Have you ever been to the 50th state in the US?  Hawaii is a beautiful place, and somewhere many people only dream of visiting.  In this class, you will learn all about Hawaii, but without all that touristy stuff.  You will learn about the REAL Hawaii from a REAL Islander!  

🌴I was born in Hawaii and lived there my entire life.  My family is currently experiencing our first adventure living outside of Hawaii.  We moved to North Idaho this Spring.  I am excited to share with others, the unique and ethnically diverse place that I know as home. . . the only Island state in the U.S., Hawaii.

🏄‍♂️The Hawaii that most visitors experience is a bit different than the Island Life and Culture that Hawaii residents, or kama'aina, know.  

🏝This will serve as a crash course about the 50th state of the US, as explained by a person born and raised in the islands. In this class, I will be teaching students a bit about the Hawaiian language and how to successfully read those Hawaiian words!  I will also teach students about what it is like growing up in Hawaii, about the food, the customs, the celebrations, and some of its history.  

🌺At the end of this class, students will also have an opportunity to ask questions or share their own experiences with Hawaii.
