François Petit-Perrin

This Parkour ED episode features a conversation between the host, Colin Dailey, and guest, François Petit-Perrin, who shares details about his background and educational journey. François was born in France and studied law and history before obtaining a teaching certification to become a history and geography teacher. He taught at a middle school in a diverse suburb north of Paris for eight years, followed by a move to the United States, where he taught for another eight years at a French American Charter School in New York before eventually relocating to Singapore just under two years ago. Francois' educational and professional path highlights his transition from a background in law and history to a fulfilling career in teaching, where he has worked with diverse student populations. His experiences in both France and the United States contribute to his well-rounded perspective and career.  Aren’t we lucky to have him among us here at the International French School (SINGAPORE!)
