Speaking with Confidence
Most people don’t want to even try speech and debate because they are scared
of the public speaking aspect. That eventually goes away, and you’re left with overall
better communicating skills and confidence.”
Samantha Nava
San Jac debate team member, and silver medalist Phi Rho Pi National Forensic
Organization National Tournament
When Samantha Nava entered the world of debate, she was terrified to speak in
front of others. She performed her first debates with a “fake it ‘till you make it”
attitude. But through hard work, practice, and the mentorship of others, she found
her voice and confidence.
