“I have learned from the training how to work in a team with other club members and how to be more confident when speaking in a group.”

“I was impressed by the team building activities and will apply them in the future.”

“What I liked the most is being able to communicate, learn, listen, and observe group members practising presentation with confidence and assertiveness.”

“My favourite part of the training was learning about being confident, optimistic, enthusiastic and proactive, not to be taken by surprise.”

“Be confident in yourself, participate responsibly in club activities, overcome insecurities, listen, share and voice your opinions with other members and engage in club activities.”

“After a day of training, I felt happy and integrated, more confident and impressed that the whole team has worked together to build a house that is as strong as the club.”
