"I've learned to overcome my shyness. I used to be very shy and never spoke up in class. Now I speak up."
"At Summerbridge you can count on the teachers. They're more than teachers, they're friends. They are there for you when you need them, they answer your questions without making you feel dumb. You can even call them at night, if you have a problem or need help. My friends who are not in the program , they have no one to turn to. I feel lucky."
"One of the best things about Summerbridge is the young teachers. If all teachers were like these teachers, kids in school would learn a lot more and like it better too."
"Summerbridge teachers are nice. Even though I have fun because they play around and stuff I feel like I'm learning a lot. If I have questions I can just stop. I don't have to wait to get the teacher's attention."
