Demasiado básico y pésima traducción. Hay temas escenciales donde se queda super corta; en cambi otros de menor relevancia los repite (como el de la preparación vocal). Hay partes del audio que no se traducen. Se me ha hecho aburrido para ver y aprender

Lo compre hoy, pero no logre avanzarlo mucho y ni disfrutarlo como queria, ya que el curso esta en portugues y el problema que la traduccion en español es muy mala, se escucha entre cortado y a veces se acelera la velocidad del audio.
El curso es bueno, pero la traduccion muy mala, tratare de terminarlo con subtitulos mejor. Espero que Domestika arregle esos detalles.
