"I recently had the pleasure of working with Matthew Holmes delivering a full-day training session on presentation skills to my team. From the initial consultation to the final wrap-up, he exceeded our expectations in every way.

Matthew’s expertise, energy, and enthusiasm were contagious, and he quickly put our team at ease. The workshop was engaging, interactive, and tailored to our specific needs. Matthew provided actionable tips, real-world examples, and constructive feedback that our team found invaluable.

The results were impressive - my team members left the session feeling more confident, prepared, and empowered to deliver effective presentations. I've already seen a significant improvement in their communication skills and overall performance.

I highly recommend Matthew to anyone looking for a top-notch presentation facilitator. His professionalism, creativity, and passion for teaching make him a standout in the field. We look forward to working with him again.

"I recently attended Matthew Holmes’ presentation skills course as part of a team upskilling initiative and, for me, it was a game-changer!
The course had a solid mix of theory and practice. The most beneficial part of the day was the practical component, in which each participant was encouraged to work on one skill that would make the most difference to their presentation.

Matthew’s engaging approach and sense of humour made the day very enjoyable. He has an ability to present concepts simply, so that we were able to put it directly into practice and then retain the learning.
The course has significantly boosted the team’s confidence in delivering work presentations and I would recommend the course to anyone looking to do the same.”

"I first attended Matthew Holmes' Engaging Presenters course a few years ago, and it genuinely changed the way I thought about presenting. It is a course that is practical, memorable, and immediately useful."

"This year, I engaged Matthew to come to Darwin and deliver the course to 20 members of my team. Professional development can be hit and miss, and it is pretty rare for a course to land this well across such a broad group of people. This one absolutely did."

"All week afterwards, people were coming up to me to talk about how much they got out of it. Not just polite feedback, either. Proper enthusiasm. People were genuinely excited about what they had learnt, how Matthew delivered it, and how they could apply it straight away."

"Matthew has a real gift for creating a room where people feel comfortable enough to step outside their comfort zone without feeling exposed or embarrassed. He is warm, funny, professional, and incredibly good at reading the room. He manages to challenge people while still making the whole experience enjoyable, which is not an easy balance to get right. "

"What stood out most to me was how personal and practical the course felt. It was not about turning everyone into the same polished presenter. It was about helping each person find a more confident, engaging and authentic version of themselves."

"I would recommend Matthew Holmes and Engaging Presenters without hesitation. It is one of the best professional development experiences I have been a part of, both as a participant and as someone responsible for bringing it to a team. If you want your people to communicate with more confidence, clarity and impact, Matthew is absolutely the person to speak to."
