What people are saying
The workshop was engaging and the boys were immediately hands-on.
Rochelle is the perennially most-requested speaker at our annual Showcase for authors and aspiring writers. She brings a friendly tone, lively interaction and a wealth of valuable information to all sessions, whether as a stand-alone presenter or as part of a panel.
After Kathmandu announced the acquisition of Rip Curl, Tim did a magnificent job bringing “The Rip Curl Story” to life at our Kathmandu management conference. He was inspiring, full of humour and very knowledgeable sharing the essence of Rip Curl and its founders. The entire management team – around 70 team members – had a great evening listening to Tim. We are even more excited about partnering up with an iconic brand like Rip Curl after Tim’s presentation.’
Cath’s passion for writing is so infectious – certainly some of the best feedback we’ve had on a speaker.
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.
Lisa’s presentation was highly engaging, entertaining and informative. A fun and dynamic speaker great at plugging into kid’s imaginations.
I wanted to let you know about the success of the Writers’ block event, at Robina branch library and auditorium last Saturday. It was such a good day and the feedback we received on the speakers was overwhelmingly positive. Venero was very engaging, great to work with, and pitched his presentation perfectly for the event. He made it so easy for City Libraries to look good. Thanks for your assistance in finding excellent speakers to make this event so successful.
Speakers Ink are always very helpful in booking speakers. Very professional service.
It was so lovely having you here. The girls really loved it and you had a wonderful disarming way with them. Thank you so much.
Richard Yaxley worked with our Year 4, 5 and 6 students on Tuesday, 13 September. He was very professional and very easy to get along with. The students were really enthusiastic about his visit and responded positively to the workshop he gave. Richard has a great energy when he works with the kids and they really loved listening to him and contributed a lot to his questioning. I would recommend Richard to work with students of this age group without any hesitation. I was very impressed with [...]
Thank you for the work you did with our girls yesterday. Students and staff alike loved your sessions, and all your books have flown out of the library doors this morning to be used in classrooms. Thank you so much!
Tannya was generous with her time and flexible with her presentation. The children were engaged throughout the sessions and came away with a successful drawing. She used kid friendly language, her drawing instruction was simple and appropriately step by step, very interactive, her displays were great and she coped well with the vagaries of technology. She has a different illustrative style to most others which provides breadth of experience for our children. Sydney school, 2024
