Media Summer Enrichment is well under a way with 12 students and multiple returning "alumni" stopping by to help out. This is what I always imagined the advanced media program at Ewa Makai would be like. Students learning from students. Former students coming back through their own decision to help share their knowledge and ensure that the media program here at Ewa Makai continues to grow stronger. #proudteachermoment My next goal, do a better job of recruiting through our feeder schools. Excitingly though, Ewa Makai will be adding a 6th grade wing in the 2019 - 2020 school year so I'll have an easier time picking up incoming 7th graders and might even have the chance to work with students for 3 school years if I can recruit some dedicated 6th graders. Below is some of the highlights from this year's MSE program so far...

Media @ EMMSTiger Media is the video production team of Ewa Makai Middle School. Our programs include an Exploratory program for students interested in learning more about video production and an Advanced program for students who would like to extend their learning into professional and real-world video production. About Mr. ToyotaWhen they say "professions run in the family," the saying holds true for my family and I. My mother, my aunty, and my grandmother were all teachers before me and I didn't ever think I'd be the one to take up the mantle. I've been teaching since 2008 and started at the age of 23 years old.
I'm a National Board Certified teacher with a Bachelor's in Secondary Education: Social Studies. Additionally, I have served in various roles ranging from an HSTA PD Trainer and Consultant, AVID Site Team Member, Club Advisory, Volleyball Coach, Event Organizer, and Chair for the CxK Media Cohort. Basic Teaching PhilosophyThere are constantly occurring learning opportunities. As a teacher, it is my duty to not only help students see these opportunities at face value, but to help them profit from these experiences.
I believe that learning is growing and that growing in the right direction is an important aspect of being successful. I can help the imperfect, I can hardly help those who are perfect. Although academics is an important part of a child's life, I understand that a child's life is even more important than school as an institution. Homework, tests, grades, and due dates pale in comparison to preparing a child for their future. I am but one person amongst a community of people that will come into a child's life, whether my role is small or large, my actions have lasting implications. I will always strive to make a difference, to help student's grow in the right direction, to develop their passions, and to prepare them for the struggles ahead. It is my duty, my honor, and my will as their teacher. - Ethan Toyota Archives
