Me gusto la clse, sin enabargo no pude conectarme con el ordenador, y la clase fue a través del movil , lo que dificultó bastante la visualización.

Jimmy is really cool and professional. During the session, he let me talk a lot and corrected me at some points. We had some good talks about different topics. I enjoyed that lesson.
