Over the past several years  Eddie Hypolite has spoken to our students at Charlton Christian College on a number of occasions. Whether he is presenting on making better life choices, having healthier relationships or helping students know their abilities to achieve their potential, Eddie has a gift for connecting with and communicating to young people. His impact with our students has been immeasurable. I would strongly recommend him to any organisation!

“I invited  Eddie Hypolite to my classroom during Black History Month. My students loved him and the message he shared with them. One of my students who struggled to engage throughout the whole year, opened up and showed real vulnerability with his peers. He even took notes! It was an amazing experience and for weeks after my students said we should bring him back. Grateful he was able to come to speak to my students.”

All the students expressed the fact they enjoyed and took a lot from the 2 sessions. In particular one student has completely turned a corner. Various issues meant we moved him to Community Foundation- he was not attending that or motivated. He did the session with Eddie and this morning I received this comment about his current behaviour from his current tutor.Also, may I tell you just how excellent his attendance and attitude has been; he has worked so hard and I am extremely pleased with his turn around. I asked the student what had brought this on and he said it was the first session with Eddie!!! It was worth it just for that.

 A fantastic, inspirational and insightful presentation and workshop delivered by Eddie at our BME Young People's Conference, Raising Aspiration's and Motivation to Achieve. Motivating and inspiring young people at risk of exclusion is always a challenge. Eddie's unique style of delivery, captivation and personalised approach, made the conference truly memorable. Endorsed by the positive feedback from students:
  • " workshop helped me with changing into something good right now".
  • "I will use the information to help me out with my future".
  • "He helps you to see your self differently. I will use the information when I feel down and need inspiration".
  • "He has inspired me to not mess about and focus more".
 
Much appreciated and look forward to working with you again.

Our school has been inviting Eddie Hypolite to speak with our seniors for the past three years. He has really helped to give them perspective in a way that teachers can’t always do. ‘Being Right Here, Doing Right Now, is a fabulous workshop for getting HSC students to check themselves and we couldn’t be happier with the results!
