I recently completed the Masterclass Certificate in Speech and Debate at Stanmore School of Business and I must say that it was a thoroughly enjoyable and enriching experience. The course was very detailed and covered a wide range of topics, from the basics of speech structure to advanced debate techniques. I appreciated the emphasis on critical thinking and analysis, as well as the opportunities to practice and receive feedback on my speaking skills. The course materials were well-organized and easy to access, with a good mix of video lessons, readings, and exercises. One area for improvement could be more interaction with instructors and peers, but overall I'm satisfied with what I learned and would recommend the course to others who want to improve their communication and argumentation skills.
