Global Young Leaders a life-changing experience

My daughter attended GYLC in Washington and New York in June/July of 2016. Travelling all the way from Australia was a major commitment but completely worth it. Envision's GYLC provided a forum for her to step outside of her usual school life, to start to see the world as an adult, and to see her role in it as full of potential. She made amazing friends and grew in confidence and maturity but she also had her eyes opened to so many important social and political issues. The organisation of the conference, accomodation and communication to parents by Envision was exceptional and we never felt concerned for our daughter or left out of the loop. I would recommend this programme and envision most highly.

Excellent career exposure

The Envision camp on media production was fantastic for our son, who is entering his senior year in high school. He was given exposure to many aspects of film making, production, editing and publication. He was confident he wanted to "make movies" but this was his first experience with what really happens behind the scenes. He has returned home with a better definition of what he wants to do and what to look for in a college choice. Additionally, he had a wonderful time and met many new friends that he continues to communicate with. We chose this camp because he was somewhat naïve about the industry and the options available in film production. He now has a better idea of what it takes and what he wants to pursue in college. He also loved New York and came home more mature than when he left! The dorm experience was a nice prelude to college.

NYLF- worth every penny

When I was preparing for this trip, I was very nervous about meeting people and what I would be doing. Needless to say, it happened to be one of the best times of my life. Not only did I learn tons and have fun, I left with many life long friends. The experience was one I will never forget.

Excellent Experience!

My son loved his camp experience with Envision! He attended the Multi-Platform 3D game design program. He says that the instructors were very knowledgeable and friendly, and, he received extra attention when they saw that he already had basic working knowledge of the programming codes and taught him more advanced lessons. The kids are kept busy and are well supervised throughout the entire camp. The dorm and dining hall living gave him a good taste of what college will be like. He wished he could stay longer!

Pretty Amazing

Our 11 yo son learned a lot at the NYLF STEM Camp. He didn't just learn about STEM topics, he learned leadership, planning, working with others, and fine-tuned his social skills. NYLF staff were informative, knowledgeable, and caring.
