Speech and Debate for Cross Examination and Questioning with Nathaniel Fair 

First, congratulations on your win! Second, thank you so much! Your support keeps this channel going! What state are you from by the way?

I’m from California

I am glad to hear it Shelby!

I have not found many good reading on the topic. You can go to debatingyouth.weebly.com to read my debate blogs

@@debatingyouth Thank you! I will

Thank you so much!

I will definitely work on that! Thanks so much! Your comment will be featured in the next video.

What questions do you have for extemp and impromptu? I am filming a video tomorrow..

I’d like to know about the differences and similarities between the two events, how a typical round goes down, and how to succeed in either one. I have some impromptu experience and little on Extemp, so I’d like to see them juxtaposed.

@@joselupechavez9203 will do!

Thanks!

Will do! I plan on getting a extemper from my school involved. And thanks!

Hey! Sorry if this is a little bit late. Asking them to address a point they didn’t during a speech would still be a strong question because it is likely they didn’t address the point because they couldn’t or ran out of time in their speech. However I recommend that you ask them to address one of your points to further your point. It is somewhat awkward when it is someone else’s point, especially when they have their hand raised for the questioning period as well (they might have wanted the speaker to address their point as well). For you’re second question, I would avoid asking for an example if the speaker has already given them. Mostly because it wouldn’t really faze them and they can just pull a stat that they already said. It’s not necessarily a bad question but it definitely isn’t a strong one. Unless that number is important to show whether the issue is as serious or not as serious as the speaker is making it seem. In that case use it as a point rather than just a clarification question (ex. What percent of plastic straws actually do go into the ocean? If the number is that low, shouldn’t we be focusing on more harmful and abundant plastics?)

@@deeksharachupalli7787 thank you very much

wouldn't it kinda benefit them to restate their argument?
