Sara è stata molto gentile e paziente, ha saputo mettermi a mio agio nonostante il mio iniziale impaccio.

Actually this time the lesson wasn't so engaging as the previous one. In some moments the conversation goes dull...maybe because Sara is a bit shy and quiet. Anyway I enjoyed the topic and I am sure the next lesson will be better.
