Why Debates Work for ESL Classrooms
Debates are a powerhouse for ESL learning!
Boost Language Skills: Debates encourage clear articulation, active listening, and vocabulary growth
Build Confidence: Structured roles (e.g., opener, rebutter) create a safe space for shy students to speak up, fostering self-assurance and team-work.
Sharpen Critical Thinking: Analyzing pros and cons prepares students for real-world discussions, like job interviews or academic seminars.
Promote Inclusivity: Adaptable for all levels with simple topics for beginners (e.g., “Cats vs. dogs?”) or complex ones for advanced learners (e.g., “Should AI be used in education?”).
What’s Inside Your Teacher Toolkit

Printable Templates: Customizable tools like the Debate Phrase Bank, Reflection Sheet, and Debate Planner to plan lessons in minutes.
