This is an amazing course. I would recommend that you take this course before doing any others in Coursera, it will give you a great foundation to take into any other subjects that you want to learn.

Formation très enrichissante et très pédagogique.
Donne de réels clés pour mieux apprendre, mieux mémoriser et même (re)donner confiance en soi.
Cette formation devrait être dispensée à tous les étudiants.
Merci.

Fantástico! Vale muito a pena. É surpreendente como esses dois PhDs decifram e desvendam o funcionamento da mente humana para o ensino e aprendizagem. Impossível ser o mesmo depois de absorver esse conteúdo.

I have already started applying these techniques to my learning routine, and I am loving it. It brings great insight into how sleep is important for learning, which I have found to be helpful for me thus far.

I'm already leveraging the methods to work through procrastination. That said, there's plenty to love about this course and it really helped me develop more tools to help me process and remember new concepts.

This course allowed me to spend my "learning time" more effectively. I now have better note taking abilities and split the time in series of 25 mins to cover any topic.
Kudos to the instructors of this course,

Just great. You can just feel how passionate both tutors are towards teaching and spreading knowledge. I am sure the content will help me in many real-word situations (even when I am not aware of it). Thanks!

Totalmente valiosa la información, entrevistas, lecturas y reflexiones que se presentan en el curso. La verdad es que las 4 semanas fueron totalmente llevaderas con la estructura del curso. Recomendable 100%.

En realidad el sentimiento que mueve poder tener la posibilidad de descubrir este tipo de información va más allá de un curso, es romperse con las propias paredes y descubrir la vida de una manera más amplia.

I love this course, it is interesting and useful. Every learning video is short but powerful. Each learning unit is around 30 minuts, which fits my learning pattern a lot. Also the teachers are really lovely!

Nothing could be more crucial than learning how to learn, particularly when we spend our entire lives learning. I feel empowered to pursue more study, and make more changes to my life, in fact I already have.
