Vamos a debatir: Curso Superior en curso

In this debating club, learners will share their ideas on a variety of topics. Learners will develop their critical thinking, organisation and communication skills. ESL friendly.

Being a successful debater requires children to draw on their own experiences of life, their beliefs and their own understanding of the world. Bringing this together in planning, writing and speaking gives them an opportunity to express their opinions. It reinforces the child’s confidence and promotes personal development. Children learn to perceive people, their behaviour and their reaction to what is being said.

Each week will follow a different theme and the class will work to help learners develop their ideas, organise them and deliver an effective speech. Each class will also cover an important aspect of public speaking, such as making eye contact or supporting your ideas with evidence.
