Training and Coaching

We meet every Wednesday at 6.00 in the Sir Alexander Fleming Building on the South Ken Campus, room 119.

The general format is around half an hour of training on a particular aspect of debating, followed by splitting off into different rooms to practice. This year the society is hiring professional coaches for some of the meetings in order to help you to reach your full debating potential. Debating is great fun and we move over to the union bar after every meeting to continue discussion on a less formal footing!

Do email me at debate@imperial.ac.uk to join up to the mailing list which gives out specific information about meetings each week. I look forward to seeing you soon!
