off your program for a last minute registration &#8211; a rare deal!</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>When choosing a <a href="http://www.amerispan.com/teenager_programs_abroad/">Teenager Study Abroad program</a> for high school students it is important to do your research.&#0160; Here are 7 Things  to Consider:</p>
<p><a href="http://blog.amerispan.com/wp-content/uploads/old_images/6a01156f484efb970b01310f88a955970c-pi.jpg" style="float: left;"><img alt="Teen_costa_rica_group3" class="asset asset-image at-xid-6a01156f484efb970b01310f88a955970c " src="http://blog.amerispan.com/wp-content/uploads/old_images/6a01156f484efb970b01310f88a955970c-200wi.jpg" style="margin: 0px 5px 5px 0px; width: 165px;" /></a> <strong>1. Level of Supervision &#8211; </strong>AmeriSpan offers 3 levels  of supervision for Teenager programs. The Summer Camp programs are fully  supervised. In Junior Immersion programs, Teens have to learn to balance  supervised activities, free time, and a curfew. Independent Teen programs  offer<strong> </strong>no supervision and no curfew, making them best for families or<strong> </strong>extremely mature and well-traveled teens.</p>
<p><strong>2. Program Intensity &#8211; </strong>Are you looking for a program that focus on classroom hours and language  intensity? Would a program filled with activities, excursions, and recreation be  more important? Or are you looking for that perfect balance? Knowing just how a  Teen will spend a day in the program is important. </p>
<p><span id="more-413"></span></p>
<p><strong>3. Type of Lodging  &#8211; </strong>Programs either offer lodging in shared student dorms and residences or  accommodations with a local host family. It is important to make sure your teen  is comfortable where they are staying so that he/she can get the most out of the  program.</p>
<p><strong>4. Participant Mix &#8211; </strong>Many Teen programs are for teens  ages 13-17. That is a wide range and you want to make sure child is going to fit  in &#8211; are they too young? Are they too old? Another plus to these programs is  that many, but not all, locations have a large international student body where  your teen can make friends from around world. Contact us to find out more about  specific cities. </p>
<p><strong>5. Location &#8211; </strong>You want your teen to be  comfortable when they travel. Sometimes it is good to push them out of their  element; but, you can go too far. If your teen does not like big cities, look  into more moderate sized cities.&#0160; Same goes for the reversal. Don&#39;t place them  in a small town without much to do. </p>
<p><strong>6. Reputation &amp; Reliability &#8211; </strong>With the advent of the Internet, there are many organizations who have nice  looking web pages which makes them appear more reputable than they actually are.  You should try to contact past participants and do some research to make sure  you put your trust in a reliable and reputable organization.</p>
<p><strong>7. Price  &#8211; </strong>One common error made by many is judging a program&#39;s quality by its  price.&#0160; A Study Abroad program&#39;s price has no correlation between quality and  price.&#0160; An expensive program may be best or worst in terms of quality.&#0160; Further,  the individual needs of a participant or participant&#39;s parents vary so find the  program that meets your needs and is of high quality.</p>
