Testimonials
Steph was an enthusiastic and engaging speaker. She had the student's imagination captured within the first five minutes. Steph was an absolute delight to listen to; and gave the audience lots of motivation to begin writing. We would definitely recommend her to others and use her again at our school.
Cleveland District State High School - August, 2017Steph was energetic, funny and worked hard to get all the students involved. She varied her approach well to suit the different age groups (including an upper primary cohort, which is really not her primary audience). She met our expectations and we would definitely use her again and recommend her to others.
Capalaba State College - August, 2017Today went really well; Steph was great - the kids learnt a lot.
