I think very important that the recommendations of this course are based on a scientific background. The authors of this course give a solid list of references to each topic. I would recommend this course to people who want to learn powerful learning techniques.

this course is a very useful course, rarely do we get tips and tricks in studying in formal schools, and in this course we understand how the brain system works when we learn new things, and how effective tips can make our memory of a material sharp or permanent

I LOVED this course!! The information that I learned was more than priceless! I was using some of the techniques that I used the first day. This course not only gave me ivaluable info but now I know how to teach\ coach other people better because of this course.

One of the best courses i have attended on coursera. Its very simple and easy to follow. Course length is very reasonable and not too many ideas have been cramped in the videos. I think this should be your first course on coursera before starting anything else.

This is the first course that I like. I appreciate how both professors extend their effort to educate us well with their concepts. I also love the idea of added interviews with individuals who are well in learning. Overall, I love this course. Thank you so much.

Excellent course, fresh, alive, opens your mind, ideas, encourages you to learn ... you can learn everything you always wanted to learn. Thank you very much for sharing these ideas, experiences and this love for knowledge and teaching us by learning how to learn

At the very beginning of the course, I felt disengaged, But now I strongly say this THE course every learner should take up. The course has nicely crafted with a blend of Brain function facts and learning skills. I submit my heartfelt gratitude to both teachers.

Excellent course introducing several techniques and the science behind effective learning and mastering of subjects, no matter which subject. I strongly recommend this course - even an effective learner will come out learning at least 1 or 2 new tips and tricks.

I love how easy to learn in this course and how useful and easy understanding and using in the real life. Most of all, I love the optional review videos cuz it shows how successful ones use some tricks in this course and their own tricks to deal with their jobs.

By completing this course now i able to control my brain for learning something new and specially learn how to chunk and how to apply pamadora technique also learn how focus and diffuse mode exactly work. I specially thanks to learning how to learn team members.

From this course i was able to learn many new skills that i can put to real like situations when learning a new subject or when trying to solve a problem. Thank you to the team of learning how to learn, you have helped me to understand my learning a lot more. :)

A wonderful and rich course that will make you reconsider and review your learning habits. I enjoyed this course very much and thanks to Dr.Terrence and Dr.Barbra for putting together these nice course materials. I recommend this to everyone who loves to learn.

One of the basics when learning something new! This is quite a quick course, and much worth it's time! With lot of insights and tips on how our brains and bodies are functioning when learning, it gives some new angles to tackle our studying life. I recommend it!

The course provides incredible tools to improve and make our learning process more efficient. Moreover we can understand why the techniques helps us based on science.

It absolutely change my way of studying and moreover gave me a powerful reason to exercise more.

I cannot even begin to describe how helpful this course was. LISTEN TO THE OPTIONAL INTERVIEWS, they have some incredible people come on and they were by far my favorite part. I have shared this course with my family and cannot tell people enough how good it is.

This was one of the best courses so far for me. I'm absolutely grateful to all the teachers for such an interesting topics and tools. This course inspired me to learn more, and now I have so many cool tools and features how to make my learning easy and also FUN.

Excellent ! This course should be taught to all students and people who seek for mind and knowledge prosperity. I enjoyed to learn every idea shared in this course and the way it was presented. Many thanks to all people who worked to achieve this successful work

im very happy because this course was the first one i had taken . because im sure it will help me to understand and facilitate any other course that i will take next. im happy to say " I learnt how to learn " thanks Dr. Barbara Oakley and Dr. Terrence Sejnowski.

One of the best online courses. I wish I found it years ago. The main and core lessons will be helpful in my life. I will suggest the the students not to omit anything like additional material, because they can develop their understanding more there.

Best wishes!

Wonderful! Coming across this course on the Coursera is such a bliss. What I learned in the course totally changed my views and attitudes toward learning. I would recommend anyone who desires to have a better life to register to this course. You won't regret it!

A great help. I think the course has saved me lots of time which would otherwise have been spent on pointless repetition. Instead I will now spend more time organising my studies, looking for study groups and recalling what I think I have learnt to test myself.

Very useful and good structured course. Add in the reccomended reading books and you'll ease your studies a lot with the insights gained here.

The only minus for me in this course is a technical one, the audio should be louder in my opinion. Apart from that 5/5!

This is an amazing course and the companion text is awesome. In just a few weeks I was able to share theses skills in a workshop I was facilitating on text taking and each one of the graduate students who attended was able to pass using some very basic technics.

Really good course for all students and all people who study something. It gives you a lot of techniques helpful at studies and even in tests. I liked it so much. That was very useful. Thanks to the creators for this decent course and thanks for making it free.

I loved this course and have learnt so much. Some of the videos lacked quality, especially in terms of sound but it wasn't too bad. The additional resources were really good for reinforcing the main content and I'd recommend future larners have a look at these.
