“Matt, with his creative style and manner came to our school to deliver his assembly and workshop. We didn’t know what to expect but was overjoyed by his engaging stories. Our children particularly the boys could relate to his childhood stories and took inspiration from Matts enthusiasm. In class, my class were totally enthralled and produced some great short stories we have used as part of their assessment folders. We found Matt to be great throughout.”

“Matthew conducted a session to a small group of Year 12 Students about CV writing using different techniques and ways to capture employers attention.  Some very interesting points raised in an engaging session.  Thank you.”

“It was a pleasure to meet such an individual as yourself (‘all in the best possible taste’ Kenny Everett 1970’s!!) You had your own style and presence which captivated your audience. The content of your presentation was relevant, motivational and a refreshing change to the run of the mill CV writing stuff we often encounter. I would dearly love to do some joined up work in the future.”

HEAD OF CAREERS, CROSSLEY HEATH GRAMMAR

“At Beech Hill we believe that keeping reading and writing high profile is at the forefront of a successful curriculum. What’s more, we instil a love and enjoyment of books into our pupils to create a positive reading ethos. Using Matthew’s expertise in two targeted year groups has enabled us to provide provision above and beyond expectations. Matthew’s delivery was second to none and he communicated in a way that inspired our pupils and gave a purpose for learning. Sharing his successes and problems from personal experiences allowed him to get onto the children’s wavelength and his passion and commitment to overcome any barriers shone through. The children were left feeling motivated, enthused and eager to improve their reading and writing, with many of the pupils taking Matthew’s writing tasks home to continue, edit and improve. The writing experiences Matthew delivered were fun, engaging and accessible for all groups of children, thus, all pupils were on task throughout. All children enjoyed the workshop and Beech Hill would certainly recommend him to other schools.”

MARK SHARP

LITERACY CO-ORDINATOR, BEECH HILL PRIMARY

“Due to time restraints we gave Matt a fairly short assembly time but wow did he create an impression. The 150 Year 11 students were engrossed and I’m sure now will soon be marketing their own brand! We look forward to working together soon.”

NICK O'CONNOR

HEAD OF CAREERS, CROSSLEY HEATH GRAMMAR

“Working with Matthew on our event was a really positive experience in a number of ways. Firstly he was very professional to work with, giving us lots of information on his talk and it’s content, and discussed how to best to fulfill our requirements with his material, making changes when needed. Secondly his workshop was fun, interactive and informative, keeping the audience engaged throughout with the perfect balance of presentation and practical exercises. This I have rarely seen happen in similar length workshops- the audience did not become bored! Finally, and just as important as the two previous points, Matthew himself was lovely to work with as he was approachable and friendly.”

HELEN OTS

EVENT ORGANISER, FAIL FORWARD

“Matthew came into school to work with a group of Year 13 6th Form students who were planning on looking for work or apprenticeships as opposed to applying to University. His session, about creative CV writing, encouraged them students to think outside the box when applying for vacancies and also what they can do to make themselves stand out from the crowd. It stressed the need for students to market themselves in a competitive world. Matthews unique take on CV writing challenged the students to think about what they can do to stand out. Feedback from students was good and they went away from the session with new ideas about what they can do.”

LEANNE PRYOR

CAREERS CO-ORDINATOR, BROOKSBANK HIGH SCHOOL

“Matthew is a natural storyteller. Articulating the journeys, mistakes and learnings of entrepreneurs in a simple way that makes it accessible to all. His passion and enthusiasm to share others’ stories is infectious.”

PETE BAILEY

FOUNDER, FAIL FORWARD

“I want to thank Matthew Turner, our host at the Digital Olympus conference. He was a worthy contributing partner in all of the workshop conversations. Moreover, he is an empathetic interviewer and an all-around good fellow. It was a pleasure to work with him!”

ALEXANDRA TECHALOVA

FOUNDER & HOST, DIGITAL OLYMPUS

“Matthew really inspired our new postgraduate students during induction with his talk on ‘Successful Mistakes”, opened their eyes to what entrepreneurship is really all about”.
