Muy buen curso. Dicen que todas las historias posibles ya estan escritas, asi que es muy buen ejercicio tomar una historia conocida y reescribirla a nuestro estilo.
Por meio de um livro especifico, a instrutora explora todos os aspectos relacionados ao curso. Seria interessante ver esses tópicos desenvolvidos também a partir de outros contextos e gêneros e descobrir como se relacionam. Adoraria uma parte 2 deste curso.
This course started out very well. I like the presenter / teacher very much. However, English is my first language and the subtitles and audio in English were so bad, it made the learning and listening so much more difficult. Not happy with this DOMESTIKA - have reported the subtitles and problems with the audio - I do hope you do something about it. Until it is fixed - I cannot recommend this course for English speaking participants. It's painful to work through - I gave up. It's so bad!!
Aprecio una fluidez y sintonia con todos aquellos lenguages del Sur.
La profesora es muy cálida y apasionada para mostrar su conocimiento.
