IGNASI

I see my favourites TV series in Netflix and feel "clever" as I understand things I hadn't heard of before - Dr. Jeckyll , Hyde or even or the American Dream

I liked a lot transforming old stories into present issues of our society

BASIC SKILLS DEVELOPMENT

With this project, I have learned that these universal masterpieces have an important message. And that with each literature work you can find one different moral. And the most important thing is that all these problems are still present in nowadays. And we can try and find a solution to stop them.
