I really appreciate the time these guys invested in this course and am willing to take it again if they re-explain some topics in order to refresh some things that with time haven't stayed in my mind.

Really excellent course. I knew some of the learning techniques but not how they were connected with neuroscience and brain function. Would recommend this course to students and lifelong learners like myself. Thanks for sharing.

Very Useful. Things that i used do while in school and college are so useful that i can apply even now. Modes of thinking, chunks and procrastination. Barbara and Terrence are fantastic in explaining concepts in simple format.

Great tips for young students and older professional alike! Most ideas might seem common sense, but few actually put them to practice with a conscious mind. It provided a lot of "professional" advice for my kids also. THANK YOU!

Useful course. Wish they would touch on Essay writing and how to tackle mental blocks or how to get started. They focused a lot on test taking, but in Masters level a lot is based on essays. Overall good course and entertaining.

This is a fantastic course that I wish I would have had available to me when I was still in high school. I think the concepts taught would have put me on an entirely different educational path. Thanks again for the great course!
