School Speakers: Inspiring, Educating, and Motivating Students.
Can You Hear Me Now has been booking motivational speakers in schools for seventeen years now. Many school speakers love kids so much that they really only want to speak in schools. Motivational speakers are inspirational impactors who know that each student is just one step away from failure or success, and they invest their lives to help them become successful.
Much more money can be earned by speaking in corporations. But these men and women give their lives to earn less and inspire students! There are so many benefits to school assemblies. Students love the energy, passion and interactive effects of this excitement!

When choosing school speakers
It is always best to choose one that has a promo video. But not just any promo video. The video should show the speaker speaking in front of students. So they will not be showing you what they do. They will actually be doing it…SPEAKING!
And make sure that they are very interesting! Watch the students’ faces in the video. And if you are hiring an school speaker to motivate your staff, MAKE SURE THAT HE OR SHE IS VERY INTERESTING AND THAT YOUR STAFF NEEDS AND WANTS TO HEAR THEIR PROFOUND MOTIVATION! Away with boring school speakers!
Testimonials from Satisfied Student
“The night before you came to our school I wrote my suicide note and planned to kill myself the next day after saying bye to my friends. I just want you to know that you really impacted my life and helped me decide suicide is not the way to go. I’ve been struggling to find my identity for a year now. It’s nice to know that I’m not alone. Every day is a battle, but because of your story I’m going to keep fighting. Thank you.”
– High School Student
“You went to my daughter’s school about a month ago, and you honestly changed her life. She’s only 13 and I had no idea how bad she felt about herself and how stressed she was until after that day. She came home and told me she was done trying to impress everyone at school, and done trying to be someone she wasn’t. Since then, she is a completely different girl. She’s no longer insecure and shy. Her grades and attitude have been amazing since then. I don’t know what all you did that day, but I hope you continue helping other kids the way you did mine. From the bottom of my heart, thank you! Oh, and you autographed her wrist, and I couldn’t get her to wash it off for 2 weeks! Lol”
“Hey Austin, when you talked about bullying it made me realize I have been the one bullying someone, and putting them down to make them feel bad. Your message helped me stop doing that because we never know what someone is dealing with. I want to be nice and help people like you do.”
Most of the details for what your group wants can be written out in the contract…what type of stage they will be on, what type of microphone they like to use, what electronics they may need and what they need on stage, such as water or any other supplies. Our Globetrotters need a basketball!
– Mother of Middle School Student
“A couple weeks ago you were at my school talking about trying your hardest to achieve something. Honestly I didn’t believe you, but I wanted to test it. I struggle in math, so I started asking questions and practicing at home just like you said you did to get better at soccer. My math grade went from a 46% to a 76%, and I can never thank you enough!”
– Middle School Student
“I want to thank you. I’ve long struggled with depression and anxiety. As a person who stands out I tend to attract hurtful comments (and sometimes even physical abuse) and it can make me feel alone. Listening to your speech gave me hope. I could relate on many of the topics, and it just helps to know there is someone out there who has overcome the battle.”

Challenges and Solutions for School Speakers
Can You Hear Me Now is a motivational and inspirational organization that places trained mindset and mental health school speakers that provide group, as well as one-on-one coaching to both faculty and students. We take each person on a journey of self-discovery and help to connect them with resources and tools for positive self-development.
To learn more on how we are changing the game on mental health in schools just like yours, our website shows our curriculum for great motivational messages and coaching!
Assemblies are a fantastic start to huge trajectory changes. But the “bread and butter” is when our “Journey Coaches” or speakers can walk students through our hero’s journey
Many students never have any caring adult that talks just to them or even listens to them. We have to value our students, reaching them with Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs. We will turn the tide with at-risk students when we send speakers in to help them, and journey coach them.
How much does it cost to hire a school speaker?
Each speaker charges their own amount. The ranges are from $300.00 to $1500.00 per assembly. Can You Hear Me Now is known to charge less than most Speakers Bureaus!
Our guys would do it for free if they had no bills or if they were sponsored! They love students so much and want to bring them hope and great motivational messages!
Conclusion
Your students will love our speakers because of their love, care and relevant messages!
Choose the right motivational school speakers for students and they can make a good positive impact on the school assembly.
