Muy útil tanto para personas con experiencia pero más aún para aquellos que no, es fácil de seguir a pesar de estar en francés.

Muy satisfecho.
A pesar de estar en Francés, se entiende bien si es que estás medianamente familiarizado con el programa, si no conoces nada te recomendaría uno en español primero y después este (así lo hice yo y pude entender todo casi perfecto, excepto algunas cosas).
En sí el curso está súper, creo que hay cosas que se podrían mejorar con la plataforma y los subtítulos, pero no tienen que ver con el contenido de Marius, sino con la reproducción del video.
