Great course and highly recommended!

Really well constructed modules and engaging hosts / content, with a healthy dose of joviality throughout the material helping to learn the concepts quickly.

Ideas were presented well, with complex concepts broken down very effectively. Clear commitment from the hosts in covering a lot of bases, as underlined in a vast array of additional (optional) materials and references to other sources.

By far the best course I did in my entire life ! I learned how to deal with a big range of problems that in one way or another everyone deal with. It doesn't matter If you are doing great in school or college or you are flunking, you will learn something new from this course. I found incredible how effective the techniques presented here work and why anybody never told me this techniques before. 5/5 recommended for everyone !

An essential course for all ages and disciplines. Truly beneficial to anyone learning any thing throughout his/her whole life. It includes how the brain works and how to use it efficiently; how to be productive and how to avoid procrastination; how to concentrate and how to memorize; and most importantly some tools and techniques. What is also worth noting is the concise and direct instructors. I highly recommend this course.

damn good,

i wish i could had all this info 30 and more years ago, indeed my past study methods are full of this error (and i really am surprised i have some sort of success... too bad i can't go back in time, but i will try to be better in any study i will do!) thanks a lot to teachers, clear and perfect english speaking (i'm italian and had no problem in understanding their speech.)

i suggest to do this course to all i could.

For full-time students and lifelong learners, this is the perfect course to add powerful tools to imporve deep learning. Being an experienced meditator, I could easily relate with the concepts of alternating focused mode and diffused mode learning. These are the very same concepts we use in the monastery. Eg: Timing your walks and sits (for instance 20min Walking meditation and 20 min Sit) and follow it by a 15 mins of break.

This course will help you develop a strong sense of how you learn. It will teach you about the neurological mechanisms of memory and skill development, as well as give you some critical strategies, tools, and tips so that you can take control of how you learn. Barbara and Terrence are fantastic professors and this was an awesome course that has changed the way I look at my own education, both within the classroom and outside!

Really helpful course that makes you understand how your brain works in order to lear how to learn better. It also gives tips and interesting techniques for studying and memorizing.Dr. Barbara Oakley and Dr. Terrence Sejnowski are so good at their job! They can explain difficult concepts in a very easy way. The whole course is designed with the same techniques that they explain, so you can understand better and learn better.

very good material to study learn how to learn. maybe I will study this course once more, using the skills which I learned from this course.

Actually, I have already been using a lot of skills, like Anki, Supermemo, Mind Map. But I thought still have too many aspects to enhance. And what I have learned from this course will help me a lot to study new things, especially while memories will loss as we getting older.

tks the team

It is a very informative and entertaining course, where every lesson you get great advice for truly learning things more effectively. I have heard about the pomodoro technique before but combined with the more scientific (and fun) explanations i was convinced to try it out, and i think that is the best part about this course, and it is that I finish motivated to keep applying the tips and tricks learned here. Thanks a lot :)

This course simply i consider one of the most powerful courses i have ever taken, also I have gotten enormous information out of this and this what i am planning to apply in my new life career. Finnaly the new skills i have learned are unforgetable and so ease to grasp and apply. One last thing learning how to learn wasn't only a course for me it was a part of mine now. Thank you drs for your efforts through the whole course

This course really helped me to figure out how to learn. I wanted to learn things in the past, start a course but drop interest halfway through. I wish I came across this course at least a decade back. Never the less I have a lot more to learn. Now I know how to learn effectively without dropping the interest. Thank you so much, Professor Barbara Oakley. They way she explained was amazing. I wish I meet here in my lifetime.

The course comprehensively covered the main areas of how to learn, in an interesting, easy to understand way. The videos retained your interest and the content was both interesting but extremely helpful. The instructors are fantastic and the optional reading and information contains a significant amount of information, which I would definitely recommend accessing. Overall, a fantastic course that I would strongly recommend.

overall this course is brilliant as the content is very well structured and clearly explained. I really like how most how the concepts are explained through graphics and metaphors, and i feel close to the two teachers.

one thing I would like to point out is that the last part of the 4th week learning is not exciting as the first three weeks as it's very focused the practical tips for tests, which I am already familiar with.

