ABOUT LEADERS ACADEMY
Roger Hatridge started the debate program at Seoul International School, which went on to win five of six national championships. With that success, several students and mothers encouraged Mr. Hatridge to start an academy so more students could learn to debate well. What started as a literature and debate program with just one teacher has expanded immensely. Our academy now has three distinct programs: Honors, Debate and Bridge. Find out more at our website, www.leadersacademy.com.
HONORS
The Honors program at Leaders Academy offers gifted students a chance to advance their English even further through thematic instruction. The reading/speaking teacher examines reading skills, written assessments, discussion, and public speaking. The writing teacher examines essay structure, grammar, sentence structure, and creative writing. This is NOT an ESL job, but an after-school program to keep advanced English speakers ahead in English.
DEBATE
Our Debate program offers students a chance to learn and excel at debate. Other academies claim to teach debate, but really just offer conversation time. Leaders Academy trains students to be competitive in debate. Our staff has more international debate coaching experience than any academy in Korea. Our successes are not just limited to debate, but also include speech competitions, mock trial, Model United Nations, model congress and acting.
BRIDGES
Because our programs are popular, but highly selective, we began offering a Bridges program at the start of 2011. For students that just barely miss our selection criteria, they go through a 3-6 month Bridges program to prepare them for Debate or Honors.
