The 7th and 8th graders, with their teachers Gayle Hampton, Megan Flynn, and Franck Le Martelot, meet a new professional who speak about his/her job and career during school hours every two weeks.

This topic of World of Work 4th Edition is “Identity & Values”: What is the purpose of work? Are we what we do? Who decides the “real value” of a job? Do most people “work for a living” or “live to work”?…

 

The Middle schoolers had the opportunity to meet John Bennett, Press Director of « Alouette Communications » and President of the « Paris American Club ».

He shared his lifelong interest in French and France and extensive experience, detailing step-by-step how he built a diverse career in communication, media, and cultural interests.

From New York to Paris, Canada to Puerto Rico, he explained how essential it is to develop an important network; remain flexible and open-minded to change and new developments; as well as stay true to ourselves.

Thank you very much, John Bennett, for your participation!
