Debating Course

From opinion to argument – Learning to debate in English

Have you always felt inadequate when you were supposed to have your own opinion on a particular topic of current affairs? Not to speak of the embarrassment when somebody asked you to put it into clear words? Or even to convince others that you were right and they were wrong??

Well, you will probably agree that what already seems quite a challenge in your mother tongue may be an even greater challenge in a foreign language. Or not?

In our 12-lesson mini “Debating Course,” which is held in the context of PNNR lessons, the T 4A and the T 4B are courageous and eloquent when asked to express their opinion (or the exact opposite) in little speeches and rebuttals oozing with logic and well-considered arguments… in clear-cut English on top of it …! 

Feel free to contact our possible politicians of the future … it´s good to know people who know their way and how to explain it!
