I wish I could have had this material taught to me before middle school or at least before high school. It would be great to include this course in the first semester of college. Everyone in the world should learn this, but mainly everyone dedicated to furthering their education should take this couse. It has powerful learning tools.

I think this class is well done. It is simply put together and simple is the fastest way forward. I applaud Barbara Oakley and look forward to reading her books and hearing more from her. I have shared what I have learned with my high school student and encourage high school, higher education and life students to take this course.

I am blessed for having the opportunity to study and participate in this Course. I am not the same students because I know I can do all things through Christ, I have learned many techniques I didn't know before, also gained knowledge of how my brain works, and I learn from so many interesting people and their testimonies.

Thank you!

I wish if I went through this course at the beginning of my University life. But no problem with that. I am sure this course has changed my way of learning. From now on I will learn more effectively and efficiently than earlier. I didn't actually know how sleep affects our learning. Thanks a lot to the instructors and coursera team.

Pienso que es un curso indispensable, motivante y entretenido, para las personas que gusten aprender y también deberia ser obligatorio en el primer semestre de cualquier carrera universitaria. Sería interesante hacer una adaptación para primaria, si es que no existe ya. Me divertí y sentí ganas de leer cada sugerencia. Muchas gracias

I learnt learning processes and new techniques that I will apply in the future. The video and concepts are very well explained by Barbara Oakley, the examples given were easy to understand and relate to.

The quizzes were helpful in recalling the information learnt, overall I recommend the course to those who never learnt how to learn!

This is a very informative course, introducing you to a bit of neuroscience to back the information with scientific evidences and it is introduced in a way everybody could understand. It is really a course I can recommend to everyone wanting to have more efficient ways of learning and looking for scientific backings for those habits.

This course is for anyone trying to learn a new skill set as well as improve ones current position in life in general. For anyone trying to jump start TRUE change in your life it takes HARD WORK and DEDICATION. The tools learnt in this course can be applied in any circumstance the question is are you willing to try them for yourself.

This course may have changed my life and how I learn for ever.

I'm very thankful to the creators and ppl that made it possible. This was my first MOOC but certainly not my last and I think it's a good set up for the courses to come.

Thank you for letting me learn how to learn (for free(!)) since german education doesn't teach you that.

The material presented in this class will benefit anyone who wants to understand and employ more effective strategies for acquiring new skills and knowledge. It also gives great insight into some of the common frustrations of learning, and explains where those frustrations are actually normal and needed parts of the learning process.

It is amazing course and too useful i love the team and i think it is very useful for all people in all areas and all ages .It really helpful and gives you a lot of thoughts and techniques that you can use to improve your thinking and your life !! . Thank you : Dr Barbra Oakley, Dr Terry and all of the Learning How to Learn Team.

This a great course that I wish I had taken years ago. A lot of insights into how our brain works as far as learning is concerned. This course would absolutely help me to study more effectively and efficiently. And it will, since I'm not planning to ever stop learning. I also liked the optional material sections. Thank you very much.

This course should be the starting point of any academic career, it provides useful and actionable insights on how to deal with procrastination as well as providing deeper awareness on how to manage ourself in the learning process. It's a pleasure and a privilege to hear and learn form Prof. Barbara Oakley and Dr. Terrence Sejnowski.

Learning How to Learn is a very helpful course. On top of the main course/videos, the interviews with different experts from different fields were very helpful. This course should be required in schools globally. I wish I have learned how to learned when I was younger. Thank you so much for creating this very relevant and fun course!

I loved this course! It helped me a lot in the way I'd approach learning new things. It taught me to study more effectively and to stay the course on what I was engaging in. It gave me a different perspective at looking at problems I'm dealing with and applying better strategies or techniques in tackling them.

Thank you so much!!

I really enjoyed this course, it was highly engaging, I loved the fun drawings as well as the more serious presentation material. The course gave me the opportunity to test what I just learnt and it was packed with useful and interesting information. I already started using some of the tricks we learnt and I feel it really helps me.

I took the English course with Spanish subtitles and I must say that the videos are easy to understand, however the exams are more difficult to answer if you do not fully understand English, yet this course provides knowledge in a simple and good way. i liked it very much and didn't find it to be at all heavy or difficult to handle.

This is a great course for life in general! Knowing how your brain works can help you in many areas besides coursework. The only things I would criticize is a couple of the optional reading articles are behind paywalls and the volume of the professors is drastically different, please equalize the volume of speakers in future videos.

This was my very first MOOC in my entire life. It changed the way I think about learning. I wish I had knew about these MOOCs earlier! This MOOC helped me to conceptualize learning strategies in order to learn effectively and efficiently. It made me realize that I could have done so much by being aware of my zombie mode(bad habits).

This is a great course to follow. Should appreciate work done by both Barbra Oakley and Terry Sejnowski , Such great instructors!!!! The experienced I gained by this course will surely improve my ability on controlling my mind more efficiently and will encourage me to face my exams as well as the future challengers as well.

Cheers!!!

I really loved this course! I have always been a good student (with good grades) but I also knew that my methods of study were not the best, so with this I hope to take advantage on everything that I learned to make the best os my study sessions for the next semester.

Thank you Barbara Oakley and Terry Sejnowsk, best teachers ever!!

This course is absolutely awsome. It was one of the best courses I've made. I've learned very important techniques and tips to improve my study performance and also my memory.

I gained awareness about the brain processes to think and memorize and this brought me awareness about how I can improve so that the study is more effective.

This Course is really help me a lot. I have learned some ways or skills, including the Pomodoro technique , to help me improve my scores,

I also have learn some knowledge about Psychology and Neurology .

I think I will insist do some exercise everyday and apply some techniques learned from this course to

my study and life.

Thanks.

I am a senior in college and I wish I had taken this course earlier! Some of the methods in this course are a little bit over top (at least for me); however, most of the information given is groundbreaking in the sense that it is so simple yet so effective. I will use the information learned from this course for the rest of my life.

I learned "How to Learn" first time after learning many things over a period of time. I could understand what mistakes, I made while learning in past. Pomodoro Technique is awesome and very much useful in focused way of learning. I could learnt to control habit of Procrastination. This is a fantastic course, must to do for everyone.
