12. Annie’s Story The word SCIENCE was a synonym to me of TRAUMATIC experiences from Junior High. I was tempted to drop out again thinking that "I'm just NOT a science person“…when I saw a sticker that read "new TUTORING SCIENCE CENTER AT DURHAM".... I was there last week and have been attending ever since. Today, thanks to little sessions that complement my work at home and in class with WONDERFUL YOUNG TUTORS I have gotten A's in all my science tests...A’s!!!!!!! For the first time in my life I can say proudly that I love Science.
