"I worked for 15 years in education in the city, I was also in the countryside. I have a very nice memory of my students. They have written so beautifully those letters in the sentence: 'We love you teacher and we will never forget you'. I have worked in education for 30 years", said teacher Iliana Bicka.

I wish all students good health and success with their results in life."
