Michaela is a warm and engaging presenter who skilfully demystifies what life is like for people who are deaf or hard of hearing, and provides the building blocks necessary for more meaningful conversations and greater understanding, regardless of who you are trying to meet on the same page.

Hi Scott, Thank you for your review! Glad to help with the demystification ☺️
Michaela facilitated a story time/nursery rhyme session at our play centre and it was fantastic. She has such a great ability to run an interactive and age appropriate class for the little ones, while educating the grown ups at the same time. She was very flexible during the session based on the needs of the attendees (intuitive to children’s interests throughout the session, while some grown ups wanted more explanation) and she handled it seamlessly. In addition to this, Michaela’s extensive knowledge and her willingness to open up conversations about Auslan culture and the Deaf community, and her mission to raise awareness around the use of Auslan make her the perfect bridge to close gaps in knowledge and break down misconceptions. We will definitely be bringing Michaela back for more sessions for our community!
Thankyou so much. 💓 Excellent intro to this new community x

Michaela Reece has taught our company three years in a row and every time we get so much great feedback that we have to invite her back the next year! She is a clear, compassionate and charismatic teacher who will wow you and your company with her ability to teach sign language and educate you on Australia's Deaf and Hard of Hearing community. It is always a pleasure to invite Michaela to teach sessions with our company and we look forward to seeing her again next year!
Michaela was a wonderful teacher who presented two workshops for our entire library service. I would highly recommend Michaela, she is knowledgeable, keeps the content interesting and is very engaging

Thank you Jacinta. Your team was so awesome to work with and I appreciated their participation and enthusiasm. Thanks for choosing to train with Awesome Auslan.
Awesome Auslan provided a foundational session to introduce Auslan to our team at work. The presentation was very engaging and informative. We really enjoyed it and were also given more information to continue our learning.
