How do you tell a good story? Why should you want to?
MITell is a storytelling group, meeting monthly on campus and open to all in the MIT Community. If you’ve been thinking about sharing a story but wondering how to start, this is the workshop for you! Taught by Kirsty Bennett, a former director and producer for The Moth, this class will introduce basic narrative storytelling structure and help you begin to craft your own story.
Storytelling is a chance to reflect on your life, take stock of the events you've lived through, and think about how they have shaped you as a person. It's also a great first foray into tackling public speaking, and finding the confidence to share your own experiences. Sharing stories helps us build connections with our wider communities, understand better the lives of others, and appreciate and celebrate our differences. Join us!
