Prakhar is an avid public speaker and has been a self-driven student with a well-built history of research and debate since 6th grade. Prakhar's aim is to enhance his future career as a corporate lawyer by helping his community, learning to be a confident speaker in front of crowds of people, and having powerful research / critical thinking skills.
There are links at the bottom of this page that lead to different websites containing Prakhar's publications, debate information, as well as his non-profit organization.
I help other students through the beginning of their high school debate careers and publish short stories as well as independent books.
What do I do?
My work experience
01
Assistant Debate Coach
I help students to gain an in-depth understanding of various National debate topics so that they can compete in different tournaments
I help students with their presentation skills throughout practice debates based on my own practical learning and experience.
02
Interning
I helped other employees with their already ongoing cases/lawsuits in order to help them continue to be organized.
I answered client phone calls and answered questions that were related to all of the cases/lawsuits ongoing at the time.
03
Debate Judge
I point out the flaws in students' arguments and speaking styles that will help them in the future, in time for the actual tournaments.
I help tournaments in need of judging by filling in a spot of a judge that will allow them to have the tournament run smoothly and at the same time allow for all students to compete.
