Evaluation of Life Skills Class for First Year Athletes

“With time, self-love, and more reassurance from people like (Claire and Peyton), I understand that the healthiest diet is one that works best with me and my body, not something from social media or a website. I also enjoyed the way the two actively engaged with the class through food and games. I thought that showing information on Monday & following up with a game on Wednesday to display the things that we learned was a good practice of retrieval while also getting competitive with my classmates. Overall, I enjoyed this week’s presentation since it provided a lot of delicious and healthy food options while engaging the class in a fun way.”
