I would start with checking the igition coil pack for power. If there is power to circuit you may want to see if you could swap one with a known good coil pack. Any codes set?

Any diagnostic codes. Check engine light? You may have to have it scanned at a shop

Yeah your going to have to get the vehicle scanned to check what codes are stored and also if your getting a spark signal from coil and crank sensor.

Your english is good no worries. It is possiable that a voltage spike from jump starting the vehicle may have damaged a module. You found have to bring the vehicle to a repair facility that can read any codes set, and check powertrain control data.

I have one more question...
Did you mean ignition module,
which activates ignition coil?
Maybe that can burn?
