"If give a man a fish, you will feed him for a day;

but if you teach a man to fish you will feed him for a lifetime"

This is by far the most useful and practical course that each one of us should follow.

Wonderful course, which helped me to learn some of the most important skills a learner can acquire: the knowledge how learning works, what influences it, and how to adjust it to achieve the best outcome.

Provided some great information that can be applied to everything that you do, not just school. I appreciated the instructors making the complete connection between how brains function to how you learn.

It's good course. That help me a lot. It let me know much about how the brain work and memorize the information.

But my mother language is not english. It's a little challenge for me to take this course.

The instructors communicate clearly and everything seems so simple under their explanation! Most importantly, the theories of this course are backed by scientific result, which makes them more trustable.

This was an amazing experience. Immediately I was able to utilize what I learned in every day practice. The lessons are broken down into easily consumable bits and you can follow at pretty much any pace.

Thanks a lot to our teacher - this course is not only one of the most usefull that I ever studied but also very good-organized and gentle made.

Спасибо большое от Ваших учеников из России, Barbara Oakley.

Really helped open my eyes to ideas and concepts that I may have subconsciously known, but hadn't put terms to, nor truly understood effective methods to learn with.

Thank you Dr Oakley, and Dr Sejnowski!

Despite 2 Universities I did discovered some new approaches to the way how to learn more effectively. In addition, it inspires to trust yourself and be proud of what are you doing. But "doing" is the key

It was great help in my study. It was better than my expectation. It covered many topic and lectures were easy to understand. Thank you to UC, Dr.Barbara Oakley, Dr.Terrence and coursera for this course.

I really enjoyed this course. It reiterated my belief that if one has the passion and perseverance, there is no limit to learning. The faculty were amazing. The interviews and extra reading material were

Very interesting and rewarding class. Wish I could have learn this long time ago. It will helps in many areas of my professional and personal life. Easy to follow, even for a non-native english speakers.

That was a very nice experience to learn various theories and to undergo various tests. I enjoyed a lot. Short span of videos helped me to focus the material which you were providing during thesessions.

بصراحة الدورة مفيدة جدا و لو أنها لا تملك حل جذري للمشاكل التي أعاني منها و لكنني أكثر من سعيد لأنني تمكنت من إتمامها ... شكرا جزيلا للدكتورة باربارا و الدكتور سيغنوفسكي و كل من ساعد في تقديم هذه الدورة

The course which will definitely turn me into a great learner. The confidence and techniques it gave throughout the course will be helpful in learning the tougher concepts I signed up for. Thanks again.

One of the best courses I have ever taken! It is really worth it. I have learned several techniques to improve my learning and I will keep applying them in order to be that great developer I long to be.

"Change your thoughts change your life", this course certainly helped me strengthen my perspective about learning in general, I have come out as more confident and now I look problems in a better light.

I liked this course.

I've found useful tips, how to learn new things.

I've discovered my major mistake when I'm studying. It's the illusion of competence.

Now, I know how to struggle with it.

Thank you.

The mix of theoretical and practical information makes this course particularly valuable to understanding how best to approach learning new subjects. Its made me very excited to tackle my next subject.

i have enjoyed this course so much, the instructors are really good ones. They know how to deliver the material and concepts in a way that the students will understand, i love every lesson in this ourse

This course gives you the most important tools to open your mind and build your life with whatever you need to do what you want to do. Then, just do it!

Thanks Prof. Oakley and Prof, Sejnowski, excelent!

Muito feliz com o conteúdo que o curso oferece. Me proporcionou uma visão mais ampla sobre todo o aprendizado e poderei, com as técnicas e ideias adquiridas no curso, melhoras como aprendiz e professor.

I wish I had taken this course while I was in college. I love the graciousness of Barbra. The interviews with various experts was so helpful. I recommend it to anyone one working or studying. Thank you.

Des vidéos ludiques, claires, des tests, bref tout le matériel et l'attitude bienveillante de grands professeurs sont présents à travers ce cours. Car apprendre, c'est toute la vie, ça ne s'arrête pas !

Highly recommended for any student. I am even thinking of doing a full research project using the strategies for children outlined in her book on Amazon with children diagnosed with language disorders.
