Testimonials

“The TeenLife Boston - Guide to Summer Programs is a great resource for teens and parents – well organized, clear information, thoroughly researched, and incredibly useful.  I would recommend it for any family living in the Boston area.  It is particularly useful to have all the information in one place.  Thank you!”

Lynn McFarlan Randall, Director of Parent Relations, Winsor School

“Using the TeenLife Boston Guide to Summer Programs was very helpful in planning learning experiences for my teenage son (during the summer between 7th and 8th grade). We planned the entire summer in about 45 minutes! After leafing through the Guide we made note of the programs that interested us. Then, using the date index, we cross-checked the dates each program was offered. Next we called or made internet contact with each program to sign up and /or ask additional questions. That summer, my son enjoyed such varied experiences as learning how to bake desserts to participating in a community service project for inner city children. We would not have known about these opportunities had I not purchased the guide - it's a fantastic resource."

“The MATCH Charter Public School serves 220 Boston teenagers in a rigorous college preparatory program designed for our students to succeed in college and beyond.  Our students have benefited both from the presentation about job searching and the guide with summer opportunities outlined.  The presentation was direct, honest, comprehensive, and students felt connected to the presenter.  The specific advice she gave was most helpful.  The summer opportunities guide is a goldmine, saving hours of research by putting these opportunities in one place.”
