his message and enthusiasm was at the top of the list for high school assemblies!

Jamar was one of the speakers at St. Vincent-St. Mary high school assembly for black history month. As a motivational speaker he was very passionate about making a positive impact in the Irish community. He spoke to the students about his motto “I believe with the right mindset you can go to the top”. He also talked about mentoring and developing people to become the best version of themselves. His enthusiasm was contagious and the students were instantly engaged, something every good educator strives for in the classroom. I have been in education for about 25 years and his message and enthusiasm was at the top of the list for high school assemblies!

THE GOALGETTA is committed to changing the world!!!

Jamar ranks among the very best speakers I’ve ever encountered!

In my experience as a principal, superintendent and teacher for many years I have had the pleasure of working with many guest speakers and members of the community. Jamar Blackmon ranks among the very best speakers I’ve ever encountered! I would without hesitation recommend Jamar Blackmon as a guest speaker with either your staff or group of students, he will deliver valuable information and analysis in an inspiring and entertaining manner.
