Rhetoric and Speaking(R&S)

What’s Included

Oratory Appeal

Compared to the Research and Argument course, this area of study is much more focused on speechwriting, presentation and rhetoric compared to analyzing sources and positions. Students will be guided through creating compelling speeches and how to deliver them effectively.

Hands-On Practice

Students will be able to participate in public tournaments and even rallies in order to hone their presentational skills, but speaking to classmates and receiving peer review will always be an option.

Character Building

Travelling means practicing social and foreign language skills and being in close contact to cultures where languages originate, meaning greater immersion and that chance to taste awesome cuisine.

What Students Say

“Got to try my hand at some speech tournaments…while I didn’t exactly get first place, I did well enough to get into the semi-finals, and I’m proud of how my skills have improved.”

-Anya, Class of 2025

“Surprised me how much my professor made it enjoyable. Would do it again just for her energy.”
