Magic player since '98
I like turtles
Just trying to fill up the mandatary minimum character count with something relevant but can't think of anything.

Education

Played Magic since 1998.
Currently play standard, historic, pioneer, modern, legacy, vintage, EDH, and whatever kitchen table jank my friends are into.

Scratch classes for children and teachers, programming with Scratch.
Scratch is a technological tool widely used by schools today to teach children programming languages. As a student, it is essential to enhance creativity with Scratch or reinforce that knowledge at home, and I can provide all my support in that. Scratch is very important since learning opens the doors to the jobs of the future, which rather, is already the present. As a teacher, it is sometimes difficult to become familiar with new technologies, and being a robotics teacher in 3 schools in Valencia I can help you understand the tool and how to teach it. To take the classes, you only need an Internet connection from your device and a completely free Scratch account.
