I know this is a question for an American forum ? but how do you say "88 keys, weighted" electronic piano in Japan ? I would like to buy one from Costco in Japan if possible. I live in the U.S., but this is a gift for a family member in Japan as a celebration.
I understand 88 keys, but is "weighted" the piano touch in Japan? I would like to buy a piano that I can use for a while, so that I don't have to buy a new electronic piano when I start taking piano lessons.
Thank you very much.This text has been translated by auto-translation. There may be a slight difference between the original text and the translation. (Original Language: 日本語)

Hello.
I am currently using a Roland FRP sold at Costco.
I also play classical piano, so I think I can help you.
First of all, there are many types of electronic pianos.
Weighted means that the keys are weighted like a real piano. This is for people who want to learn piano seriously like a classical piano.
However, the weighted keys may be tiring at first. That being said, the best thing about the weighted electronic piano is that with practice you can express delicate sounds.
So if you want to focus on "playing" the piano, I would recommend weighted.
I don't know much about piano touch, but I think it is the ability to change the volume of the sound depending on how hard you press the keys.
If you are just starting to make music, you don't really need the weighted feature. Instead, we recommend a "keyboard" that can produce sounds from a variety of sources and instruments.
It does not have the weight of an electronic piano, but it specializes in "inserting sounds into a music application," which is essential for music creation. It can produce not only piano sounds, but also drums, guitars, and almost any instrument sound you can think of, and you can put them into applications such as a computer to make music.
However, as I mentioned earlier, it doesn't have the "weight" of a real piano, so it is not suitable for practice.
Most electronic pianos fall into these two categories.
If you want to learn to play the piano, we recommend this electronic piano.
https://www.costco.com/roland-frp-2-acr-digital-piano-bundle.product.4000186636.html
I use it and it has a lot of accessories.
I recommend this keyboard for people who want to make music on a computer or other devices.
https://www.costco.com/casio-ct-x700-premium-portable-keyboard-bundle.product.100779619.html
It has 61 keys, but it has 600 instruments and sound sources. It has 61 keys, but it has 600 instruments and sound sources.

Super Kokosei, a volunteer group of high school students, is looking for new volunteers.
One more step is a high school based program to help children who are trying their best to make a new life in America.
We have two programs: a read aloud program to help the children get used to speaking English, and a homework help program to help them do their homework in Japanese.
The children who become our students range in age from middle school elementary school students to junior high school students, and their English levels vary. High school students who are fluent in Japanese can volunteer in the Homework Help Program, while high school students who are fluent in English can volunteer in the Read Aloud Program, whichever suits their style.
By continuing with weekly 30-minute sessions once a week for each week, service hours can also be easily accomplished to reach your goals.
You can also develop leadership skills while volunteering.
If you are interested, please register as a volunteer on our website. We will arrange an information session for you.

Which private school or tutor did you use?

I have lived in Hawaii for over 10 years and now have only one friend. She is not Japanese, cute, very sociable and has many friends, and I only see her once or twice a year. I don't feel lonely because I have a husband and a child, but sometimes I feel lonely. I don't have many friends in Japan, and if I lived somewhere other than Hawaii, I might have lost touch with them.
I don't have many friends, so is it likely that I have a personality problem and say hurtful things to others without knowing it ??This text has been translated by auto-translation. There may be a slight difference between the original text and the translation. (Original Language: 日本語)

I don't have any friends in Hawaii either. When my children were small, I had a lot of mom friends, but they were just mom friends, and once they started kinder, I stopped socializing with them. I also made friends at the Japanese language supplementary school, but I found the Japanese community to be a very difficult and troublesome place to be. They were mean to me, talked behind my back, invited me out for lunch once in a while ?, and when I was happy to go out with them, they were actually soliciting me for insurance or selling Fat Dan cosmetics. I don't know where they came from or why they live in Hawaii, because Hawaii is a place where people's identities are unknown.
I had a fight with my husband the other day and left home unexpectedly, but I laughed at myself because I had no friends and nowhere to go. I didn't know any restaurants that a middle-aged woman could go to alone, and I was afraid to walk outside alone after dark, so I went home before it got dark. Still, I don't really want to have friends in Hawaii.
I am serious, methodical, responsible, caring, and easily hurt, so making friends with people I don't know well that I meet in Hawaii is mildly stressful for me. I try to keep my relationships with people in Hawaii as shallow as possible and avoid deep relationships because I don't want to trust them as friends and then be betrayed and hurt again.This text has been translated by auto-translation.

Thank you for your personal and sympathetic email and further comments !
Off topic, but today I saw a family living in Hawaii that I think is quite famous on YouTube. The Japanese wife was sparkling, and I was a little despairing because she looked like heaven and earth to me. I imagined that they were probably going to have an early dinner at a restaurant after that and watch the lantern floating ceremony. But I think he is quite a hard worker...he is always a wonderful person with his YouTube dinner menus.This text has been translated by auto-translation.

I am a woman living in Hawaii.
US will have a huge gap between rich and poor, not just in Hawaii.
If you are a homeowner, you can exchange information about properties, but if you talk to renters
who are not, they will be turned off.
Whether single, married, or divorced.
I was also solicited by more than 10 different religions and network businesses.
I've been in Hawaii long enough to take it as a plus and wonder
what kind of invitation I'll get next time ! I'm trying to think of new discoveries. I can't
buy network business products unless someone introduces me to them. There are so many excellent products that I've come to believe that I don't have to be interested in the business to just be a loyal customer. With people who don't have cars, it's a burden to have to drop them off and pick them up for lunch or tea. I think it would make a better impression on everyone if you could take an Uber or Taxi yourself. Saving money is important, but I think it is also important to invest in yourself. If you ask someone to pick you up and drop you off, thank them. You will have a longer lasting relationship with people who have common sense.
If I could meet like-minded people, we could be friends. I think it is a good idea.
Unlike in Japan, everyone's status〔Temporal or Permanent(Permanent)》is different, and for the sake of future relationships
Everyone is used to asking each other about status when they first meet each other.This text has been translated by auto-translation. There may be a slight difference between the original text and the translation. (Original Language: 日本語)

I have been involved with others, but I am not in contact with them now. I will not contact them in the future.
I don't like the Japanese community in Waikiki, so I don't go near them at all, and
I live mostly in English.

