What people are saying
Versatile across all stages Sue captures and holds her audience’s attention from the get-go. As a former teacher, Sue knows how to pitch, pace and present to perfection. Staff and students were equally enthralled and impressed. Five stars from us at Yarrawarrah School. Nailed it!
Deb was a very engaging speaker and performer. The children really enjoyed the visit and have been madly borrowing her books. Deb pitched her talk to each year level and managed to have everyone laughing and learning at their level - including the teachers.
All communications with Speakers Ink Agency were effective and prompt. Staff were very pleasant to deal with.
Belinda’s presentation style was very suitable for our students. She connected well with all year levels and understood how to engage them. I was very impressed with her style personable and very approachable for students. I would welcome Belinda again to speak to our students.
I highly recommend Maria as a speaker. Our students found her presentation interesting and engaging, and I was impressed with the way Maria held their attention throughout.
I am very pleased to report that we had a wonderful experience with the 2 speakers that we booked. Both Peter (Carnavas) and Pat (Flynn) worked well together, engaged the students and when they broke into smaller year level groups coped really well and tailored the lessons to suit the students.
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.
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.
We would like to thank Anne E. Stewart for her wonderful storytelling incursion this morning. Our grade 2 students were absolutely enthralled by her stories, especially the string stories. Following her session, we had a fantastic discussion back in the classroom about different ways of telling stories, and I know my students are going to take many of her ideas as a springboard for their own learning.
Our children were fascinated by the methods Chrissy wrote, illustrated and published her magical picture book. At each stage of her journey in her presentation a child opened a surprise sparkly box. They saw first-hand examples of the material she used in her beautiful illustrations. Their interest was captured by an insight into her creativity and her encouragement to work at what they loved to do, no matter what hurdles they met on the way.
A.J.’s willingness to adapt on the fly and adjust her schedule was paramount to the success of the session. It was absolutely brilliant in terms of content and was perfectly tailored to their assessment task. As a teacher, I garnered insider tips and tricks to improve young students’ writing and the early feedback from some of my top students was fantastic. In fact, one teacher in the session already shared a writing task to the teaching team based on her presentation today. Thank you, A.J., for [...]
