Real Skills School Skips.

Nexus teaches what the classroom leaves out — the real, usable skills that decide how you're heard, how you're taken seriously, and how far you go. Hands-on. No lectures. Built to last outside the room.

Our mission

We teach what school doesn't.

School teaches you to pass exams. It rarely teaches you how to speak so people listen, hold your ground in a real conversation, or sound sure of yourself when it counts. Nexus exists to close that gap.

We run hands-on programs on the skills the real world actually runs on. No lectures, no theory you'll forget by next week — just focused sessions where students practise, get feedback, and walk out with something that holds up outside the room.

No lectures, just doing

Nobody learns to speak by being talked at. Every session is hands-on from the first minute.

Skills that transfer

Interviews, presentations, debates, first impressions — what students build here works everywhere it matters.

Progress you can see

Students don't take our word for it. They get direct feedback and watch themselves improve from one session to the next.

The program

Walk into committee ready.

Model United Nations rewards students who know the rules, do the research, and can speak under pressure. Most walk into their first conference having been taught none of it. The MUN Training Program changes that — step by step, in a room where mistakes are expected and feedback comes straight away.

  1. 01

    Rules of procedure

    Motions, points, the speakers' list, moderated and unmoderated caucuses — how a committee actually runs, so nothing on the day catches you off guard.

  2. 02

    Research & position papers

    Find your country's real stance on the topic and turn it into a clear, well-sourced position paper that chairs remember.

  3. 03

    Speeches that hold the room

    Opening speeches, rebuttals and points of information, delivered with a steady voice, a clear structure and no filler.

  4. 04

    Negotiation & caucusing

    Building blocs, finding allies, lobbying across the room — and knowing when to compromise and when to hold your ground.

  5. 05

    Resolution writing

    Preambulatory and operative clauses, sponsors, signatories and amendments — writing a resolution that can actually pass.

  6. 06

    Full mock committee

    Everything comes together in a complete simulated session, chaired like the real thing, followed by individual feedback.

Who trains you

Trained by the delegates who win — and the chairs who judge.

6+ awards

Top delegates in the country

Your trainers are among the strongest delegates in Lebanon, each with six or more awards, who have distinguished themselves at national and international conferences.

From the dais

Experienced chairs

You'll also learn from chairs — the people who run committees and grade delegates — so you know exactly what earns points and what costs them.

How the program runs

Step 1

Learn

Short, clear explanations of how MUN works and why — never a long lecture.

Step 2

Practise

Drills in pairs and small groups, with feedback on the spot.

Step 3

Simulate

A full committee session to test it all under real conditions.

Built around your conference.LAU, AUB, USJ, NDU or any other MUN — the program starts in November and runs until the conference you've signed up for, so your training lasts right up to the day you walk into committee. Between sessions you have 24/7 WhatsApp support with your trainers for any question, draft or speech.

One-on-one sessions

Prefer to train one-on-one?

Not everyone wants a group. One-on-one sessions pair you with a trainer who has won 6+ awards and serves on the dais as a chair — someone who knows exactly what wins in committee and what the people grading you look for. They work on you alone: your committee, your country, your speeches, at a pace that fits your conference.

$250 for 10 private sessions · installments available

From our first workshop

What students said.

Talk It Like You Mean It ran on September 26 at Metn Innovation Campus, Jdeideh. Here's how the students who took part described it.

Students and trainers holding their certificates at the end of the Talk It Like You Mean It workshop

The workshop was very interesting. I learned a lot in terms of tips and tricks for public speaking. The organization was really top-notch and the presenters did a great job explaining. It was very interactive and fun. I would repeat it again.

Shayane AzarParticipant

The workshop really went above and beyond my expectations. It was very interactive, which allowed me to not only learn about public speaking but to also put what I had learned into action. I recommend it to anyone willing to improve their public speaking skills.

Anthony YounesParticipant

Today's workshop was very nice and beneficial. The arguments, topics spoken, and advice given were essential for a person's communication skills and public speaking skills. The trainers' way of speaking and delivering ideas was beautiful to an extent it attracts you to listen more.

