What should I learn to improve my speaking skills, critical thinking, and assertiveness?

I have a problem with elaboration sometimes. I want to improve my debating skills and reasoning. I want to be more confident, unambiguous and understood.

Sometimes when I ask questions on Quora or something, people ask because they don't understand the question, it's too vague, or ambigous. They say "be specific" or something.

I don't know if my culture has something to do with it so it would probably help if I give my background.

I grew up in a collectivistic, hierarchical, ultra-conformist culture. People are culturally low in self esteem and confidence. People are sometimes aggressive, sometimes passive, and then passive aggressive.

We aren't thought equality. We are exposed to sexism and classicism. We aren't thought individualism/individuality because it's "shameful." We obey hierarchy a lot even if the "upper hierarchy" are assholes.

I'm not "inferioring" my culture. I'm just personally "disgusted" by it.

But not everyone in a culture or society are conformists though. We got activists and so on.

And I also have problems with my childhood history that prevents me from having a healthy self-esteem.

Anyway, what specific subject or topic? Is there a program or a school about this?
