Storytelling - Soccer in Cuba

By Elle Knofczynski


I think the experience of telling a story was generally positive. It was different because I was telling it to people I was more comfortable with.

Since it was my peers that were listening to me, and we’re all in about the same age group, I think there were general understandings or expectations that we hold ourselves and one another to. I did find it a little more intimidating because I was not reading off something but rather attempting to recall the details of my story while making sure it was also engaging.

I think this project definitely benefited the class community. I think the stories were so different from one another and truly showed different sides to each person based off of what they thought was a good story and how they executed it. We had the opportunity to help one another with our strengths in places where others were weaker.
