Cards in this deck (6)
- 1—Stand Stright, No Fidgeting
When guests see that you're a bit wobbly, they might think you are nervous or don't care about the debate. - 2—Polite Word Usage
When you use words like Hate, Stupid, Dumb, it sounds really uneducated, no one wants an uneducated person having a responsible job
- 3—Great Appearances
Notice the word great, when debating a casual, yet professional look can help. Just don't show up in a stained up shirt.
- 4—Eye Contact to Audience
The audience wants to feel like your speaking to them, use eye contact like in a conversation.
- 5—Eye Contact to Opponent
Eye contact is also a beneficial skill facing your opponent, when you use eye contact, you give yourself a leg up, and it seems like you own your opponent.
- 6—Good Sportsmanship, If you win, awesome! Still congratulate your opposing side, fist bumps, and high fives, or just good game. If you lose, don't worry, it's not the end of the world, complement the winner, and practice more.
