As a staff member I have never really sat down and thought about what I have contributed to the program and what it has given me. When I actually think about it the STEP program has given me so much. Working with the students has allowed me to see the world differently. Even though the students are not that much younger than me, their mentality on a lot of different issues are quite different than mine. 

The kids help me see everyday and remind me why I want to become a doctor because giving back is such an important thing to me. In addition, when I see these young scholars going out and reaching their goals, it emphasizes why I am doing the same. I believe that I have been an excellent resource for the kids. Not only have I tutored them and been a great mentor, I have been a good listener as well. Working for STEP has allowed me to build on my leadership and teamwork skills and I thank the supervisors for their constant support and making STEP a second family. I am blessed to say that I am a junior and I will be coming back to tutor because I love where I work. STEP overall has given me so much that it is difficult to express how truly grateful I am. 

Thanks to Felita Orr, Amir Gilmore, Etwin Bowman and Celia Rouse for allowing this program to run as smoothly as it does.
