Very useful. Explained how the brain - mind and memory - works, and showed techniques for learning more effectively. Wish I'd known about this stuff while I actually went to high-school and college!

Prefect and insightful. I got few tools that I have started applying right away and it is helping me every day. I was wondering if I had this tutorial in my school days, I would have done any thing I would have dreamed off. Thank you for educating me about how to learn.

Unlike other 'self improvement' courses, the scientific basis of the techniques in this course has made it easy for me to immediately start practicing on them and the results are already evident. In my doctoral studies, this course has been a great help. Excellent work!

I think the course was very good, I have learned a lot. I already started using a lot of techniques from the course in my studies, and have already been noticing results, which is amazing. I think the course could further benefit if more "advanced" material is included.

Implementing even a few of the methods taught in this class helped me improve my learning and move forward. Knowing how to learn best is a key skill in today's world and Professor Oakland teaches this skill in a very clear and engaging way. I really enjoyed this course.

An outstanding practical course with just enough science for those of us who care about "how things work" about how our brain retains information and knowledge. After attending several graduate programs, I wish I had attended this course during my undergraduate studies.

A must learn course! So many insights! A charming lector! There is a proverb (from bible if i recall correctly) if you give man a fish - he will have food for one day, if you teach him fishing - he will have food for his entire life. This course teaches you how to fish.

I really like the way this course was done. It was full of explanations, metaphor, and allegory, such as learning methods they have presented. The MCQ at the end were great, and all the MOOC was done according to the learning concepts they wanted to present.
Thank you :D

Очень интересный курс. Затрагивает процессы распределения времени с нестанддартной стороны, учит, как правильно сфокусироваться на получении новых знаний, а также даёт интересные лайфхаки на основе международной практики. Рекомендую посмотреть видео. Вы не пожалеете!)

This course was awesome. Teaching people learning how to learn seems a very basic thing in education, but there are not many people that take it seriously. Because of this I found the content of this course very helpful and thank instructors for the great job they did.
