natural and fun. You’ll learn vocabulary, phrases, pronunciation, listening skills, and cultural context in every class. Whether you’re a total beginner or reconnecting to your roots, I tailor each lesson to your goals and pace. Expect warmth, patience, and a genuine aloha-filled learning experience.My teaching material
