Speech and Debate Coaching
In partnership with the City of Rancho Cordova, Suvidha International Foundation, a California registered non-profit, conducted our first batch speech and debate programs over zoom earlier. We are organizing our second annual Speech and Debate program for 4th to 8th grade students starting January 2023, free of charge.
Public Speaking
Being able to speak in front of a crowd is an essential life skill, and there is nowhere better to start than speech and debate. Help conquer any fears by partaking in our program.
Researching
Knowing what to look for, how to look for it, and how to compile it is yet another life skill that is critical to future success. Both speech and debate require extensive research to be successful.
Critical Thinking
Thinking on your feet and being able to respond to comments on the fly proves to be an extremely important trait to keep in your back pocket. Join the speech and debate program to help realize your potential!

The Secret of Success
It is a well-known fact that in order to be successful, you need to be able to communicate effectively. No matter how smart you may be, not being able to communicate with others and share your ideas will effectively neutralize all that is going for you.
Why Speech and Debate?
Well-represented world figures want you to know…
Speech is power: speech is to persuade, to convert, to compel. Speech is civilization itself, it is silence which isolates.
Ralph Waldo Emerson

Your ability to communicate with others will account for fully 85% of your success in your business and in your life.

Words do two major things: they provide food for the mind and create light for understanding and awareness.
