We are excited to continue our popular Youth Debate Club over the summer by offering this unique German Debate Camp from July 20 to July 24 -- the only kind of summer camp in North Carolina, based on the "Jugend Debattiert" initiative of the German President Frank-Walter Steinmeier, the German Federal Ministry of Education and Research and the Hertie Foundation, led by our certified "Jugend debattiert" teacher Dr. Hofmann.
This German Debate Camp is for rising 3rd to 12th graders who want to take their German language skills one step further by learning how to debate like a pro. It particularly benefits students prepping for DSD 1 and DSD 2 exams, students who love having meaningful conversations, and students who are struggling with conversational anxiety and/or shyness.
No prior debate knowledge required, only knowledge of the German language.
For questions please contact Dr. Hofmann.
