Me parece injusto darle una mala calificación porque el contenido es realmente bueno. Pero es muy molesto que el audio en español sea tan malo. Es lento, hay partes que se pierde por completo y en otras se queda a mitad de lo que está diciendo.

Estoy estudiando con Hani, es la primera vez que estoy activa en la comunidad de uno de los cursos de Domestika porque ella es tan dulce, es tan linda y en verdad que te encariñas del proceso de aprender con ella. El curso es súper recomendado ella lo hace espectacular, lastimosamente Domestika en el idioma Español ha doblado su voz con lo que parece ser un bot, no me agrada nada, así que si eres de habla hispana por favor mira su curso en ingles y pon subtítulos en Español. Te vas a divertir.
