Story

by Tony Gauthier

I am in Gabriel Dumont. My tutors did an awesome job getting ready for school. I wouldn't be passing my midterms without their support.

I am pretty proud of myself for learning to read.

I have more friends now that I can read.

I moved from a noisy place and quit smoking so I could learn better.

I can buy my own groceries now that I can read.

I got a tutor for another guy.
