“Attending KSDA was one of the best decisions I made for my debate career. In junior high, Ms. Luu and her dedicated coaches took me from not breaking at local tournaments to becoming the Extemporaneous Speaking State Champion, all within a year. As someone who has attended numerous debate programs both locally and online, I can confidently recommend KSDA to any aspiring young debater; their expertise, care, rigor, and experience are all unmatched.”
