Debate Training Programs
Debate Classes
Our classes will cover the fundamentals of argumentation, rebuttal, style, strategy, and case preparation techniques. Class sizes are kept small, with a maximum of 8 students for each trainer.
The entire program consists of a series of detailed lectures along with complementary exercises pegged at varying difficulty levels to cater to both new and experienced debaters. Each exercise is followed by extensive feedback sessions tailored for each participant.
Options for Advanced classes will be provided as students progress and become more proficient.
Diagnostic session
Before any student begins training with us, they are required to have an individual, 30-minute session where they will be assessed by one or both of our partners. We place a strong emphasis on understanding the needs of each of our students and will use this session to create a custom profile to track your development and to focus on specific weaknesses during class. In addition, this diagnostic session will also function as a trial class so you are better equipped to decide if our classes are valuable for you.
