From Hawaii with Aloha

You are here: Home / Blog / From Hawaii with Aloha

FullSizeRenderHello! My name is Kevin Kobayashi and I recently moved to Japan. I am from Honolulu, Hawaii. Now I’m living in the Kawanishi area. I love living and working in the Kansai area. There are so many things to do. There are many great places to eat and so many wonderful spots to visit.

Back in Hawaii I worked as a Audio and Visual Technician, setting up for concerts and many events held in Hawaii. Now I enjoy doing freelance graphic design and illustration in addition to coaching English conversation. My hobbies are drawing and painting which I continue to do here in Japan.

For the last several months I have been privileged to work at the Smith’s School of English in Kawanishi. I am having a great time coaching the many students of English that attend our English school. Seeing the happy faces of my English students inspires me to continue to bring out the very best in each person I meet. I look forward to meeting even more English students in the future.

Kevin
