“Tommy Nugent offers a presentation that’s both informative and heartfelt…. Tommy inspires kids because he understands. It’s that simple… I highly recommend Tommy Nugent. He is a person who has chosen to devote his time and attention to America’s children. His performance radiates sincerity and commitment and his story resonates with humor, hope and good intentions.”  - Debbie Miller, Social Worker, Indian Trail Middle School - Plainfield, Illinois

“The students were amazed, inspired, and challenged…[they] overwhelmingly enjoyed your presentation, felt they learned a lot, were motivated and challenged and felt that you could really relate well to them. Your message was extremely relevant to their lives. The students were spellbound and their last words to me were ‘Please bring Tommy back. He’s one of the most interesting speakers we’ve had in years!’” - Patty Kubitschek, Regional Office of Education - St. Clair County, Illinois

“It is with pleasure that I recommend Tommy Nugent’s ‘Magic and Motivation’ if you are looking for an innovative and exciting program. The feedback that I received from students and faculty was overwhelmingly supportive. Tommy’s techniques of presenting magic while involving students from the audience and providing subtle, yet inspirational messages, was very effective. I knew this program was successful when a student stopped by to congratulate me for ‘finally getting a GOOD speaker!’” - Elnabeth Grau, Counselor Logan Municipal Schools - Logan, New Mexico

"“This program was one of the best programs that we have ever had…His message about making the right decisions really hit home with the kids.  Tommy had the kids in the palm of his hand. He was interesting, exciting, enthusiastic and fun. We will be having Tommy back again. He cares about kids. And they care about him and his message. In short, his program was awesome!"  -  Dale Wolpers, Asst. Principal Cottage Grove Jr. HS - Cottage Grove, Minnesota

 “Tommy, thank you for the great performance…you held the kids’ attention with your entertaining, friendly and respectful way of getting your clear no-use message across. In our experience, it is unusual to find such expertise in a presenter. When we spoke with the kids afterwards they were enthusiastic in their positive response to the day’s activities. One girl said, ‘It was the best day of my life." - Anne Jameson/Kathy Parker, Safe/Drug Free Coordinators Adrian Public Schools – Adrian, Michigan

“Tommy Nugent has an excellent rapport with his audience. Middle school students are often hard to relate to, but Tommy immediately caught the attention of our kids. He does an excellent job of combining magic, comedy and lecture without the audience feeling that they are being ‘preached’ at. His show touches on violence, self-esteem, drugs and alcohol. It is entertaining and education." -  Kathy Channell, Student Council Advisor Lebanon, Ohio

“Tommy weaves a balance of magic, humor, and message in his program which appropriately addresses drugs and bullying while holding the student’s attention. I would strongly recommend this entertaining, insightful and honest individual for any middle school program.”  - Garth Pinkston, Asst.Principal EACox Middle School - Columbia, Tennessee 

"Thank you for a truly heart-felt and inspiring assembly… the message of writing your own story proved to be powerful.”  - Ben Orth, Royal Middle School, Royal City, Washington 

“We were impressed with his ability to put on an entertaining show, but were more impressed with his ability to reach kids. His message was something they believed: ‘You write your own life story."  - Sharon Moerman, Watervliet Middle School, Watervliet, Michigan
