Hi

what online materials do you use to teach language to EFL students interested in practicing debate? e.g. linking phrases, opening expressions for rebuttals, etc.

Happy to get anything but free sites would be better.

NB I have been spending the better part of yesterday and today online researching debating sites but it's almost all teaching principles of and procedures for debates e.g. tennis debates, and I can find almost nothing on teachable language.

Thanks in advance

This one isn't too bad, either, for helping with the opening statement (after the issue at hand is presented):
