Customer Reviews

This is a must read book!

I've been a teacher for many years and a life-coach to many young people and I found John Malinchak's book incredibly helpful, not only in the area of motivation, but he systematically creates an applicable, operational plan for teenagers to use to help them prepare for college and the fulfillment of their dreams. His approach is pragmatic, yet incredibly personal. I loved it and I highly recommend it, not only for teenagers, but for anyone wanting to find the road to success.

Any teenager who wants to be successful, needs to read this book. The author gives a simple to follow game plan for achieving success.

Where were was this book when I was a teen?

James Malinchak has done it again! I knew that after I read Mr. Malinchak's first book, "From College to the Real World," it was a must-read for college students, but I must say that "Teenager Tips for Success" is just as strong for teens. Moreso than the great content and sound strategies for success James outlines in his book, I found myself more impressed by the tone of it. He talks to teens, not at them. And I'm sure every teenager or parent who reads the book will appreciate that. Teenagers are a lot smarter than most people give them credit for, and James has a clear understanding of that in his book. I would venture to say that it would almost be impossible for a teenager to fail if he or she follows the road map that James outlines in this short, but life changing book. All I can say is that his tips and strategies would have saved me a lot of pain and frustration if I'd gotten a copy of it when I was a teen. If you're a parent, GET THIS BOOK for your teen. As a college professor, I can assure you, this type of message won't be in any textbook (and the cost is MUCH cheaper).

Just the Book for my "Little Brother"

I volunteer as a Big Brother in the Big Brother/Big Sister Assoc. and I purchased this book for my "Little Brother" as a way to help complement what I was trying to teach him.My Little Brother really responded to James' book and is already doing better in school and he is now setting some goals and making a plan for his future -- something that he never was interested in before reading Teenagers Tips for Success.

Effective and Real

I work very closely with our local school district and found that many teenagers do not have a clear direction for their future. I bought the book and shared it with some juniors who liked it for its easy reading and no-nonsense approach. This is a must for all high schools and junior highs.
