Je suis ravie de ce cours. L'artiste est claire dans ses explications et donne de bons conseils.
C'est parfait pour débuter ! Luiza Caldari est un personne inspirante. Je lui souhaite encore beaucoup de succès dans sa démarche artistique.
Me gusto mucho explica muy bien
AS legendas cobrem a exposição da trama (não há ícone para desativá-la) e em algumas, importantes, partes o vídeo filma a professora ao invés da peça que está sendo trabalhada. A Professora é bem didática. Gostei, bastante.
