Me está resultando muy interesante y de gran aprovechamiento personal.
Muchas gracias
Toppp, il vous apprend les bonnes bases. À recommandé !!
Excelente curso, vivencial a pesar de la virtualidad.
Me gusto el curso, el contenido y las prácticas que vienen.
Solo les invitaría a checar su plataforma, intente subir 4 veces mi trabajo final y no me lo permitio, no tengo computadora y todo lo hago por celular, podrían adaptar las funciones para android.
Por el curso estuvo excelente. Gracias!
Buen profesor, brinda excelentes tecnicas pero el curso en si no es lo que esperaba.
El audio subtitulado es de muy mala calidad y la mayoria de los recursos que proporcionan son en ingles, lo que dificulta poder realizarlos.
