Q：這個暑假你參加了IKIF的夏校，為什么選擇參加IKIF? 能簡單介紹一下IKIF嗎?
A：IKIF是International Keyboard Institute&Festival的簡稱，是由曼尼斯音樂學(xué)院，雅馬哈公司，聯(lián)合來自世界各地的音樂家共同舉辦的年度古典音樂節(jié)，已有快二十年歷史。作為世界三大古典音樂節(jié)之一，IKIF音樂節(jié)主要由三部分組成：鋼琴演奏大師課及講座，著名鋼琴家音樂會和鋼琴演奏比賽部分。這次我有幸上了Jerome Rose, Yuri KIm, Steven Mayer, MateiVarga， Ilya Yakushev等鋼琴大師的課，受益匪淺。選擇IKIF作為我十年級暑假的夏校是因?yàn)槲覍诺湟魳返臒釔郏瑫r我也非常喜歡參與了這次音樂節(jié)的鋼琴家Yuri Kim，迫不及待想見到真人向她取經(jīng)學(xué)習(xí)，所以我選擇了IKIF音樂節(jié)作為暑期活動。

Q：你覺得是什么讓你收獲了IKIF的offer?
A：申請的過程其實(shí)不復(fù)雜，錄好自己的演奏視頻，寫好statement，表達(dá)好自己對音樂的喜愛以及參加這次音樂節(jié)的目的，就足夠impress音樂節(jié)的招生官，順利拿到offer啦。
Q：參加完這次活動，你**大的收獲是什么?
A：事實(shí)證明，我這次的夏校選擇是正確的，這幾個星期在紐約的收獲，足以讓我的演奏重新上一個新的臺階，有了質(zhì)的飛躍。對于感情的處理，細(xì)節(jié)的變化，我也有了新的認(rèn)識。**值得一提的是我們每天下午4點(diǎn)的lecture，教授們會從不同經(jīng)典電影里挑選出經(jīng)典的配樂，讓我們帶入情節(jié)去感受，去分析，去升華自己。
Q：對于馬上要進(jìn)入的11年級，你給自己定一個小小的目標(biāo)吧?
A：”因?yàn)橐恢币詠砦医o自己的定位比較特殊，**近又愛上了作曲，所以我的十一年級會和其他同學(xué)很不一樣。我的目標(biāo)是，在不影響學(xué)習(xí)的情況下，創(chuàng)作5-8首完整的曲子并錄制成專輯，舉辦3-5場個人鋼琴獨(dú)奏會，完成自己籌劃的一個大型music project(保密嘻嘻)。學(xué)習(xí)方面至少托福115 ，SAT1560左右和AP 各科5分。同時GPA保持4.0/4.0不跌。完成一次Yale University的campus visit。
Q：有什么樣的建議給到這些新加入的學(xué)弟學(xué)妹們?
A：希望學(xué)弟學(xué)妹們能真正搞清楚自己想要的是什么，千萬不要向現(xiàn)實(shí)低頭，做自己想做，愛做的事情。對于學(xué)習(xí)，放松就好，你把它當(dāng)成是一個任務(wù)，它自然就變得艱巨起來;你把它當(dāng)成是很relax的一件事，你就會發(fā)現(xiàn)其實(shí)沒什么難的。加油吧希望大家都考上女神校!!

楊雨馨在結(jié)課典禮上的演講原文：
Dear students, teachers, staffs, and all the guests,
Good morning! My name is Rebecca Yang, from Grade 10, and it is my honor to represent the senior students and give a speech here. Thanks for your safe arrival.
I did have a great year in RDF and there are tons of experience I wanna share with you. But most importantly, I just wanna say thank you to all of the teachers and staffs that helped us, taught us and treated us with all of their heart. Here’s my sincere gratitude.( bow deeply) No matter where you’ll be in the future, we will memorize all of you as honorable teachers of RDF big family. Thanks again for your contributions to RDF.
For the juniors, you’re lucky to be here because RDF will give you extraordinary experiences in the future; but for the seniors, we have more duties on our shoulders. We’ll be fighting for our future in the next year or two, for the applications, and for the colleges. We’ve been told that being into a good college could be the game changer of our lives , and most of us are preparing for it diligently but nervously. And that’s the problem. It’s like after deciding what major you wanna take in the future, you’ll have second thought or something, that makes you reconsider about whether your decision is right or wrong. This isn’t the time to make hard and fast decisions, this is the time to make mistakes. If you take the wrong train and stuck somewhere, it will be fine. Change your mind, and change it again, because nothing’s permanent. In my case, I’ve always wanted to become a concert pianist. I’ve been preparing for it since I was a child, and I made a lot of efforts to accomplish my dreams. However, after watching a movie called LIFE, about Mars, I found that I’m highly interested in astronomy and all those mysteries in the unknown universe. I’m also passionate about the Literature, because i found that there is a huge connection between the literature and the classical music I’ve been playing. No one knows what will happen in the future. So make as many mistakes as you can, that way some day when they ask what we wanna be, we won’t have to guess, we will KNOW.
Today is our last day as 10th graders, or 9th 8th 7th graders in your cases. and as we prepare for our future, as we move into tomorrow, just remember, we are the BEST. Trust yourselves, step forward, and there’ll be a bright future waiting for u, right there.

