What Our Students Think!
Casebook
"I just had to drop you a note to express my gratitude for your incredible casebooks! Seriously, your casebook has been an absolute game-changer for me. With 3 resolutions, having your comprehensive resource has made diving into research and crafting cases so much smoother.
I've gotten sourcebooks from NIHD, Ethos, and Lasting Impact in the past, but yours is seriously the best!!! One of the things that struck me the most was the fantastic diversity among the authors of your sourcebook. It's incredible to see perspectives from all different regions of the nation. It really opened my eyes to a wide array of arguments and approaches that I might not have encountered otherwise.
I can only imagine the countless hours of hard work and passion you poured into creating these casebooks, and let me tell you, it hasn't gone unnoticed. You've truly outdone yourself! Keep up the amazing work, Charis! You're making a real difference in the debate community, and I'm incredibly grateful for it!"

Coaching
"This is my second year of LD and in all honesty, Ms. Charis is AMAZING! (Selfishly I wish I was her only student, but that would be an injustice to the LD community.) She is by far our family's favorite coach.
I was amazed at how quickly she could adapt to my style of teaching. From coaching students on the foundations of LD, to teaching them how to correctly execute impact calculus on oddly specific arguments, her coaching intellect and abilities are phenomenal. After my first meeting with her on revising my case and breaking down complex arguments, I went 6-0 at the following tournament. Our sessions have radically improved my understanding of various resolutions and her coaching style has provided me with an efficient way to structure my thoughts, cases, rebuttals, and questions.
If you're looking for a coach that can instruct you with patience and professionalism as well as someone who can coach you on a beginner, intermediate, or advanced level, the coaching sessions at Speaking with Grace are just for you."

Casebook
"I highly recommend using the Speaking with Grace casebook. This casebook helped me to make sure I had a full picture of the LD resolutions, it encouraged me to do some extra research on examples that I didn't know a whole lot about, and it gave me the tools necessary to communicate effectively in rounds."

Casebook
"Great head start for debate! These casebooks have really helped improve my understanding of the resolutions, and then lead me to write cases on my own. They also provide so much more than just cases. I especially like the arguments and response page, as well as the list of cross examination questions. I highly suggest looking into these casebooks."

Casebook
"This was my first year in LD and I really enjoyed it! I purchased Speaking with Grace's casebook for the National Security resolution and got really inspired by it. I ended up using an application from one of the cases and went 3-3 at my first LD tournament! I'm grateful for Charis' kindness and the reasonable prices for her resources and hope to use Speaking with Grace resources in the future!"
