This is a Tongan class that is taken at TCSC for tongan students from the ages 5-18+ this class is taught by Sisi Satini a student at BYU Hawaii, but has recently came to TCSC to do her intern. And one of her intern was to teach the kids that are not only tongan ethnic but other race as well how to talk in tongan in the proper way. This is a 8week class and is taught every wednesday and thursday from 3 to 4:30 or 5 the latest.
My favorite thing about this class is embarssing ourself in front of those student that speaks tongan on a daily basis but it all good, that the whole purpose of this class is to learn right! Also another one of my favorite thing about this class is long the tonga proverbs. Why? because it has so many meaning and different ways to say just a one word. Such as toko, that can mean a stick or a brother or sister or maybe a cane. You see how one word can mean so many things.
I also enjoyed meeting new people that comes everyday to join our class, we got to learn a lil bit about everything about each other. I love our teachers Sisi Satini and Lupe Fifita, they are two beautiful and humble young ladys!!
