The BHMS students interviewed Benjamin in French and even had lunch with him in the cafeteria. Benjamin, who is here to improve his American English accent, said he was grateful for the hospitality and kindness he received from the kids.
"It was a great and rare opportunity to have him speak to our students," Madame Pecheux said.
