Hobbies
Aloha! My name is Michael and I was born and raised in Hawaii. Originally went to Mililani for schooling, graduated from UH Manoa with a degree in Secondary Education, and now living in town. In my free time I like to be active, whether it's pumping iron at the gym or busting a move in...well...anywhere with good music! I enjoy dance so much and I am more than willing to teach students as well! I enjoy exploring new places via hiking. There is just too many outdoor experiences in Hawaii to pass up! When I am not active, I enjoy browsing the internet, mostly watching videos. Sometimes I will get into K-drama phases (something about that genre that really touches you). I also like to spend time with friends and family whenever I have time. I am great with kids! Very patient and understanding when it comes to problems. I encourage students to try their best and to never give up. They tend to gain more confidence and a sense of accomplishment after interacting with me. Do not hesitate to contact me! Mahalo for reading! :)
