Interaction with local people

I am a 17 year old student.
I am here in Hawaii for language study.
I speak Japanese more often than not because the school I attend is overwhelmingly Japanese.
I don't intend to blame the environment around me at all, in fact, I can't thank the many Japanese people enough for helping me, but I would like to have more opportunities to use English and interact with the local people.I would like to know if there are any activities, events, volunteer activities, etc. that you would recommend.
Please let me know if there is anything you know.
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)

Studying English in Hawaii at the age of 17, that's a wonderful experience.
And your attitude of not blaming the environment is wonderful ! and your willingness to interact with the locals is also wonderful !
I run an English school in Waikiki, and like you, there are people who are 'struggling' in other schools with a high percentage of Japanese students in their classes.I run an English school in Waikiki, and like you, I know people who have 'struggled' in other schools with a high percentage of Japanese students and large class sizes
. My school has a strict English-only policy and keeps the class size small, with an average of 4 or 5 students.
A student from Switzerland found volunteer work in a preschool. Good luck to you too !.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 too think Yoo's attitude is wonderful. I myself had similar problems when I studied in Hawaii, so I understand.
I had the opportunity to get to know local people through volunteering and learning.
At places like Sustainable Coastlines Hawaii and Surfrider Oahu Chapter, which regularly conduct beach cleanups and other activities, the staff was very personable and everyone was kind.In some places, everyone has a strong bond with each other and you may be treated like a stranger, but the more times you show up, the more people will talk to you. I am sure that with your attitude, if you take your time and don't rush, you will be accepted. If you like, you can inquire about it. Recently, some events that were closed in Corona are being resumed, so I think the timing is also good. This text has been translated by auto-translation.

When you are a language student, it's hard to buy with the locals.
I rarely interact with Japanese people. Well, I am not a language student, but I live in
Hawaii.
My recommendation is to go to a Christian church service. Preferably one that doesn't have
Japanese language services.
I am a Christian, so I attend services, but I don't
attend Japanese services now.
Also, I live in an environment where I have no interaction with Japanese people.
Please visit your local church. Maybe you will find what you are looking for there

Yoo,
you seem like a very solid person.
Have you heard of the website meetup.com ?
If you search by hobbies or interests, such as hiking, volleyball, or Japanese language learners in Oahu, you can find activity groups.
Why don't you try to find one?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)
