This is an exceptional course. I wish I knew about it before. My previous job role allowed me to facilitate on several courses and I am little impressed by many presenters. However, the presenters and the material was beyond my expectations.

I was indeed very satisfied to have completed this course. Initially, I did not know that our brain has so many things within it. It was a very nice experience in knowing the working of the brain and training it to effectively learn new concepts!

Really helpful course for learning new things. I've been generally interested in learning for a while (working with the Anki app daily to memorize things) but much of the information in this course was new to me and some has been helpful already.

Nagyon hasznos volt, felismertem tanulási gyengeségeimet, hogy min is kellene változtatnom. Biztosan fogom tudni kamatoztatni jelenlegi egyetemi tanulmányaim során is. Nagyon tudatosan voltak összeállítva a tananyagok és a számonkérő tesztek is.

Excellent! I have been a teacher for 18 years. I wish I had learned this information when I was preparing to be a teacher! It would have helped me as a learner, and it would have informed the study skills classes I attempted to cobble together.

This course teaches the fundamentals of the learning process. The optional interviews are very useful and enlightening. Weeks 1-3 were the most useful. Week 4 is more about test taking strategies, hence, not as useful for working professionals.
