The kids really enjoyed it, and it definitely sparked interest. I have a good size list of kids who are interested in debate! Some are pleasant surprises and I am hopeful that they'll stick with it.

I’m grateful for the opportunity to express myself freely. Although I initially felt anxious about how my voice and style of speech would be received, I’ve learned that it’s possible to make your speech uniquely yours while maintaining coherence and order.

Every Saturday, when it is debate time, there is a lot of excitement. We have seen some students who would not normally contribute, actually actively taking part in the debate sessions. The program has sparked a remarkable increase in interest in debate across the school community. 

This opportunity boosted my confidence; I refined my public speaking skills, and honed my ability to think critically. The experience inspired me to embrace challenges and pursue personal growth with newfound enthusiasm.

I have developed confidence, understood the importance of body language, and mastered the art of debate. I have avoided filler words like “um” and “like” to effectively communicate my thoughts.

I gained valuable skills in listening, creative thinking, and critical thinking. I'm already putting these skills into practice. I appreciate Eloquence Academy and will work harder to develop my public speaking most definitely.

I liked all these lessons very much, and the coaches were all super supportive and awesome. I wish them success at their upcoming tournaments and competitions. Thank you for teaching me!
