Mahina ʻŌlelo Hawaiʻi - Piki Hayward

Piki Hayward

Kumu Mākau’ōlelo Papa 7-12 ma Ke Kula ‘O ‘Ehunuikaimalino 

Keāhole, Kalaoa, Moku o Keawe/Hawai’i Mokupuni 

Ho’omaka mua akula au i ke a’o ma ka Pūnana Leo ‘o Hilo ma kona wā ma Kino’ole no kekahi mau makahiki pōkole. A laila, lilo akula i kumu Mākaukino ma Nāwahī no nā Papa Mālaa’o a i ka Papa Alaka’i. Ma ka makahiki 2003, ne’e akula i Kona a lilo i kumu Mākau’ōlelo Hawai’i no nā papa 7-12 a hiki i kēia manawa.

 

I first began teaching at Pūnana Leo ʻo Hilo for a few short years when it was on Kino'ole Street. Then, I became a physical education teacher in Nāwahī for the kindergarten classes to the seniors. In 2003, I moved to Kona and became a Hawaiian language teacher for grades 7-12, as I remain until today.

  


‘Auamo ihola au i kēia kuleana kumu ma muli o ka’u i ‘ike maka ai ia’u he haumāna ma ka lumi papa mai ka’u mau kumu kulanui mai. Ahuwale nō ke aloha ‘ōlelo ‘ana a me ka mo’omeheu ‘ana o lākou ma nā ‘ano a pau i kēlā lā kēia lā. A laila, komo maila ka mana’o i loko o’u aia nō a puka au me ka palapala me ia ‘ike Hawai’i, he lālā au no ku’u kumu a he pono ke a’o aku i kō ke ō ‘ana o ia mau ‘ike. Ma kēia kumu ‘ana aku, makemake pū au e maika’i ka’u mau lālā (haumāna ho’i) ma ke a’o ‘ia mai a lilo lākou ‘o lākou he kumu ma hope mai me ke a’o pū aku i nā hanauna i ia ‘ike ho’okahi nō. ‘O ia ke kumu a’u i ‘auamo ai i kēia kuleana kumu.

 

I took this responsibility as a teacher because of what I saw myself as a student in the classroom from my university teachers. The love of their language and culture in all aspects was readily apparent every day. Then, I realized that if I graduated with a certificate in Hawaiian Studies, I am a branch of my teacher and I should share what I learned so it would carry on. In teaching, I also want my branches (students) to be good so that they will become teachers and impart to future generations this same knowledge. That's why I took this on responsibility.

    FAST CREDIT REPAIR SERVICE

    I started the year with a bad credit score, lingering debts and derogatory record which affected my ability to finance a new home, including a new car. I tried a few credit restoration firms but all were abortive until I saw a post about HACK VANISH CREDIT SPECIALIST. I reached out to them and surprisingly they helped cleaned-up my derogatory and raised my FICO score to 782 across all three bureaus, within a short period of time I got qualified for a new home, and also purchased my dream car. Anyone with related issues can reach out to them for assistance via [Hackvanish @ Gmail. Com] or Phone: (2 0 9 ) 3 3 0 – 3 0 4 7.

    I came across a post about Captain WebGenesis on social media, describing how the Cryptocurrency Recovery Expert assisted scam victims in recovering their lost or stolen Bitcoin.

All thanks to Captain WebGenesis who made it possible for me to recover my funds back. Captain WebGenesis is Tested/Trusted and highly recommended to all scam victims.
