Tiene algunos detalles bastante útiles, me ha parecido interesante y creo que me va a servir para el futuro, aunque efectivamente bastante básico. En mi opinión me cansa un poco cuando enseñan sus colecciones y todo lo que hacen durante mucho rato, es como si el curso fuera una promoción del ponente, aparte que no me gustó mucho el estilo del mismo. Pero bueno en términos generales y por el precio que tiene está bastante bien, lo volvería a comprar por un par de cosas que me gustaron bastante.
