YOUR KUMU
David Del Rocco
A lifelong student and speaker of ʻōlelo Hawaiʻi, Kumu David began his language journey at the University of Hawaiʻi at Mānoa in 1988, earning his Bachelor's degree in Hawaiian in 2006.
He has brought the Hawaiian language to life by translating thirteen children's books for the DOE, along with several others for local publishers. His translation of The Shark Man of Hāna was honored with Ka Palapala Poʻokela — the Award for Excellence in Children's Hawaiian Culture — in 2005.
Over the years, Kumu David has taught private students, spent a year at Punahou, led online classes for seniors through the OSHER program, and taught at Hawaiʻi Pacific University on base at Pearl Harbor. He brings warmth, depth, and a true love of sharing this living language.