Jana KraykerParticipant

It was honestly so, so beneficial and engaging. The speakers were so wise and friendly, giving us honest and genuine tips. We laughed, and at the same time we were able to learn SO much. Thank you for this experience!

Celine NasrParticipant

The workshop was really interactive. I learned a lot and had lots of fun!

Jane Laudy DoumitParticipant

This experience was truly very informing and one I will treasure. The activities allowed us to not only challenge ourselves and work on our speaking and thinking skills, but to also meet new people and engage in meaningful conversations. I'm so grateful I got to be part of it and encourage everyone looking to improve their speaking skills to try it out.

Sandra SemaanParticipant

The session was very interesting and insightful. It allowed me to discover new techniques for communicating more clearly and effectively. I particularly appreciated the practical activities and the valuable advice given by professionals. Overall, it was a very positive and beneficial experience that will undoubtedly help me improve my future oral presentations.

Hayk TorossianParticipant

When I first applied to the workshop, I was hesitant because I didn't really know what to expect. However, it turned out to be a really valuable and enjoyable experience. I loved the activities that allowed us to interact with each other and get to know people from different backgrounds while learning skills that will always stick with me. It helped me become more confident when speaking in front of others and taught me how to use my voice, pauses, and breathing better. I'm really grateful I got to be part of this experience!!

Tara SakrParticipant

The workshop was very beneficial and creative. I really loved how the ideas were distributed among us, and how we discovered and experienced what is the real meaning behind the ideas and how to practice that in several ways. It was a very creative, beneficial and memorable experience — I truly enjoyed every part of it.

Questions

Before you register.

Can't find your answer here? Message us on WhatsApp and we'll get back to you.

Who can join the program?

Any student aged 13 to 18. No MUN experience is needed — the program starts from the basics and builds up to a full committee session.

I've done MUN before. Is this still for me?

Yes. Experienced delegates use the program to sharpen their speeches, negotiation and resolution writing, and the mock committee pushes everyone, whatever their level.

Who are the trainers?

Experienced MUN delegates — among the top in the country, each with six or more awards and recognised at national and international conferences — together with experienced chairs, the people who run committees and grade delegates.

Which conferences does it prepare me for?

All of them — LAU, AUB, USJ, NDU and every other university or school MUN. Tell us which conference you're going to when you register, and we'll keep it in mind.

When and where does it take place?

The program is 10 sessions. It starts in November and runs until the MUN conference you've signed up for, so how long it lasts depends on your conference. The exact date of every session is sent to you after you register. The venue is still being decided between Jdeideh and Zouk Mosbeh, and a Google Maps location will be shared with everyone taking part.

Can I reach the trainers between sessions?

Yes. Delegates in the program have 24/7 WhatsApp support with their trainers — send a question, a draft of your position paper or a recording of your speech whenever you need help.

What are one-on-one sessions?

Ten private sessions with a trainer who has won 6+ awards and serves on the dais as a chair, built entirely around you and your conference: position paper review, speech practice and preparation for your committee. They cost $250 in total, payable at registration or in three installments. Choose "One-on-one sessions" in the registration form and we'll contact you to schedule them.

Can I cancel and get a refund?

Yes — cancel at least 4 days before the first session of the program (or 3 days before a workshop) and you get a full refund. Later cancellations aren't refunded. Once you've attended the first session, you're committed to the full $150 — leaving the program early doesn't cancel the remaining installments. To cancel before the program starts, just message us on WhatsApp or by email. Full details are in our Terms & Conditions.

How much does it cost, and how do I pay?

The full program is $150 for 10 sessions, paid when you register. If you can't pay it all at once, you can split it into three installments of $50: the first when you register, the second at the 1st session and the third at the 5th session. Once you start the program, the full $150 is due even if you stop attending. One-on-one sessions are $250 for 10 sessions, paid at registration or in three installments: $90 at registration, $80 at the 1st session and $80 at the 5th session.
