Jonathan Friesen%27s Speaking Topics

Are you a teacher or administrator interested in transforming a school day into an unforgettable experience?

Consider inviting me to your school or school event!

Whether you're looking for a large group presenter, or a small group workshop leader, (or you have an entirely different need. . .surprise me!) I help students of all writing levels locate the story that they alone can tell.

 

High schools presentations/workshops include the following topics:

 

Middle School and Elementary presentations/workshops include versions of the above, as well as:

 

I also speak to educators on the following issues, drawing from fourteen years of public school teaching experience:

 

If you want a lecturer, I'm not your speaker. If how things are is good enough, I'm not your man. But if you want to see a difference in your students' attitudes toward writing and be challenged in your own thinking, I'd love to talk to you about a school visit.

My honorarium depends on the number of events you'd like me to facilitate. You would also be expected to cover transportation, lodging, and meal expenses, if your school is out of driving distance from the Twin Cities Metro area.

I have many literacy and writing helps presentations for parents in addition to those listed above.  I love meeting parents! So please consider planning a parent event in addition to those during the school day.

Finally, be advised that I will be selling and signing books while I'm with you, but it will be your responsibility to order those from Penguin, USA. Should you decide to bring me to your school, I will send you detailed instructions on how to do this!

 

I hope to hear from you soon!
