Built on authentic debate language used in real discussion formats such as Middle Ground Jubilee, this resource trains students to participate in debates as they would in real professional and academic contexts.

The material includes 90+ formal and semi-formal phrases that students can actively use to express opinions, support arguments, respond to opposing viewpoints, structure discussions, and gain time to think while speaking.

While the format is debate-based, the language practiced here develops core high-level speaking skills needed across advanced communication.

These skills are especially relevant for international speaking exams, where candidates must discuss ideas with a partner, justify their opinions, and react to different viewpoints.

The resource also includes a Kahoot quiz to quickly check and review the phrases.
