Why Athens:

• An innovative curriculum that is meticulously planned, relentlessly focused on concept mastery, and goes far beyond traditional curriculum.
• Outstanding teachers - we only hire the best. Our teachers come from the likes of Yale, Stanford, Berkeley, etc.
• More value. In addition to your primary 2 hours a week class, we give students supplemental lessons (Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday).
• Extra sessions before tournaments. In addition to the weekly supplemental lessons, we provide more extra sessions before big tournaments to help students prepare. This is one of the reasons Athens does so much better than other programs at tournaments.
• The best results in the Bay Area. Athens won almost every major tournament this past year. Our success has come from such a deep pool of students and across all levels - elementary debate, novice, junior varsity, and varsity.
• Fair tournament fees. We only charge cost and don't believe in profiting off of tournaments. The community.
• Culture is of utmost importance at Athens. We spend a lot of time cultivating a culture that is: positive, nurturing, fun, and deeply supportive. We loved hearing so many students last year use the term "Athens Family".
• Countless hours of pre-recorded video lessons on our Athens Debate Online platform.
