LA PRENSA DICE..
ABC - Para Corbacho, "es una cinta de preguntas, y dejamos el final para que la gente se fuera a casa pregunt��ndose; era lo que nos ped��a la historia". "La l��nea entre buenos y malos es tan fina que, al final, decidimos dejarla casi transparente", ha a��adido.
MUCHO CINE.NET ��� (Natalia Eseverri) Creo que es de los mejores t��tulos que se le ha puesto a una pel��cula. Refleja sin ning��n tipo de duda, lo que son esos seres cuyo ��nico objetivo es jorobar la vida de los dem��s, porque tienen una vida insulsa y aburrida y necesitan fastidiar las ajenas para sentirse mejores.
EL PAIS - 'Cobardes' de Corbacho entusiasma al p��blico. Se trata de una pel��cula que afronta el espinoso tema de 'bullying' o acoso escolar. Y lo hace de manera tan esquem��tica que a la postre resulta did��ctica al centrarse no tanto en el acoso si no en el miedo y como cada uno de los personajes lo experimenta. Un chico 'sensible' sufre el acoso de un grupo de compa��eros del instituto mientras ni en la escuela, ni en casa, ni el psic��logo se enteran, o se quieren enterar, de lo que est�� pasando en realidad.

Test dialang

If you are interested in knowing the level you are at in different languages, try this test. You can even do it in your mother tongue.

DIALANG will help you to take control of your language learning and it will increase your awareness both of what you can do at the moment, and of what it means to know a language.

DIALANG has been developed by more than 20 major European institutions, with the backing of the European Commission.

DIALANG is the first major language assessment system to be based on the Council of Europe's "Common European Framework of reference", which has become established throughout Europe as the most widely recognized frame of reference in the field of language learning.

DIALANG offers carefully designed and validated tests of different language skills, together with a range of feedback and expert advice on how to improve your skills.

DIALANG also offers scientifically validated self-assessment activities, because it is now widely recognized that being able to judge your own language proficiency is an important part of learning a language.

DIALANG does not issue certificates. It allows you to find out what level you are at and where your strengths and weaknesses are, so that you can decide how best to develop your mastery of a language.
