Debate: From Beginner to Professional Tournaments
Hi Everyone! I am Shivansh and I am absolutely a nerd of debating! I have been debating since I was 7 and loving it since forever and I absolutely cannot wait my learnings with you all! As seen by the growth of debating so much during the pandemic and now that it has become an academic activity that far surpasses any other due to the rigour debating brings, it is essential to learn such a skill! I am starting this Debate series to teach it from scratch! Don't worry if you do not know debating --- THIS IS THE PLACE TO BE! Here is just a small, little, teeny, tiny glimpse of what my series is going to entail (I want some parts to be a surprise :) for you!):
#Session 1: Orientation: Meet and Greet and Introduction to the Debate - Debate is less theory and more Fun :)!
#Session 2: Debating Basics 101: Learning What Debate is? What am I doing here on a Sunday Morning :) And Also How to Debate?
#Session 3: Novice Debating 101: Theory and Drills - Debating, Rationality, Logic and NEW FORMAT - WSDC Debating
#Session 4: Novice Debating 101: Practice Debates on WSDC, feedback and fun!
#Session 5: Novice Debating 101: Theory - WSDC Advanced
#Session 6: Intermediate Debating 101: Practice Debating on Harder topics, less time and fun!
#Session 7: Intermediate Debating 101: Theory - Logical Fallacies, Speaking Strategies and Judging
#Session 8: Advanced Debating 101: Debating Test - Check for Review - Quiz + Practice Debates
#Session X....
I am also looking to help you go into professional and prestigious debate tournaments after a rigorous amount of training, these include Stanford, Harvard, Oxford and many more debating competitions! So, if you are someone who though debating was hard or someone who has excelled at debate all your life, this series is for you! Whether a beginner or a pro, you always have something new to learn in our sessions!
Note: Every session we will be doing a whole lot of practice debating, so do not worry about forgetting the skill! And plus, incase you want I can assign homework (But personally I do not like homework too!).
Anyways, this course will go level by level - Novice, Intermediate, Advanced and Varsity! But we can have as many catch up sessions and as many series sessions added as the course is structured according to you! So what are you waiting for? Ready to take the Debate Series challenge?
