Thank you very much for your evaluation, Den. I will use your comments
to make the lessons better for the next class.
This class with you was a great experience for me.
If you come to the US, please visit me. I would love to see you!
You are welcome to stay at my house any time.
Best of luck on the rest of your studies.
When you make your homepage for this course, please send me the URL. I
want to see your page, Den.
This is the last lesson: sayonara. It is at:
