About
Kamaʻilio means to converse and that’s exactly what we will do. Participating in the weekly live Zoom classes will help reinforce your learning and give you the needed practice speaking with a group of individuals who are all learning ‘ōlelo Hawai’i right along with you. Learning a new language is hard and it is sometimes hard to find people to practice with. Kumu Maile will give you the vocabulary and the practice to start using ‘ōlelo Hawai’i in normal activities like going to the grocery store, a day at the beach with friends, and getting ready in the morning to get out the door for the day. Together, we will explore ʻōlelo Hawaiʻi through interactive discussions, translations, and interactions. You must have basic ʻōlelo Hawaiʻi skills to join Kamaʻilio Cafe. The recommended pre-requisites for Kamaʻilio Cafe are completing any of these things: Papa Keiki level , Papa Makua level 1, or any course equivalent to completing ʻōlelo Hawaiʻi 101/ Beginning ʻōlelo. Includes: Registration for live virtual course Access to recorded classes for 6 months
