I really enjoyed today's lesson! It was one of our best lessons! Trevi truly cares about me as a person and knows exactly what I like! She also always gives me advice when I need it. Not to mention how much she has helped me with my English. She makes me feel at ease even when I don't remember certain words. Thank you so much, Trevi for the amazing birthday surprise! I will treasure it forever!

I'm really happy to see Trevi again after such a long time! Today we simply caught up with each other and we talked about how women have been overlooked in the scientific sphere. I'm really looking forward to my next lesson!