I saw a topic about Montessori Community School (MCS), but not Pre-School
I would like to ask about the schooling after graduation from Elementary.
Please let me know if you know anything about this or if you have children in the school.
The MCS website publishes the number of graduates who go on to higher education and the number of accepted students for the schools they have applied to
In some years there are only 5 graduates for 2021 ( 4 of them went to Punahou 1 to Iolani ! )
. The last two years also seem to have only 9 or 11 students, but does MCS Elementary only have about 10 students per grade level?
My daughter turned 4 last December and is currently in another preschool, but I am hoping she can go to Punahou or Iolani from about middle school
I am sending her to a private school as soon as she turns 3, but the teacher at the school has asked me if I can go to Punahou or Iolani.
I took the entrance exams for both schools earlier this year and was unsuccessful.
I plan to take the test again at Kinder, but MCS seems to be very competitive for admission from Kinder as well .........
If anyone knows if Elementary only has about 10 students, etc., please let me know!This text has been translated by auto-translation. There may be a slight difference between the original text and the translation. (Original Language: 日本語)

Thanks for your comment. Sorry for the delay !
No, I'm just an ordinary girl. I have never been to Takahashi Juku.
However, she plays outside a lot and her concentration was
high even before she entered preschool.
She liked puzzles and blocks since she was about 2 years old, and she never stopped doing puzzles
until they were completed.
I also raised him from birth with an emphasis on Japanese rather than English.
I learned this from a doctor at the hospital, who told me that a completely bilingual brain affects academic performance, and that if I wanted to raise my child in the U.S., I should immerse him in Japanese until he was 3 years old and raise him 100% in Japanese.
Now I can completely translate from Japanese to English because of that. I heard that the brain moves naturally. I was told before the birth that this would deeply affect my academic ability and judgment, so I was very thorough.
Other than that, he is just a normal kid who plays outside a lot. lol

It's been a long time since my children graduated, so I don't know if this applies to your situation now, but just an FYI !
I had two children graduate from Hanahauoli to Punahou, Mainland college. My daughter started at Pre-K first and my son attended Public for a year before moving to Hanahauoli, where we still have a great relationship with very good teachers and a wonderful family atmosphere. I had my son take the PUNAHOU exam in Kinder, but they recommended that he take the 4th grade exam because his English vocabulary was less than that of native English speaking children, but we both started at PUNAHOU in 7th grade. They say that bilingual children learn the language of their parents faster, especially if they spend a lot of time together. In our case, since I was speaking Japanese, I think my Japanese was stronger than my English because I spoke a lot of Japanese when I was little. But after attending the school, my English naturally became stronger. I know it is a tough time for parents who are going through the schooling process, but please enjoy the time you spend together now ~.This text has been translated by auto-translation.

#22 Mr. M
Thank you for your valuable experience !
I knew that once you start going to school, English would naturally become your main language. I was a little worried even though the doctor at the hospital said so,
but just by attending ( St. Clements for the past year ) from the age of 3, my English has improved a lot.
My husband is English only, so even though I raised him in Japanese,
the environment to learn English is more than Japanese families, and even now he is about 70% Japanese and 30% English, and he is good at Japanese. lol
Without knowing it, HANAHAUOLI, Montessori Community School
I was surprised that I could pass the entrance exam for HANAHAUOLI, Montessori Community School without even knowing it.I think the English environment will become stronger and stronger, but I have no regrets about raising my child in Japanese until the age of 3. !
I feel that the bilingual brain is well formed.
Since my children are really leaving the nest, I would like to spend a lot of the precious time I have with them now, enjoying it.This text has been translated by auto-translation. There may be a slight difference between the original text and the translation. (Original Language: 日本語)

Hello. My son attended MCS preschool for two years, ages 3 and 4.
He attended Iolani from Kinder last year.
I think there is a good chance to get in from Kinder or Elementary
as they move from MCS pre to Kinder and then gosh darn it to Iolani or Punahou.
In fact, I was thinking of sending Elementary to MCS as well if I could not get into Iolani.
MCS Elementary also has 2 teachers per class of 18-20 students, so they can give you a lot more attention than other schools.
I was attracted to MCS there too, but decided to send her to Iolani where she was accepted because she could avoid taking the exam in the middle.
Like yuri, I am very convinced that you choose Middle because of your grades and interests at Elementary, and I am sure that you will develop that much academic ability and ability to make your own decisions
at MCS.
My son learned a lot at MCS preschool, and his independence and concentration were wonderfully developed. I believe this is what led to his success at Iolani.
We didn't have any tutoring or tutoring and he was able to pass without any connections.
Most of my classmates who were accepted to Punahou and Iolani Kinder also said that they did not have any tutoring or private tutoring
.
MCS has a high quality and level of teachers and a large number of teachers to the number of students, so there is no doubt that the students receive an excellent education.
Enjoy your future life at MCS !!This text has been translated by auto-translation. There may be a slight difference between the original text and the translation. (Original Language: 日本語)
