Amaya is flexible with this and can accommodate what works best for your school. She won't mind spending a few hours at the school and sharing with multiple smaller groups. We find that students may feel more comfortable asking questions when the age gap isn't too wide, but she does best with a maximum of two or three groups in total.

We are grateful for the opportunity to share Amaya's book and her journey, aiming to inspire her peers. Her fee is $250 for a 25-30 minute session, with an additional $50 fee for each extra session per booking.

Ideally, a three-person setup is most comfortable for Amaya. She sits in the center, between a moderator and one of her parents, while she shares about herself, reads her book, and responds to questions. We can provide a PowerPoint deck with the illustrations from the book so that all students can see them as Amaya reads. The moderator helps encourage conversation and facilitates audience questions. In addition, Amaya does best with a maximum of two or three presentations in one booking, and she is more comfortable when she can sit on the same level as the audience (e.g. seated in a chair on the gym floor, as opposed to the stage).

Generally, Amaya starts by reading her book after she has been introduced by the school administrator/staff. This is followed by a facilitated Q&A with students, the timing of which is at your discretion. Usually, altogether this runs between 20 - 30 minutes total per presentation.
