The IEP's mascot boy

Aloha from Hilo, Hawaii!

It's a very nice day in Hilo.. but a little chill. If you are planning to travel Hawaii in winter time (December to February), it's better to bring some long sleeve shirts.

Here is the IEP's mascot boy, Bohdi. He comes along with his owner' Steven who is the IEP assistant coordinator.

Bohdi is not only the mascot but also he is a very good counselor for the IEP students. He is very friendly, and has a big heart. If you come to Hilo, please visit the IEP office! ^_^

Happy Valentine's Day!!

Aloha from Hilo, Hawaii!

Happy Valentine's Day, everybody! ^_^ Hawaii Community College IEP is going to have the Valentine's Lunch Party today. Steven, the IEP Assistant Coordinator, and I are ready to enjoy it!

I baked Chocolate Cheesecake for the party. It looks OK, hopefully the taste is also fine.... We will see. ^_^ Sherri, the IEP Coordinator, also baked her special brownie. Hummm.. I can hardly wait to taste it!

Conversation Lounge

Aloha from Hilo, Hawaii!


Once a week, Hawaii Community College Intensive English Program students attend the Conversation Lounge to practice speaking English. They enjoy talking about their hobbies, about their home country, and their life in Hilo. Last time I found they were playing Pokemon Monopoly! ^_^ Wow, I would love to join next time.

Application Workshop

Aloha from Hilo, Hawaii!

Yesterday, we at the Intensive English Program (IEP) welcomed the Student Support Specialist from Hawaii Community College for the Application Workshop. IEP students who plan to enroll Hawaii Community College attended the workshop and asked their questions face to face. The IEP and Hawaii Community College are very friendly, small programs that can follow up with students one by one, based on their goals.

We are looking forward to you joining us soon! ^_^

Aloha from the IEP 2009!

Last Saturday, the IEP students went to Waimea for the Cherry Blossom Festival. We really enjoyed the beautiful flowers and wonderful weather.

We hope you join us soon!! ^_^
