This is a beginner debate class, topics will change every week, so come and practice your communications skills!
What to expect:
- Every week, you will start with a topic (examples below). You will have 5 minutes to curate a speech (no research needed) and deliver it during the class. This is an impromptu speech.
- The second half of the class will be spent practicing beginner debate skills. Learners will be given the topic a week in advance so they can do some research and gather facts to support their opinion.
Example debate topics:
- Movies are never as good as the book.
- Giving is better than receiving.
- Surviving on a deserted island is easier than surviving in a jungle.
