As coordinator of the Students Firms, I explain to my students the importance of educational activities of teaching using this method.

I promote and use the modern method because is the best practice for students: learning the skills needed in the labor market;developing entrepreneurship, communication and negotiation skills;identifying both strengths and weaknesses and the opportunities and threats of a business;developing skills and abilities who reduce the period of adjustment to future employment; adaptability /flexibility for a future job.

Students just love it!
