A complete communication programme, not just a debate class.
The goal is not louder students. It is clearer, more confident and more thoughtful ones. Every term covers three things.
01
Public speaking
Delivery, confidence, voice modulation, body language and verbal clarity, and structuring ideas so they land.
02
Debating
Building arguments, rebuttals, debate formats (British Parliamentary, WSDC, Oxford) and reasoning under pressure.
03
General knowledge
Current affairs, global issues, GK quizzes and a newsletter every two weeks, so students always have something to say.
Who it is for
Students in Grades 5 to 12, in two age groups: Grades 5 to 8 and Grades 9 to 12. Three levels in each (Foundational, Intermediate, Advanced), so every child is placed where they belong.
In every class
- Live speaking drills and structured practice
- Guided debate exercises and discussion rounds
- Real-time feedback from the trainer
- Current affairs and GK discussion
For parents
- Feedback for your child after every session
- Every class recorded, so a missed class is never lost
- Attendance, GK quizzes and progress visible to parents
- A certificate at the end of the term
How it works
12 live classes a month
Three classes a week, 60 minutes each, live online with a Taivas coach. Weekday evenings or weekends, you pick the slot.
A batch of 10, at your child's level
Foundational, Intermediate or Advanced, in two age groups. A free 60-minute trial class places them.
A 3-month term, scored and recorded
Every class is recorded. Each term your child is scored on four skills and finishes with a certificate.
Which one sounds like your child?
Three levels, in two age groups (Grades 5 to 8 and Grades 9 to 12). A beginner and a school debater are never in the same room. The free trial decides the level.
Level 1Foundational
Finding your voice
For a child who have ideas but freeze when asked to stand up, or lose the thread halfway through.
By the end they speak alone without fear and structure a speech from start to finish.
See Foundational batches
Level 2Intermediate
Sharpening the mind
For a child who speak comfortably but fall apart when pushed back, or cannot yet say why their point matters.
By the end they argue, not just speak and debate in sides, as part of a team.
See Intermediate batches
Level 3Advanced
Competing with the best
For a child who already debate and win at school, or want national or international stages.
By the end they compete in full team formats and handle cross-questioning under time pressure.

Before you book
My child is shy. Is this too advanced?
No. Most students start at Foundational, and in a batch of ten every child gets a turn.
What if we miss a class?
The recording is on the LMS the same day, and the coach picks up in the next class.
Do they have to compete?
No. Competition is optional. The programme makes any child a clearer speaker.
What happens after three months?
Your child moves up a level or repeats it with new material, based on their term scores.
