Helps to bring out the best in us

I’m an ardent fan and avid reader of The Teenager Today. I find it very interesting and educative. It covers topics that are relevant to the youth of India. It inspires, motivates, encourages, and imparts confidence through its various articles. It helps us to bring out the best in us. Teen Space, Music, Weird & Wonderful, Global Icons, Photo Pik and Poets & Poetry are my favourites.

Nourishes us with knowledge

The Teenager Today is the best magazine because it heals psychological wounds through counselling and nourishes us with knowledge. I always look forward to reading it every month. It has become a part and parcel of my life. I have gone to the extent of carrying it during my long and short journeys. I thank the editor and his team for such an inspirational magazine.

Excellent content!

The Teenager Today is completely different from other youth magazines because of its excellent content. My parents, too, appreciate and love reading the magazine. I don’t leave a word of any article unread and even read the magazine during my exams! TTT has also encouraged me to improve my reading habits. It is a great companion for me during my teen years.

It has become a part of my family

I first started reading The Teenager Today two years ago. Since then it has become a part of my family, with all the members enjoying reading it. With the help of its articles, my personality has blossomed. The T-Zone section is my favourite; I love solving Mind Games and reading the jokes in Funny Bone. TTT is my best friend in the most troublesome days of my life, helping me deal with my problems.
