Class sizes at Kūkahi Academic Center ✨ Our small class sizes allow us to provide personalized learning for each student. Students work one on one with teachers, individually, and in small groups. This allows students to build confidence and independence while also getting support, encouragement, and feedback on their work. Students also get to choose where they sit in the classroom, which helps build autonomy! Curious to learn more? We are just one email away! ➡️ [email protected] #educationcenter #kūkahiacademiccenter #hilohawaii #tutoring #homeschooling
