TESTIMONIALS

What Our Students Say

Every lecture, piece of feedback, and homework assignment Jason gave during Team Canada training was a product of hours of reflection and lots of tournament experience. The way he conceptualizes debate rounds is mind-blowing.

Vivian Zhang, Harvard University

Team Canada 2019

Jason has had a tremendous impact on my success as a debater and on my academic and intellectual development generally. Even after participating in the World Schools Debating Championship and many other prestigious international competitions, I have never come across a judge or a coach with a gift for teaching quite like Jason’s. He combines a brilliant analytical mind, a talent of communicating complex thoughts and lessons in a digestible manner, and a commitment to bringing out the best in each student. And beyond these outstanding coaching skills, he has instilled in me a great passion for debating, and a love for questioning and thinking.

Matthew Anzarouth, Harvard University

Team Canada 2019-2021

From the moment Jason began coaching me, I was blown away from the depth and nuance of feedback he would instantly generate. Jason has been the best thing that could’ve ever happened to my debating—reshaping my understanding of the activity, enhancing my love for it and allowing me to improve beyond my highest hopes.
