"Needless to say: I was very happy".

His parents?

"They were, they are !, in seventh heaven. They accompanied me to Rome. They were unable to enter the Quirinale for the ceremony, due to Covid. They remained out for two hours anxiously waiting".
What did Mattarella tell you?

"I went up on stage and congratulated me and all the other standard bearers and best of luck for the future. But something else struck me in particular ...".

Thing?

"He had a mask, but as he looked at me and the other standard bearers he seemed to be smiling with his eyes."

"My dream is to go back to my high school one day. But as a teacher".

Mathematics is one of the least popular subjects for young people. What advice would you give kids to enjoy it?
