Virtual School

“Daniel is a motivated speaker to teenagers on a range of different contemporary issues affecting our students. He has strong interpersonal skills which is reflected in his practical and informative talks. I highly recommend Daniel Merza if you would like a speaker with strong knowledge, great presentation skills and a person genuine in helping our next generation”.

“Our students got a huge amount out of it. Highly recommend”.

“Brilliant. I thought it was just going to be a talk but Daniel made it interactive. They were using the chat function. Really engaging, really diverse with the videos, the chat, and the polls. Perfect. Recommend.”

“I learned about the monkeys and strategies to deal with bullying. I’d definitely recommend it to other schools.”

“Biggest learning was the five steps for effective study planning. Very helpful. I would definitely recommend it to others”.

“Very helpful. Biggest takeaway was to focus on finding common ground with people to help make new friends. I would definitely recommend this to other schools.”

“My biggest takeaway was learning about the 7 ways to tackle procrastination.”

“Very helpful and informative. It provided me with a better understanding of how to set effective goals.I’d encourage every single school to experience this because you are giving us directions on how to focus on improving ourselves and how to plan for our future.”

“Awesome. Excellent content and clear messages not only for my child, but I took away a lot too. Would absolutely recommend it to other schools.”

“It was amazing and cleared so many questions I had. I loved the polls and Q & A, and learned about the 5 steps to be an effective learner. Highly recommended!”

“Awesome. Loved it, especially meditation, types of fear, and that danger is real and fear is just a perspective.”

“The session was quite informative and straight to the point and the biggest takeaway would be how people perceive fear with fear being a choice rather than an emotion.”

“I loved it. Very engaging. My biggest takeaway was the idea of personal momentum and getting started to gain motivation. I also learned about the importance of scheduling our work and not letting our emotional state impact our ability to get it done. I would recommend these sessions to schools.”

“I found the session quite engaging and learnt a lot about setting effective goals, in fact, I started writing goals as the content was given and now I just want to tick them all off!”

“I found the session helpful. My biggest take away was that it will help me create achievable goals in the future. I’d recommend it to other schools.”

“Daniel’s virtual session was great, very engaging and welcoming, instilling in students that self belief comes from applying the right habits. Definitely recommend it to other schools.”

“I found the session very inspirational. Daniel knew how to speak about the topics and I learned how to manage my time and effectively cope with subjects.”

“My biggest takeaway was learning the HARP study method, prioritisation and setting clear goals. Daniel’s delivery was enthusiastic, engaging and interactive. Definitely recommend it.”

“The biggest takeaway for me was how to find and overcome the problems we might face as we grow into the real world and not let it get to us. What I liked the most was how the monkeys were used to show to find what you may need help in or what problem you might have. I found it very easy to understand and it was explained very well. I had no trouble with anything. I would definitely recommend this to other schools. It gave me a much more clear understanding of the problems there might be and how to overcome.”

“I loved the program”

“You were amazing Daniel. Thank you so much for the amazing 2 day experience. I learned so much!”

“I learned that I’m not the only one with these specific “monkeys” on my back. It’s comforting to know I’m not alone. Daniel was really into it and was hyping us up the whole way and getting us involved. Definitely encourage other schools to get involved.”

“I learned how to be in control of my own life and not waste time pleasing other people. My favourite parts were how Daniel explained the monkeys and how they impact our everyday lives and I also really liked his story and finding out about the challenges he went through and how he turned his life around to become the man he is today. I really enjoyed it and suggest we do this sort of thing more often and there was honestly nothing that I didn’t like. Definitely recommend it to other schools, it’s extremely helpful.”

“Daniel taught me that negative mindsets can be challenged – at the end of the day, I’m the only person who can turn my life around. The virtual experience was certainly something different, however it went well. I enjoyed the personifications of the negative mentalities – it helped me to better understand and visualise my own ‘monkeys’ and think about how to combat them. The delivery was smooth and engaging. I enjoyed the session very much. Highly recommend Daniel to other schools.”

“My biggest takeaway was to focus on being yourself. Daniel was very good and relatable. Definitely recommend it.”

“My biggest takeaway was to get the monkeys off your back, especially Darryl. I get distracted easily and he gave us a lot of information on how to get rid of the monkey on our back. I had fun listening to his experiences and learnt a lot. I love the way he speaks, and gets even those that get distracted easily to focus on what he is saying. Enjoyed the Q&A and how Daniel answered all questions given. I’d recommend it to other schools because like many people would gain a lot from the knowledge he shares and from listening to him. The most important thing is taking notes because you will need them.”

“Daniel’s delivery was clear and engaging and helped the students understand more about how to study effectively. Highly recommended.”

“The virtual session was very good and I would recommend it to other schools. My biggest takeaway was learning how to properly manage my time throughout the week, and how to also properly set my life goals. The engagement throughout the class was great since Daniel often asked questions to involve us.”

“My biggest takeaway from the lesson was don’t be like the 5 monkeys – Enzo, Scooter, Darryl, Tyson and Moi. I enjoyed the whole session. Daniel was a very nice and enthusiastic man at all times, which made it interesting and got me to listen the whole time and not get distracted (an achievement for me?). Daniel was able to be seen and heard clearly by us students. I would recommend this to other schools. It’s very interesting what Daniel has to say, he is good at presenting and what he says, sticks with you.”

“I really loved how we got to speak to Daniel Merza via Zoom, so cool.”

“It was an absolutely amazing experience. The screen was clear, videos were clear, everything was working well.”

“Thank you Daniel. The students loved the two sessions”
