My method emphasizes real-life persuasion and communication. Debating has clear rules and a defined topic. Attempting to convince colleagues, clients, friends, or family, on the other hand, is often more chaotic. My goal has long been to transfer all the benefits of debating (techniques, teaching methods, and means of practice) into relevant contexts: presentations and pitches, organizational growth, and even improved relationships. With this method, you will learn the four core skills of effective communication: listening, engaging, articulating, and persuading. Thus, you will become the champion of every verbal interaction.

Sure! The tools I teach you for persuasion are universal. You can apply them to any topic, context, or situation. In other words, I will teach you how to fish rather than simply giving you a fish.

The many years I have spent debating have taught me how to overcome demagogy and lies. I am happy to share my techniques with as many people as possible.
Debating is an intellectual sport in which one competes in arguing best for a motion and position randomly assigned to them. The topics range from politics, law, economics, education, and IR, to pop culture. The preparation time before the speech is only 15 minutes. Googling is not allowed. Debating was developed as early as the 18th century in Cambridge, England. A debate is judged by a qualified adjudicator who gives each participant feedback for improvement. The game is an incredibly engaging and efficient platform for developing skills such as public speaking, persuasion, logical thinking, and separating the wheat from the chaff.
Like chess, you can learn the basic rules quickly, but it may take years to become a master. The beauty of debating is the opportunity to continuously improve while discovering new depths of persuasion. I teach a 12-session course to ensure participants know and practice the essential tools of rhetoric (such as speech structure, argument structure, and rebuttal). You can, however, continue debating and implementing new feedback for a long time after.
Whatever your starting point, I guarantee that you will improve. In the past decade, I have transformed insecure speakers who couldn't hold a stage for more than a minute into confident speakers who give impressive speeches in public.
