It was quite good. But the speakers are too personal, some of them are sexists :-))) and speak not on the motion. I hope they will improve and become perfect speakers in the nearest future. :-)))))))))))

Thank you for your comment. Debating culture has not been cultivated in Russian students. And here is a good chance not only to express your own viewpoint but to keep to the subject, to be clear with your arguments, to develop your argumentation logically and at the same time to respect your opponent.
I hope every participant will develop these skills alongside with their speaking skills improvement.
