[For Junior and Senior High School Students] Towards "Using English Skills"—Recruiting Students for the "English Debate Course" to Train Logical Thinking and Communication Skills
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

Jena Academy (Japanese name: Jena Academy, operated by: We Are Education Co., Ltd.) is offering an "English Debate Course" for junior and senior high school students with foundational English skills. The purpose of this course is not merely to learn English as knowledge, but to cultivate the ability to "think logically and express one's own opinions."

■ About the English Debate Course
This course primarily consists of online classes in an impromptu debate format (Parliamentary Debate), where students are divided into pro and con sides on a given topic and engage in logical discussions in English.

Through the entire process of constructing one's own opinion in English, understanding the opponent's arguments, and refuting them, students simultaneously train practical English skills and advanced thinking abilities.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
■ What is Impromptu (Parliamentary) Debate?
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

Impromptu (Parliamentary) Debate is a practical learning activity where participants think about a topic presented on the spot and express their opinions in English, rather than preparing a script in advance.

In addition to the ability to logically construct one's own opinion, it requires the thinking ability to accurately understand the opponent's arguments and respond flexibly on the spot.

This class aims to acquire the ability to "use English while thinking," not just the ability to "speak English correctly."
