Testimonials
“Jeremy’s message was powerful and captured the students’ attention from beginning to end! He shared valuable information about stress, anxiety and overall mental wellness while blending humour and magic into his presentation. Overall, the presentation was fantastic and generated great conversations among students and staff in the days that followed.”
Dolores Edwards, Pearson Academy
“On Feb. 20, 2017, the students and staff of Heritage Collegiate in Lethbridge, were lucky enough to have Jeremy Bennett present at their school on the topics of stress and anxiety. From the beginning of his presentation you could hear a pin drop. Students and staff were certainly engaged in what he had to say. Not often are rural schools able to avail of such a super speaker who students can relate to. It is not just another talk about mental health, but Jeremy reveals his personal struggles with mental health challenges and provides practical techniques that have worked for him and others. His slideshow and magic help bring some comic relief during this very powerful presentation.
Comments from students, staff and parents were very positive and thought that presentations such as these are so worthwhile and should be provided more often. We need speakers who are dealing with or have overcome their personal struggles to show that there are things that individuals can do to help themselves and that is OK to seek out help from others.
Jeremy’s presentation was well polished, funny, informative and provided great strategies for those who are dealing with stress and anxiety and for those who want to help. We really need more presentations like this in our schools!”
Ms. Gail Burry, Guidance Counsellor, Heritage Collegiate
