Over 2 days at the beginning of the year, Free Debate trainer Lynne Featonby attended the English Language Summer School of the Australian Karen Foundation in Werribee.
A class of 15 youths and adults, originally from Burma, added to their English language skills through several sessions of public speaking and argument training. The students prepared and presented speeches to the group, engaged in group discussions about government policies and displayed great improvements in their confidence and abilities!
The sessions were very enjoyable for the students and trainer. Free Debate thanks Kiemi Lai, Engaged Communities Coordinator at the Western Bulldogs who recommended us. Free Debate also thanks Kath Cooney from Foundation House, who ran the Summer School Programme.
