Speaking Engagements Kara shares about her cancer and her experience as a young author. She shares writing tips and encourages students to not be afraid to use their imagination. Many students have been inspired to write after reading Kara’s book and hearing her speak.
"Kara Siert was likely the most inspiring
of speakers my middle schoolers have had the pleasure
of hearing-- and they've had the privilege
of receiving dozens of professional career spokesmen and motivational speakers
from the community. This remarkable and talented young lady speaks to
adolescents in a way an adult cannot. With an interactive and well-formulated
presentation, she captivates not just their interest-- that's not the hard
part-- but directs her remarks to their hearts as well and leaves them
"jazzed"-- as the kids would say."

List in descending order
In March 2008, Kara was asked to speak twice at the Lakenheath Intermediate
School, UK, once to a class of 5th graders and then to two classes
of 4th graders. The students were great listeners and
enthusiastically participated in the interactive portions of Kara’s
presentation. Kara was quite pleased with how many of these students love to
read and write. One teacher shared with us that he is reading Kara’s book
aloud to his class and Kara was thrilled to hear how much they are enjoying
it.
In December 2007, Kara was asked to speak to three separate classes of 7th and 8th graders at the Lakenheath Middle School, UK. She was well received and enjoyed interacting with the students. She has since been invited to speak at Lakenheath Intermediate School. In January 2007 she was asked to be a guest speaker at the AWAG conference (American Women’s Activities, Germany) a leadership and personal development training organization for volunteers throughout the American military communities in Europe. The conference was being held at RAF Lakenheath, UK. Her first speaking engagement was November 2006. She spoke at the library on RAF Mildenhall, UK. |
