Reflection:
I think this interview was really helpful in a certain way. It helped me to clarify some daubs that
I had, such as the exact requirements of the club. Also, it was a different experience compare to
others that I had before in other classes, because I never had the opportunity to make an
interview in my second language. To be honest, I think this research is a good opportunity to
learn as an outsider about another group that I didnt use to know before.
The process of the interview was really comfortable, because I already had my questions written
down and I can tell that the interviewee was comfortable too, because she understood every
question that I asked and also she answered really fast every of them.
From the interview I gained a lot of information that I didnt get from the observation such as her
main goal within the group, what did motivate her to be part of the group, her personal
experience within the group, for how long she has been joining the club, and as I said in the
above the exact requirements of the club.
