What makes Next Level Debate Academy Summer Camp Different?
Our camp is unique and different from other camps. We focus on a niche part of debate. Our curriculum focuses on the style of the Critique. This style focuses on philosophy and pedagogy rather than basic theory and argumentation. So, rather than teaching basics and theories, we want to take the next step to build on the foundation of knowledge that they have and take it a step further.
“Next Level” is a transformation where form and content merge to create a unique style of argument that reflects each individual debater. It pushes students to achieve a higher level of reading comprehension and critical thinking on vitally important subject areas.
