Experiencia de clase

See syllabus for daily details. This camp is a great course to introduce or practice civil discourse, persuasive techniques, and modern-day domestic and international topics.  This is a high school camp in a no pressure classroom.  Each day we will learn a public forum (PF) debate skills and work on mini-PF debates.   Some days we may run over, especially if I am working with Novice debaters that need a bit of skills building.  Students can choose after our research, what side they would like to present, although if too many people want to debate one side, teacher may choose students after asking for volunteers to argue the unrepresented side. Students may prepare ahead of time, but it is not necessary. Handouts will be provided at the beginning of the camp for students to review before class.  Our debate format will be introduced on Day One.  Coach Hughes is a retired attorney, criminal justice professor, high school teacher and has coached Champion Speech and Debate teams and individuals for over 15 years.

Orientación para padres
The topics in this class could be upsetting to some learners. Second Amendment, Juvenile Offenders and Dreamers may trigger sensitive learners. I argue these topics with high school students all the time, but depending on research, students may find a fact or statistic upsetting. I will encourage students to discuss their debates with their friends and family.
Lista de útiles escolares

Fuentes
Class information is from government sources, peer reviewed articles and Debate Briefs. I do discourage students from using media that is biased. If you are concerned, please review the Media Bias Chart by Ad Fontes. In actual competitions, using sources that are slanted or questionable will hurt the debaters, so I try to stick with the format as much as possible. The topics chosen for this class are prior debate topics (we are actually arguing biometrics right now in Public Forum, and Dreamers in Parliamentary Debate). My sources come from online Briefs written by professionals for each topic. I include Wikipedia in the listing because I show student the topic and then have them go to the footnotes to see if there are credible sources. Students will use primary, secondary and peer reviewed articles of their choice to present evidence. Students will use the internet to find their evidence.

Experiencia y certificaciones del docente
Doctorado desde State University of Buffalo School of Law
It is my pleasure to have the opportunity to work with you and your favorite student(s).  I have over 20 years of teaching experience, from Pre-K through Graduate School.  I am a former Professor and was the History Department Chair /History teacher at the High School Level for 10 years.  My certification was in Middle and High School History.  I am a retired Criminal, International and Family Law attorney. I also have coached Speech and Debate for over 15 years on both the NSDA and TOC circuits and regularly have students making it to finals in prestigious tournaments such as Harvard, Stanford and Georgetown.  I also take students and parents overseas on Educational Tours and have been fortunate to travel to such places as China, Japan, Mexico, Paris, Rome, and Greece.

My teaching style is varied. I try to tailor my classes to the individua by using as many techniques and learning styles in each of my classes as possible.  My two youngest children are Special Needs (Autistic, Apraxic, Cognitive and Auditory Delays).  Working with my own children has taught me that education must be personalized to each learner for maximum impact.  I encourage all students and their parents to contact me so that we can tailor each of my classes to your strengths and those skills you hope to work on the most. Please note that I will allow higher level students who are underage in my classes, or older students who have difficulties in class that are more suited to their level.  Please contact me to discuss.  I look forward to meeting you all.
