THE DEBATE PROGRAM

Research. Evidence. Structure. These are the cornerstones of the debate program. In debate, we teach students contentions, claims, support and impact, as well as help them with flow, rebuttal and framework. Not only is it about debate but the skills needed to conduct research, construct an argument, make solid definitions and work with a partner. The ENREACH Debate program guides students from the basics of debate through to topic analysis and on to advanced strategies and principles for tournament-level debaters. Students learn how to research topics and craft effective arguments on a variety of current event topics.  As the representatives for NSDA in China, ENREACH organizes tournaments across China so that our students have opportunities to compete both locally and nationally. ENREACH also delivers Model United Nations courses and competitions in which students practice collaborative problem solving through diplomacy and negotiation.  By giving short speeches, participating in group discussions, and writing resolutions, students develop a range of skills important to thriving in an international education setting.
