What They Say

‘Sara Westbrook is an excellent presenter for students of any age in a time when students need guidance and direction the most. Recently at St. John Chrysostom she spoke to students about feelings of anxiety and being overwhelmed. Sara was wonderful with students in reassuring them that it is natural to have a variety of emotions. The strategies she provided to assist students in acknowledging and processing feelings were engaging, interactive and maintained their interest. The follow up activities for teachers to use in their classrooms were appropriate and useful and assisted teachers in carrying on Sara's message.’ Sulinda Cerqueti, Administrator

'Engaging, impactful, powerful, talented...Sara is all this and more! Staff and students loved her motivational virtual presentation which included her wonderful singing. They really connected with her personal experiences and the important life lessons she had to offer around mental health and self-confidence. She left our school community feeling empowered especially at a time where big emotions are a regular occurrence. I would recommend her for all age groups.' Grace Viggiani, Teacher-Librarian, St. Julia Billiart

‘Sara provided an uplifting Virtual Presentation for our K-8 students by sharing with them practical strategies, and relatable experiences that will build character and resilience. It was a delight for her to energize and motivate our students to be a better version of themselves and not to give up, despite the current climate we are going through.’ Tracy Stuart, St. Paul, Newmarket
