The Enterpreneurship Week in Narva is uniting all the interested people and this Wednesday (03.10.2018) brought our 11a, 12a students to the Narva Central Library American Space for an organized by US Embassy meeting with the prof. Dr Matrin Hasselberg (Saint John's University, Minnesota).

Here is some feedback from participants:

Ivan Danilin, 12a: I liked the seminar as a lecturer told about how to set goals for yourself and achieve them correctly. I also liked the charisma of John Martin Hasselberg. He tried to convey the essence to us with the help of some jokes. I was also pleasantly surprised by the philosophical thought : "There is a need for change. Somebody needs to do something and that somebody is you!"

Aleksandra Tarutina, 12a: It was an interesting and useful time spending. We had an opportunity to listen to a native speaker and practise our listening skills. Also we were acquainted with definitions such as enterpreneurship, critical and strategic thinking, improvisation and many other things that can be useful for us in the future.

Aleksandr Trohhatšov, 12a: On Wednesday we had the pleasure to attend a lecture, which was hosted by our country US embassy. We listened to a university professor talk about how to make decisions and how to facilitate that change. What I took away from this event is that a person has the capabilities to create something, no matter how insane it might be, and be successful with it b ut a single man cannot fully employ the benefits of his creation. That is why cooperation is important. It allows us to divide our best strengths and combine our efforts to get the best result.
