Motivational speaker for high schools in Singapore

Glen Gerreyn is a motivational speaker and guest speaker for high schools in Singapore, in person. At St Joseph’s Institution International, Glen Gerreyn spent the day with Grade 10 and Grade 11 students, then ran a positive parenting session for the school community.

The reason schools bring Glen in is what students do afterwards. At SJI International, Glen set one invitation: take an action and tell us about it. A Grade 10 student wrote in: “Your talk gave me the final clarity I needed to start pursuing my goals… You told us to take action: so after school, even though I was tired and unmotivated, I decided to take action and go for a run… For the last few months, I have been knocking at a door that I know leads to something great, but I have simply been waiting for someone to let me in. Your words have given me the courage to finally force my way in.”

Another Grade 10 student went straight to work: “Today you encourage me to take actions towards my goals, so I did… I took the first step and created a portfolio for myself, and managed to get a few long-term clients. I’ve also started work on an agency for video editors, and got in touch with a friend to start an app we were postponing.”

Others started with the tools: “As you suggested, I have created my vision board and completed the VIA Character Strengths Survey. I am keen to apply your strategies in my academic and personal development.”

The parents heard about it at home too. One wrote after the parenting session: “My grade 10 son is a boy of few words, but he did share a few things from your talk… He spoke about having a physical, mental and spiritual goal every day. Last night we were saying our prayers and we spoke about things we were grateful for.”

That’s the bar for a school speaker. Not a good day in the hall. Students who walk out and act that same week, and parents who hear the language at the dinner table.

Glen has spent more than 25 years doing this in 750 schools across Australia, and the work now travels. Singapore visits run in blocks, so if you are planning a term ahead, ask when Glen is next in South East Asia. Plenty of schools first find Glen by searching for a motivational speaker for international schools. The label fits, and the proof shows up afterwards in the portfolios students build and the letters parents send.

What Our Singapore Student Wellbeing Seminars Bring Into the Room

Hope is a skill. We name it, we teach it, and we give students the tools to practise it: grit, optimism, courage, and resilience. Our seminars are built for Grades 7 to 12 and they’re delivered in person, because a screen can’t hold a room of teenagers the way a person in front of them can.

Every seminar is research-based and built to fit the pastoral care and wellbeing programme your school already runs. We don’t replace your work. We give your students and your staff a shared language to keep using long after we’ve flown home.

Singapore Student Wellbeing Seminars You Can Book

Day of Hope. A cognitive reset for a full grade level. Students leave with a plan on paper, not just a feeling.

Hope Express. A 70-minute seminar that shifts how students see their future. Built for Grades 7 to 12.
