“Tanya has given a number of talks at St Mary’s School Ascot to parents and pupils from Year 8 to Upper VI over the last two years. Tanya has addressed a variety of topics including social media envy, privacy and safety, internet addiction and building a positive online profile. We have found Tanya’s talks to be clear, current, insightful and well received by both pupils and parents who have found them very relevant. I would highly recommend Tanya as a speaker in schools.”

“Tanya talked to our Year 10s on internet addiction and managing their digital lives, her talk was really informative and engaging! I would definitely recommend her to other schools looking for a speaker on the subject.”
PSHE Coordinator, Balcarras School, Cheltenham
“Tanya’s presentation on Managing your Digital Footprint was perceptive and revealing, delving into current issues such as internet addition, dealing with your brand online and how other people see you, as well as the distortion of reality on social media. The Lower VI students found it informative and thoroughly engaging.”

Parent, Senior school talk
“Tanya kick-started our Year 6 ‘Stepping into Business’ project with a thought-provoking yet entertaining talk. The girls were enraptured from the very beginning and were fascinated to learn more about entrepreneurship and how to succeed in business. Tanya is an inspiring role model for the girls and we would have no hesitation in recommending her to other schools or ask her to be involved in future projects.”
