Drills

Get your reps in.

Debate is a performance skill, and you get better at it by doing it. Pick a skill, grab a partner if you have one, and run a drill.

Signpost March

Give a rebuttal where every transition is an explicit signpost. Number each response and announce each move until the structure is automatic.

Deliver the same one-minute speech three times, cutting filler words and tightening delivery on every pass.

Explain your most technical argument to three imaginary judges (a parent, a teacher, a college debater), adjusting vocabulary and depth for each.

Give an argument in 60 seconds, then 40, then 25, keeping the same content in fewer words until every sentence earns its place.
