Spring has Arrived

Spring is here! The warm weather makes it perfect for hiking or relaxing on the beach.

In addition to improving their English skills through our language classes here at the Maui Language Institute, our students also have the opportunity to learn about the Hawaiian culture through our Hawaiian studies class. We also have a couple of new classes this session. One of these classes is our creative and performing arts class. Students are learning how to do things like writing and reading their own poetry. Writing poetry is a great tool for improving your English because you must use creative and colorful language to do so.

We also have a class that helps you prepare for the TOEIC (Test of English for International Communication). This class goes over important grammar points, helps you to identify common mistakes in grammar, and goes over practice tests.

We come to yet another installment of Pidgin 101! Let's keep today's lesson simple and sweet. The word I would like to talk about today is garans.

Garans - Guarantee, for sure, definitely
