About Vaaimamao
Talofa lava and greetings to you all. My name is Vaaimamao (Mao) Mauga. I am a teacher and have been teaching for 5 years now. My experience in the diaspora Samoan community in Aotearoa has equipped me with the tools and necessities to be able to teach the Samoan language to students from all walks of life, ages ranging from 5 years old to 73 years old. I have been a Samoan Beginners Language course facilitator since 2022 and still going. Adding to that I am currently a Samoan bilingual faiaoga at the intermediate school where I currently teach. It is such a joy to see students from all walks of life achieve and exceed their goals. In 2025, I am excited to announce that I will be introducing an extended version of the Samoan beginners language course via online. It will be a great challenge for me to reach potential students in the broader community of Aotearoa and encourage the use of the gagana Samoa and understanding of the culture in everyday life. Looking forward to meeting you. Fa'afetai lava :)
