"When I think of Science and presentation that will captivate my junior high students, I think of Larry Wirtz and his Magical World of Science! Over the years, I have invited Mr. Wirtz to perform his magic and he always captivates his audience inspiring them to want to learn more about various Science principles he presents and intriguing them with his humor. Larry Wirtz is a must when it comes to Science, learning, and entertainment! You will not be disappointed!" |

"Our 3rd and 4th grade students greatly appreciated your wonderful presentations, 'The Magical World of Science', and 'The Physics of Toys!' They were uniquely engaged throughout, and eagerly awaiting the next line of humor or vibrant experiment!
I had the opportunity to view your talent in a previous school. I was impressed with your professionalism, humor, and ability to intrigue middle school students. For those reasons, I did not hesitate to invite you to Grant Elementary School.
We hope that we will be fortunate in the future and have another opportunity for you to return to Grant and turn more kids on to science."

"Larry Wirtz's 'Magical World of Science' is one of the most informative and entertaining assemblies we have ever witnessed. His ability to captivate an audience, which included students from kindergarten through 5th grade, and keep them totally engaged and instructed them about principles of physics in a way that left them wanting more knowledge is truly amazing. I highly recommend this assembly for all who want to stimulate your students' love of science." |

"Larry Wirtz recently visited New Britton Elementary and presented his 'Magical World of Science' program. The students, staff, and parents found his program to be educational and entertaining. While some other programs have been fun to attend but had little educational value, Larry's emphasis was on science education presented in a very lively and entertaining manner. Students in grades K-4 left with a clever understanding of magnetism and the Bernoulli principle. Mr. Wirtz's design of showing multiple examples of both of these two science topics allows him to have a longer lasting impression on students and to reach all of our age groups. Larry left the students excited to be learning science.
I personally found Mr. Wirtz to be very accommodating, professional, and easy to work with as we arranged for him to come on the day of his presentations. He presented the same program twice during the day each time to half our students, and then presented a different program that evening in conjunction with our science fair awards ceremony. It was very beneficial to have the same presenter be able to provide two different programs in the same day."
