About a piece of my daughter's homework. 娘の宿題のひとつ。
There are many summer holidays for junior high school students, and there are a lot of homework they have to do for summer.
A piece of my daughter's homework is to have an interview with a worker who has a long career. So I chose a person who is a jazz pianist and has a long successful career as a musician. He has been running a restaurant for more than 20 years which is performed jazz musics by musicians.
My daughter asked him 10 questions.
Why did he become a jazz pianist?,
What is the worth for doing the job? , and so on.
She took photos of him.
He was willing to answer with her request.
中学生には、たくさんの休日があります。そして、彼らは、やらなければならないたくさんの夏休みの宿題があります。
娘の宿題のひとつに、長いキャリアのある働いている人にインタビューするというのがあります。
それで、私は音楽家として成功しキャリアのあるジャズピアニストを選びました。
彼は20年以上ジャズ演奏の行われるレストランを経営しています。
娘は彼に10の質問をしました。
どうして、ジャズピアニストになったんですか?
仕事のやりがいはなんですか? その他いろいろ。
彼女は彼の写真を撮りました。
彼は彼女のリクエストに快く答えてくれていました。

There are many summer holidays for junior high school students, and there are a lot of homework they have to do for the summer.
One partof my daughter's homework is to have an interview with a worker who had a long career.
So I chose a person who is a jazz pianist and has a long, successful career as a musician.
He has been running a restaurant for more than 20 years where jazz musicians perform their music.
What is the worthpay for doing the job?
He was willing to answer any of her questions.
A piece of my daughter's homework is to have an interview with a worker who has had a long career.(If you add "had" after "has," it gives the meaning of a "continuing career." Also, I think how you used "a piece of" here is fine :) It sounded natural to me as I was reading it. But if I had to choose whether "part" or "piece" sounds more natural, I probably would pick "part." It's definitely not a big issue though ^^)

Why is the job worth doing? OR What makes the job worth doing?(It sounds a little awkward to say "What is the worth?" in this situation. That is because it sounds like you're talking in terms of money. But when you word it differently, it can turn into the meaning of "やりがい” instead of something money-related. ^^)
私の頃とはずいぶんと変わりました。
社会を知るいい機会ですね。

He is an expert pianist and music teacher. I had the fun time with talking to him.
Suteさん。コメントをありがとう。
今時の宿題は、親も手伝う羽目になっています。娘一人で突撃レポートができれば、たいしたものですが、なかなかそういうわけにも行かず、粗相のないように横に控えていました。
高校生になると文系理系の選択も必要になるので、そのための準備とも考えられます。
ピアニストのその先生は、夢を壊さないように安直にミュージシャンになれるように話されていましたが、毎日切磋琢磨し続ける生活が、そんなに楽なはずはないと思います。
なかなか日本語で思うようには英語が書けないので、書ける範囲の簡単な言葉に置き換えることが多いです。
