In this paper aimed to show teaching principles and directions of debate based on the nature of debate. At first, I explore characteristics of debate as below; The debate · is a argumentation between positive participants and negative participants for problem solving. · is proceeded by some rules. · has not participants` agreement for problem solving. · persuade not opposite participant but audience. I search some present circumstances which distortions debate; ``debate=logic``, ``debate=quarrelling``, and ``teaching through debate=group discussion``. I insist some teaching principles of debate; 1) principal of reasonable communication method, 2) principal of solution to the conflict by harmony, 3) principal of resonable development of thinking power. Finally, I argued the teaching directions of debate; The teacher should 1) follow the nature of debate, 2) make all students experience debate, 3) be thought about debate, at first, 4) teach debate systematically, 5) structuralize the teaching method, 6) teach together the debate through digital media.
