Nathan Schwarz-Lee
Coach
Introduction :
Hi there! As a B.C. certified teacher, I believe in all my students, and that they can all succeed in debate with the right guidance. I like coaching because I get to be a part of students’ journey to become better debaters and people. My students become better at writing, presenting, and working together in my class. They are also generally confident and speak up. I welcome your child to try debate and/or join my class!
