The main goal is to help students see Teofila Silberring as a whole person rather than only as a victim of the Holocaust. Her testimony offers an opportunity to explore the complexity of her identity, her life before the war, the rupture caused by persecution and extermination, and the ways she rebuilt her life afterwards. It also encourages them to understand how personal memories can reveal both what was lost and what remained, making Holocaust history more personal, nuanced and human.
