World of Words Institute: where every voice can change the world.
1:4 Staff-to-Student Ratio
We pride ourselves on making sure students feel seen and heard. Our classroom sizes reflect this pedagogy.
Targeted Hours
Instead of using the conventional 12 hour schedule of non-stop debate, we are using a more debate focused schedule from 9 AM to 5 PM with lighter study halls and student activities in the evening.
Tailored Curriculum
Our labs and instruction material are tailored to the needs of the students we serve. We do this by offering mentorship as well as staff lesson planning time for the best service to students.
Grow your creative confidence
Debate is an activity that forces you to think on your feet and speak your mind. Some find this terrifying but we find this as the PERFECT opportunity to bring the best out of you. Through practice rounds, drills, and personalized time, you can grow exponentially in a short amount of time.
Develop flexibility and comaraderie
Speech & Debate is an activity that is dedicated to teamwork. Whether you’re speaking or behind the scenes or performing on your own or prepping with a group, the contribution of every person is important. You don’t have to be the strongest speaker to be the best researcher in your squad. You don’t have to know every current event to deliver a strong closing speech. Different strengths and camaraderie are the essence we lean into. Our camp is dedicated to showing this to students in real-time.
