Our program will last 4 weeks, and classes will take place online on Zoom three times a week. Each class will be 90 minutes long from 7:00 pm to 8:30 pm, and will cost $29 per student. There is also the option of paying for all classes upfront at a lower total price of $325.
We have two sessions, which will follow the same curriculum and use the same instructors:
Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday from July 29 to August 24.
and Monday, Wednesday, Friday from July 30 to August 25.
On August 24-25, there will be a class-wide debate tournament where students can showcase everything they learned. Afterwards, we will spend the last few sessions debriefing the tournament and giving individual feedback!
Some students may wish to switch between different sessions. Please keep in mind that if you register past June 20, we may not be able to place you in your requested program schedule.
Our pay-per-class plan costs $29 per class, per student. Each payment can be made at your leisure, as long as the payment for a class is made before the start of the class.
Our upfront plan costs $325 for all classes, which will need to be paid before the start of the first class.
Our formal payment deadline is July 23. After this deadline you may still pay and attend the class, but you are not guaranteed the class placement that you might prefer, as we will have a lower capacity for students and less time to determine student placement.
The option to switch between different payment plans will be open until the second class, after you have tried out our first class.
Refund policy: If you have already paid upfront and discover that you are unable to attend the camp, we will refund 50% given our start date is imminent and we have already planned curriculum details for your child. After the first class, there will be no refunds.*
*If you encounter a serious issue such as a medical emergency that prevents your child from attending classes, we will evaluate the situation and our policy will be more flexible.
