Always a delight to receive a new issue

It is always a delight to receive a new issue of The Teenager Today every month. Our students find it an enriching and an enlightening experience to read this magazine. The Teenager Today resonates with the vision of our institution and it goes a long way in making education holistic for the youth of our nation.

Covers every possible topic in the lives of teens

The Teenager Today is very valuable for us young people. I enjoy reading it as it’s such a healthy and wholesome youth magazine. It is the one magazine that covers every possible topic in the lives of us teenagers. It has increased my general knowledge, improved my command over English and has become a moral guide for me. The education and career advice received from Dr Vibha Gupta in Career Talk helps us choose the right career.

‘Addicted’ to this wonderful magazine

I first came across The Teenager Today at my friend’s place and ever since I have been ‘addicted’ to this wonderful magazine. I appreciate the heart-touching quotations in Soul Strings, the advice in Dear Youth Counsellor, the hilarious jokes in Funny Bone and the current issues faced by youth in the various features and articles. The Teenager Today is doing a wonderful service in the lives of us youth.

I really like The Teenager Today and I haven’t missed a single issue since I first subscribed for it over a year ago. Reading this magazine gives me immense joy. The articles are very interesting and informative, and I especially like to read Teen Space, Sci-Tech and Wired.

Each issue enlightens my mind and heart

I enjoy reading all the articles in The Teenager Today and repeatedly read those that I like over and over again, e.g., Weird & Wonderful, D.Y.K., Students Corner, Readers Blog, Bob’s Banter. I am always eager to read this mag; each issue enlightens my mind and heart. I like the new column Teens Can Cook! by Fifie Mendonca with its simple, yummy recipes. My classmates and I always discuss which recipe to try out of all those published. Cheers to the best magazine for youth!
