What is a reasonable fee for a motivational speaker, London, UK? Recently, there was an article published whereby schools had reportedly paid an individual at £5000 an hour to inspire bored pupils. There was a mixed response as to whether the budget was spent wisely and if other interventions could have been more effective in this specific case. Some felt that teenagers need to be motivated but £5000 an hour is too high a price to pay, and you may not get the desired results you want. Others viewed the notion as part of the school's responsibility to motivate the students as and when educators feel they need it. After all, I would agree if students are not motivated to even listen to you, how will they learn what you are teaching them? The authorities even pointed out that this was a total waste of money because motivational speeches have little to do with real education. They felt that schools were built to impart useful skills to the kids, to aid them in getting a job and for them to be able to provide for themselves and their family. On the other hand, there were supporters for the said schools' actions and the mentioned motivational speaker in London, UK. Some people felt that such speeches were targeted at kids who really need it and addressed issues not covered in the curriculum. Whatever your opinion on the matter, a certain motivational speaker from London, UK charges up to £10 000, so the issue of fees are quite relative.
