WHERE HAS THE STORYLADY BEEN?
“We immensely enjoyed your imaginative animal stories and the creative manner in which you brought them to life. The added use of puppetry was amazing! As a certified and experienced teacher, I thought that your choice of stories were quite age-appropriate for this group. Your professionalism and gentle interactions with the students was excellent. I was so pleased with your 45-minute presentation that I will surely keep you in mind for future school programs, and I have recommended you to the students' parents for other events. Please keep-up with your creative and unique business, as the important art of storytelling tends to fade in this technology based world of ours!” (Kindergarten teacher, Aurora)
“Thank you for your wonderful performance at the Book Festival.” (Kama Reading and Cultural Events Manager, World Literacy of Canada)
“Catherine’s stories are aimed at exactly the right level for all her different-aged audiences. The story content is very appropriate for the elementary language programs. Our students were enthralled! I would highly recommend Catherine be made a part of any school’s balanced language program.”(Elementary school teacher/librarian, Schomberg)
“Students were better able to appreciate the beauty and rhythm of language, to improve their listening skills and develop self-esteem. I highly recommend Ms. Kentridge as an interactive and highly effective storyteller and educator.”(Elementary teacher, Aurora)
“You put your heart into your performance. You were an inspiration”(Elementary teacher, Newmarket)
