Scottish Guidance Teachers Association Workshop day 2016
“Euan provided the audience with a humorous, insightful look at life from the perspective of someone who is autistic....”
“The presentation that Euan gave provided me with a genuine insight into the difficulties experienced by autistic youngsters. He was an engaging presenter and the personal anecdotes he used really helped to illuminate both the condition, and the confusion that autistic people might encounter in everyday situations.”
Eleanor McIlraith (PT Guidance, Banchory Academy)
‘Euan gave us a presentation that was not only informative but highly entertaining. I left the presentation with a greater understanding of the difficulties associated with autism.’
Angela Walker (ASL Teacher, Banchory Academy)
‘I loved Euan’s anecdotes and stories which made it easier to understand how someone with Autism can feel’
