Thanks really a lot again
Last year I went back to the material you gave me, the notes I took during your precious lessons and to the exercises. This year I was presented to the committee, I made my show and one hour ago I was told that I got my promotion. In what I was able to do, there is a lot from your lessons. It is by far the most useful course I had.
So, thank you very much Branka. I really appreciated your help.
Grazie di cuore
