“I want to second that we LOVED the workshop. It was such a wonderful experience for the girls and they enjoyed the meeting so very much. Jen and Claire did such an excellent job engaging with the girls and handled even the trickiest of questions so beautifully. We hope this can be an ongoing experience for the girls over the years and there are so many amazing topics to cover.”

“I will take everything to high school. You have changed how I interpret life in ways I cannot describe. I thought before I met you that there was no hope in being successful socially, but you proved me wrong.”
8th grade student
“Just because you feel insecure within yourself doesn’t mean that you put others down to climb to the top – I learned that at My Remarkable Self! How to be a good friend to myself and other.”

“My favorite topic was talking about bullying. I used to be bullied a lot when I was younger and it really helped me to find ways how to avoid it now and to know that I’m not alone.”

“Many thanks for running this amazing class! Being candid, my daughter was not pleased that I signed her up for this lunch / recess school program. After the first week, she was not upset to return, and by the third week, she was eager to return to the class! My daughter is very reserved, and this class has helped her come out of her shell. At the most recent parent teacher conference, her teacher noted a significant difference in recent weeks with her willingness to initiate group discussions.”
Parent of 10 yr old attending lunch club program
“My daughter has always been the type of child who has needed me to help solve her problems until this class. Recently, on two different occasions, she has explained to me how she used the tools you have given her to deal with a friend who has hurt her feelings. She has been able to voice her opinions in a more confident manner thanks to My Remarkable Self.”
Parent of 12 yr old attending lunch club program
“Thank you for this program: my daughter started out by not being too happy missing lunch / recess to looking forward to each and every MRS session. She came home so excited and couldn’t wait to tell us all about the wonderful activities and discussions. I also thank you for your educator and parent emails as they helped keep me up to date with the program and allowed for much more meaningful conversations at home.”
Parent of 4th grade student attending lunch club program

Parent of 9 yr old attending lunch club program
“I loved the workshop, it certainly opened up my mind/thoughts to be more aware of how I act and behave around my girls. Also to focus on the “good” in them, not just their accomplishments in sports, school, etc.”