Перед началом курса у меня были сомнения на счет его эффективности, даже после прочтения нескольких позитивных отзывов про курс. Но постепенно по мере прохождения курса, я нашел очень много практичных и полезных советов и информации. Преподаватели очень преподносят информацию и интересной форме и с учетом в голове "краткость - сестра таланта". Курс ппрошел на одном дыхании и завершил раньше назначенного срока. Рекомендую.

I am not going to say that I am a procrastinate person, but what I am doing as a job is very tiring and prevent me to focus or doing things on time. This course "learning how to learn" has thought me how to mange the study time and how to reduce stress when I study. The break time in between, the repetition to help you memorize and how to schedule your time, all these tips help me so far a lot to focus better on my study.

I believe that this course has given me a better understanding of how my brain works, and how can I make the most out of it. This course also pointed out the harmful habit I do during studying and learning, how can I avoid these harmful habits and replace them with beneficial ones. I will start applying all the the techniques I learned during this course to enhance my learning experience and change my life to a better one.

What Barbara Oakley and Terrence Sejnowski, the educators, have done is breathtaking. This course gives such a great insight into how the brain works and how to overcome obstacles or illusions and therefore think more effectively, it is awesome. The only detail to improve is the subtitles, I was using Spanish subtitles and sometimes they were incomprehensible, not to mention that they were not in alignment with the speech.

Fantastic class. A lot of materials could be considered common knowledge or basic, but the course was very upfront about that. I fact, I believe that it was necessary in order to cater to a wide range of audiences and to benefit as many people as possible. While I didn't find the course to be challenging, I did take away a couple tools and tricks that will continue to benefit me throughout the lifelong journey of learning.

This is a wonderful course for any person who is interested in learning how to learn effectively. I highly appreciate the LHTL team's efforts to design the course content in such a way that person from any discipline is able to understand the concepts easily. In one word this was an awesome beginning to the effective learning journey. A big thank you to LHTL team! I am definitely going to share this course with my friends.

A brilliant course, i should complete it way earlier! The learning tips are so useful, it seems to me i'm automatically applying some of them already. Trying to implement mind maps for everything like presentation for work, a book presentation meeting etc, found this tool to be very useful. After making a mind map i can easily recall the whole speech or idea behind it! Still need to inhabit the chapter 4 tips into my life.

Whether it is for a Degree/Certification, Training, professional or studying; this is the best approach to understand and gives you the best tools for understanding and comprehending any topic. I highly recommend it!

I took the learning three months ago, and I just took the test; Dr Barb Oakley, hit the sweet spot... She has given me a gift. Thank you Dr. Barb. This is a wonderful course and you explain it with an ease

I started this course because I want to further my learning and venture into subjects out of my comfort zone. The course content, the delivery, the presentations, the duration of each session has been carefully crafted that the student is able to easily grasp it. I'm extremely grateful to Dr. Barbara Oakley & Dr. Terry Sejnowski for putting this course together and making it available for lovers of learning like myself!

I am a language teacher so I knew about chunking and SRS, but the rest of the material was new to me. Great explanations with solid graphics and the right energy make this a valuable course. It helps me with my own learning and also when teaching others. This is good to anyone, but it would be especially helpful for university students who want to do better, who already have the drive, but are lacking some valuable tools.

Barbara mam and Terry sir .....You were amazing.....!!!!!!! Barbara mam......You were really like my own teacher and I went into my kindergarten days...!!! Whenever I see you on screen...I get enthusiastic...I was struggling with learning problems....This course was really useful....This course must be taken by everyone....Now I have this confidence that I can learn any new thing that is unrelated to me...Smart isn't it;)

Muy interesante. Excelentemente explicado, todos los detalles, si me costo un poco por no estar completamente en Español, pero con lo que se de ingles me enseño muchisimas cosas.. si tengo tiempo en un futuro tomare el que están traduciendo al Espa{ol, por si se me paso algo.. pero si, este curso me ayudara en mi privado de la universidad, en organizar y ser mas efectivo en el trabajo, y si quiero estudiar nuevas cosas.
