About us
Youth leadership program to practice critical thinking, and conduct civil discussions.
We are group of parents and professionals who love our children and would like to help them to think critically. Especially now that our children live in an environment which is saturated with unvetted information like never before. Critical thinking is the foundation of classical education.
We believe that all children, regardless of their race, socio-economic status or gender, are all equally precious, and each one of them is blessed with unique talents and skills. We need to bring them up to reach their best, by training them to think critically, to analyze every option, to be able to draw the best conclusion, and present it in a civil manner. Yes, we also teach public speaking and presentation!
The format of our class is a mix of individual presentations using Toastmasters International techniques and a Socratic group discussion. This allows students to learn leadership, self-confidence and ability to exchange different opinions in a civil manner.
Our coaches are retired professionals from many disciplines, with experience in teaching and coaching young adults. Most importantly, we are parents, who are passionate to help children, to face the new era of abundant information and mis-information around them, by equipping them with critical thinking skills.
“Critical Thinking is the kind of thinking - about any subject, content, or domain – that improves itself through disciplined analysis and assessment. Analysis requires knowledge of the elements of thoughts; assessment requires knowledge of standards for thought.”