Q:為什么選擇夏天去參加MIT機(jī)器人夏校?能簡單介紹一下這個夏校嗎?
A:這是一個關(guān)于人工智能和自動駕駛技術(shù)的項(xiàng)目，在MIT的校園里我們將主要學(xué)習(xí)基礎(chǔ)的無人駕駛概念，傳感器的使用，機(jī)器視覺的應(yīng)用以及其他數(shù)據(jù)分析的方法。我認(rèn)為這個活動可以讓我接觸真正的大學(xué)項(xiàng)目，從而熟悉此類項(xiàng)目的進(jìn)行方式來更好地準(zhǔn)備大學(xué)的生活。
Q:你覺得是什么讓你收獲了MIT機(jī)器人夏校的offer?
A:對于這次夏校來說，我認(rèn)為我在知識儲備上并沒有太多的優(yōu)勢，但是我發(fā)現(xiàn)問題，迅速適應(yīng)新環(huán)境的能力給了我一個進(jìn)入夏校的機(jī)會，平時對于理工學(xué)科的熱愛讓我更能夠在自己的領(lǐng)域發(fā)揮自己的創(chuàng)意。
Q:參加完這次活動，你**大的收獲是什么?
A:在經(jīng)過這次的學(xué)習(xí)后，我深刻地體會到學(xué)習(xí)多種技能的重要性，但是我也體會到了駕馭這些技能的難度，就像我的導(dǎo)師跟我說的一樣，在學(xué)成之后，技能就顯得不再重要，而那些能讓你創(chuàng)新的往往是那些運(yùn)用技能的靈感以及獨(dú)特的思考方式。
Q:對于馬上要進(jìn)入的11年級，你給自己定一個小小的目標(biāo)吧?
A:就學(xué)業(yè)上來說，我的目標(biāo)是做好時間管理，以**高效的方式去學(xué)習(xí)，去充實(shí)自己，獲得技能，從而以**大的限度使用它們。在生活方面，我希望我能夠在繁忙的學(xué)業(yè)中保持**和健康的生活方式，得到充足的社交活動，這些也是非常重要的。
Q:有什么樣的建議給到這些新加入的學(xué)弟學(xué)妹們。
A:我想對新加入的學(xué)弟學(xué)妹們說：對于大部分的你們來說這是一個新的開始，你們將有機(jī)會掌控自己大部分的生活，但是自由代表著一種責(zé)任，長輩們不能永遠(yuǎn)為我們掌舵，我們終究需要靠自己找到屬于自己的港灣。所以為自己找一個目標(biāo)，一個可以為之不顧一切努力的方向，這就是我們在這里的幾年中所需要的。

周亦凡在結(jié)課典禮上的演講原文：
Good morning esteemed faculty and families of my fellow schoolmates. It’s an honor to be standing up here today. I know that we all think we are here to share the best time of our life, we are supposed to feel that way. From wherever we come from, from whatever experiences we have had before, we are joining the big family of RDF. it is a brand-new start for all of us.
Life is a complex of different experiences and emotions. We all have our ups and downs as we sailing through the roaring waves and hold tight on the walnut shell just so we could have a glimpse to the rainbow at top of the hill. We feel hopeful on a beautiful day like today, but there will be dark days ahead of us too, when I had that experience in my summer school just weeks away from today, I was facing all the technical problems at once, when everything is pint south, I feel alone, and I think I would just going to say “this is it.”, that is how the project ends. Indeed, it happens, it happens to all of us, in life nothing is going to work as you would expect at very first place. But aside from giving up and accept that result, I strongly recommend you to take a really close look at your situation. The so-called obstaclesand hard questions, they are nothing more than a bunch of simple problems coming together, and problems are only there to be solved. So, I jump right in, I do the trouble shooting, I solve the problem and I solve the next, without excuses and complain. that’s how simple it is. You have the total control of your life, why not tap yourself on the shoulder and give yourself a big smile. Be optimistic，and don’t think what’s coming to you next. That is the most precious information I want to share and want everyone to remember. Be simple, that is what made me who I am today.
Today, at the start of a brand-new life here at RDF. I hope everyone to live and study as who you truly are, we are not here to live somebody else’s life, make your day count, create unique impact and making contributions to the society. I know you all challenged yourself and made amazing accomplishments to get here, but learning is an infinite path, you can learn something quickly and there are other things that might take you years to understand. No matter how outstanding we were before, it is what we do now and next that matters the most. What have you done lately? That’s the question everyone should ask themselves to motivate ourselves, and keep doing well. I wish everyone have a fantastic morning at RDF and carry on in the years to come. Thank you!
