Public Speaking skills at Debate Camp are developed in 2 ways: First, debating itself works towards 2 - 3 minute speaking times for all campers, often with limited notes and inspired by the topic and / or an opponent's case. Secondly, we warm up all sessions with impromptu speaking games, that encourage participation and help campers overcome any reluctance to speak in the company of others.
