What people are saying
Aleesah was an engaging an interesting speaker and the children really enjoyed her presentations. Her writer's workshop worked well with the year level and the students got a lot out of it.
It was really really good and I liked going through the photos. She took a really good photo and we all didn't know it was a fake! I enjoyed that she had a lot of description about how she made her three books come together. She told us about the prehistoric times and the characters. It was fun. Jo gave us tips for our writing and it was nice to know that new and different stuff.
Jan was great with the K-2 audience we booked her for. Lots of videos and visuals, plus they all love animals. We ran 45 minute sessions, which was about right with this age group. Lots of back up activities available on the website too so it worked really well.
"There were lots of positive comments from participants, praising Dimity’s lively and clear presentation, her creative writing ideas and helpful suggestions. I’d highly recommend Dimity as a presenter, especially for Primary Schools in the area of creative writing." "I found the material that was presented has already been very useful. I have implemented the RAFT activity as a warm up in the Learning Enhancement Centre… and several of my students could not wait to commence the task. Many of thes [...]
Students had the opportunity to implement their creative writing skills during Matt Porter’s workshop. The students were enthralled and totally engaged during the entire session, which catered to all abilities. His activities and tips achieved immediate results and the kids were soon writing far more descriptive and exciting stories. What a brilliant visit from an up-and-coming young author. We hope to see him back here in the near future.
Thank you very much for arranging Rebecca to speak at our High Tea. You were right - she was perfect! Her talk appealed to both the girls and the mums which isn't an easy thing to do. Rebecca targeted her speech perfectly - the humour had us all laughing and her insights into teenage life were very relevant. I had a lot of very positive feedback from people who attended our high tea.
Paula’s presentation was greatly appreciated by participants, who found it very inspiring and useful.
Once again Speakers Ink provided a wonderful service. You are my first point of call for organising speakers when I need to. Speakers Ink does a great job and your costs are very reasonable given what is delivered. I do look forward to working with you again.
We were fortunate to have Gwyneth and Megan present to our students here at All Saints as part of our biannual Livewire Festival this year. The ladies presented information about their books The Travel Adventures of PJ Mouse, in particular the Queensland story. Their presentations were engaging and interesting. They really inspired students to reflect and write about their own travels. This impact continued throughout the semester. We would certainly welcome them back to our school.
An excellent day. Such a great experience for students to get writing, and to receive instant feedback on their work. Phillip’s insights and presentation were very helpful – it is so good for students to hear directly from a professional author! I also came away inspired to get writing!
