Home / Ivy Bridge Academy / HS After-School Public Speaking & Debate Description Program Info Schedule FAQs Description IBA After-School Public Speaking & Debate Sessions provide an interactive learning environment that is both fun and educational. Our goal is to introduce high school students to the art and science of persuasive fact based debate to foster confidence and independent thinking. Furthermore, public speaking help build the foundation of logic, confidence, and self-esteem. Students will learn communication skills that persuade and inspire! By laying the foundation for public speaking early, students will overcome the fear of speaking in public that even some adults experience. Ivy Bridge Academy works in partnership with High School locations in the Metro Atlanta area, who are dedicated to enriching the lives of their students to be thinkers, speakers and leaders.
