Very professional and very patient

-Brianna S.

Savon was one of my earliest mentors when I began debating, at nearly 12 years old. As an older team member he was revered for his debate skills, but more importantly, he was valued for his leadership and teaching spirit. He voluntarily took less experienced debaters under his wing, teaching us how to engage in complex and intellectual converse while reminding us to remain confident in our words and our composure. His training allowed me, at 14 years old, to speak confidently about foreign policies, the financial climate and social constructs. Moreover, my experience with Savon had a lasting impact on my growth and career pursuits. I have the ability to articulate my thoughts clearly to others, to think quickly even in a pressuring environment, and be confident in who I am and my value.
