Introduction :

Eva was a very vocal child at a young age, hence why public speaking and debating were not only her favourite hobbies but also her parents’ best remedy for the endless cacophony at home.

For 6 years, debate has been one of her biggest mentors. It has been a lens through which she learned about the world and herself. She hopes that her students will gain as much from debate as she did. Eva believes that learning is most productive in a collaborative and supportive environment. From her classroom, she trusts that her students will learn to critically engage their surroundings while building lifelong friendships.
