Help your child speak up with confidence in just one day.
What your child takes away
A full day of real practice in front of a group.
In one day, your child gives 4 to 6 speeches in small groups and gets feedback right away. All in Spanish.
Speaking with confidence
They learn to stand tall, project their voice, and present an idea with a strong ending. Every piece of feedback starts with what went well, then moves to specific tips.
A structure for any speech
Introduction, example, conclusion. It's a simple outline your child can use for a class presentation, an interview, or when it's their turn to lead a group.
Confidence in and out of the classroom
We use debate as the practice: defending an idea, listening to the other side, and answering calmly. These skills help with speaking up in class and working on a team.
What a workshop day looks like
In total, your child gives 4 to 6 speeches in one day.

“Every future leader deserves a place to speak up — in their own language.”
What parents and students are saying.
“My daughter came in quiet. By week three, she was speaking in front of the group. I never thought something like this existed in Spanish.”
“I learned to defend my ideas without being scared. Now I speak up in class. My teachers keep asking what changed.”
“What surprised me wasn't that he learned to speak — it's that he found real friends there. By the third workshop they were already family.”

Our story
Founded by a student who saw what was missing.
At a debate tournament, Rahul, a high school student and competitive debater, noticed that almost no one was speaking Spanish. Spanish-speaking youth with a lot to say had nowhere to say it in their own language.
Instead of waiting for someone else to fix that, he organized the first workshop in Denver. Today SSDN has a team in Colorado and Nebraska.
