stimulating. I especially appreciate the clarity of the speakers. I am hearing impaired but I have no problems understanding the spoken words. The speakers are very articulate in their enunciation of each word.” -Niuolahiki Self-directed Student

program was nice since I live In Tennessee and I can still take this Hawaiian course. Mahalo for the wonderful experience.” -Niuolahiki Teacher-directed Student

an excellent way for beginning students to learn Hawaiian because the underlying structure of the language is clearly explained.

enhanced my learning so much!” -Niuolahiki Teacher-directed Student
