About Nilufer
Nilufer has been a competitive speech and debater since 6th grade. She believes deeply in the dual powers of rigorous logic and oratorical persuasion. Arguments should be robustly defended and beautifully presented. As a coach, Nilufer believes that the skills learned from speech and debate are valuable irrespective of a win or a loss, but she also understands the thirst for victory and will do everything she can to help her students accomplish their goals!
