An engaging speaker and the feedback from staff and students was very positive. We would book Aleesah again and recommend her to others.

"Gaye Chapman brings a different dimension to the illustrator session. Her multi-sensory games give the children a chance to fully participate in activities leading them to draw without constraints. Children of all ages enjoy her approach, particularly being so hands-on and using the senses of sight, sound, touch and taste to inspire them to draw. Her sessions with senior art students were highly appreciated with the students responding to her creative methods. They particularly enjoyed being ab [...]

Susy Boyer did an interactive chalk pastel workshop with our class 1 and 2 children. I had been to a workshop with Susy in previous years at another school and thought of her instantly when organizing a drawing workshop with young children. Susy is very professional and teaches the children with a calm and patient manner. She was well received by teachers and children, who all got more than they were expecting from the workshop and I would be happy to use Susy’s services again.

Our Prep students loved Serena. She read one of her books and conducted a drawing workshop. The students really enjoyed learning new techniques about how to draw characters with expression. Every one of them walked away afterwards with a smile on their face and some wonderful drawings. Serena has a lovely bubbly personality and was thoroughly entertaining and engaging.

Katherine was an entertaining speaker and our students enjoyed her presentation and workshop. I would recommend her and Speakers Ink, as both were professional, friendly, and excellent for our school.

Kerry did a fantastic session with the children, she contacted the library before the event to clarify our expectations of the day / event and to gather information on the target audience. She was really great.

Jonathan was great with the boys. He read to them, explained his writing and illustrating processes and then invited the boys to draw ideas that he could use in his new book. The boys were totally engaged for the session.

Al the teachers commented on her professionalism and her ability to interact with all age groups. She was fabulous.

Assisted us to change dates at last minute, professional as always.

Kate and Jol were so engaging and tailored their presentations perfectly for our lower and upper primary groups. Our students and staff are still raving about Kate and Jol and I've had many parents tell me their children went home and talked about how amazing it was for days after. Kate and Jol were so friendly and a joy to work with and I would highly recommend them to any school looking for a hilarious and enthusiastic incursion for their students!

James Roy is a fabulous story teller. He had our year 7 & 8's enthralled. Staff and students enjoyed the day and we would welcome James back any time.

Western Cape College Mapoon Campus was delighted to welcome illustrator Simon Deshon, also known as Siggo, who shared his creativity and passion for art through a series of engaging illustration workshops with our Kindergarten to Year 6 students. Simon captivated students by showing how small changes to a character’s face, such as adjusting eyebrows, eyes, or a smile that can powerfully express a wide range of emotions. From joy and excitement to surprise and wonder, students discovered how the [...]

The children and staff are still talking about your visit and your books are flying out the library from students and teachers alike! Your teacher notes have been passed on and gratefully received. We certainly will recommend you to anyone looking for a speaker and I will happily forward on a review for you. I asked the staff for any feedback and everything was positive. Quite honestly it’s the best author talk we’ve had! I have never seen the kids so engaged before, especially the older studen [...]
