What participants said about the workshop

"I learned that it's not always about you, whenever someone does something that looks like the thing that you think not good but it's actually something good; for example they are actually listening

I enjoyed the class because you are not just learning it when sitting down in one spot and teacher explaining everything, you get to actually do it so that you understand it more"

It turned out I did a lot of things that were uncomfortable to me as part of the homework. A lot more than I thought I did

This class helped me meet people. There is a teacher who always helps us at project time and I started to talk to her sometimes and before I was only answering. Before I talked to my friends and I did not talk to some people even though I wanted to be their friend; sometimes someone looked nice but I did not talk to them and waited until they talk to me because I was too shy. Now sometimes when I see people I just talk to them; like I ask them what their name is, what they like to do. I can do it now because we practiced that and I had more experience and knew what to do when I meet people"

"This workshop is very useful and meaningful. I learned what I should say to people who are mean to me, or how to talk to people who are sad."

"This class helped me understand how to communicate better, how to solicit other people's feelings and thoughts, and in turn share mine to avoid potential confusions and misunderstandings. I realized that uncomfortable tasks can be hidden behind a sense of independence, namely - it is OK to ask for help as others would like to help just as much as you are afraid of asking them for that help."

"I really loved Improvisation game - it was a lot of fun. I also feel I made progress in conflict resolution and learned to be more patient and not dominate everybody with my own opinion."
