¡Genialísima! Me ha encantado la entrevista y las preguntas: muy interesantes. Me gustaría saber algo más sobre qué opina, por ejemplo, sobre la enseñanza de las matemáticas. Dice que no le gusta cómo se enseñan, pero no explica por qué. Quizá sería interesante que desarrollara más esa idea, ¿no? Incluso otro post explicando un poco las diferencias entre los dos sistemas educativos ... jummmm...
