Wow! i didn't know there were many techniques in effectively using your brain. I have just discovered how to unlock my potential. What I like about the course is how the lectures were kept short and meaningful. I hope I can apply the techniques discussed in this course to my life.

The best course to learn how to learn. You will get answers many questions that you would have had on learning. The methods and techniques will be extremely helpful. I wish I had known these techniques when I was young where I would have enjoyed learning more than I actually did.

This course is extremely useful for me. As living in a country that exam-oriented education takes the lead, I find that a lot of my former study method were wrong. Therefore, I would definitely recommend this course to my friends, cousins, and of course, my teachers. Thanks a lot.
