I really appreciate the time these guys invested in this course and am willing to take it again if they re-explain some topics in order to refresh some things that with time haven't stayed in my mind.

I could not enjoy this course more. I could not think that there are many techniques how to effectively learn. And it truly works.

Very nice course on introduction to learning and how to learn better. Also covers overcoming procrastination and emotional obstacles we have. The course covers some research on the subject and also teaches a few memorization techniques

Very interesting and helpful. The ideas and concepts are not always new, but explained and suggested the way so that you won't misuse them. Additionally there are interesting insights into the brain architecture and some hormones role.

I really learned a lot. My particular favourites were understanding about procrastination and overlearning which both resonated for me. The Pomodoro Technique and a few different memory techniques are great tools to help with learning.

Awesome. I have shown some of the videos to other people and they are amazed at the simplicity of the concepts and the clarity of the explanations. I am a better teacher now that I know how to be a better learner. Thank you so much.

It is a pity that this information was not taught to me at school and university. Maybe I would have been more successful in my studies, but that doesn't matter any more. Now I have the tools to learn better - that's all that matters.

The course material and optional readings & videos are awesome. The only thing I'd like to add is the instructors' obvious teleprompter reading while speaking to us. Yet, great course to take and explore new things about how to learn.

Brilliant job done by the Learning Team.
If one of my friends would struggle with learning or changing the way of thinking - I would suggest him to learn from this course.

Amazing course! It really changes the way you see studying and how the brain works. Even though it talks about some things that we hear all the time, common knowledge, it's nice to see there are a lot of serious papers reinforcing it.
