Quills and Quotes

I joined Quills and Quotes to improve my public speaking skills. I wasn’t scared of public speaking, but I didn’t stand out from the other students. I learned so much from the Quills and Quotes classes, now I do stand out. In fact, last year I won my class speech competition. Now, I feel I am a confident public speaker who likes the challenge of presentations, speech competitions, and debates. Also, the public speaking classes helped me with my interviews for high school programs, a real bonus!

I wish there was a program like this when I was growing up.

My son has gone through this program and has benefited greatly from it. He went from having a mediocre understanding of essay writing and speech making to being proficient at both. We just got his report card and he has a 4+ in language arts now, For which I give quills and quotes a great amount of credit. My son is in grade 7 and is engaged in, as well as looks forward to his quills and quotes classes. Thanks q&q!

It was the small things that made the difference in Quills and Quotes. The writing and public speaking curriculum is outstanding, but what really did it for me is that my daughter progressed tremendously AND she loved the class. The teacher really cared that she got all the concepts. She followed up on any missed assignments. She was given positive encouragement throughout. Discussion was encouraged. Questions were encouraged. For the kids the small things that made a big difference were the prizes, the awards, the debates, the fun things like the “Soap Box Speech” and the “Who Is” books and discussing TED Talks. Quills and Quotes is quite a unique program. I highly recommend it!

If you are looking to improve your child’s reading, writing and public speaking skills, I highly recommend this program! I wish this program was around when I was in middle school.

There really aren’t too many high-quality programs for English literacy out there. My kids are in this one and I’m finding it is really helping them with being better at presentations and public speaking. Just too bad I have to drive all the way to Mississauga to get this. I’ve tried one of the other speaking programs for one child and was disappointed. This one has been great so far. Also, the director of the program is super nice and flexible. It just seems like these guys are passionate about what they are doing with the kids. Totally worth the drive!!!

My essays were 100% better this year. Thank you Quills and Quotes.

This is a great program. The curriculum has helped to advance my kids' reading and public speaking skills. They really enjoyed the weekly topics covered and their new vocabulary is impressive!

I've been looking for a program like this for my children for a long time! So happy to have finally found a curriculum that really focuses on public speaking and writing skills. They cover all essay types, build strong vocabulary and get kids speaking from day one!
