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.

It was a wonderful journey of learning how to learn. Simple and effective. Wish i had come across something like this a little early in life. But better late than never. Keep up the good work. Thanks.

Good starting point for self education, wonderful teacher and mind blowing external interviews. This MOOC helped identify bad studying habits and gave me tools to start wining battles on procrastination. Altogether a very valuable course.

Awesome courses. Very helpful. I'll ask my kids to learn it. The courses should also be taught in, at least, high school. High school kids have so many courses to master and the course can help them learn more efficiently and effectively.

i like it in the way of trying some of the advices in real life. Some of them works and that's matter. I would be pleased if the authors can make a "Learning how to learn - part 2" course or something like that. Thanks for the knowledges.

I wholeheartedly recommend this course. It may not be the most precise, concise and scientific-fact-driven course on learning, but for me it hit the right spot on all fronts. By the end of it, you will be equipped with some useful tools.

This course made me relearn things that I knew 30 years ago: Sleep well; relax and tap into your defuse mode of thinking; chunk it together and make it a picture. Dr Oakley and Dr Tarrence explain the brain and its science clearly.

Probably the most useful course available on the internet today. You will learn something that will not only be useful for any other course you might want to take in the future, but also in many areas of your life: learning how to learn.

An exceptional course. I wish I had known all these techniques when I was in school. Its something all teachers and students should get their hands on to improve their efficacy and test results, and also helps to retain more information.

I think it was very useful to explain the methods of learning and how to take advantage of the entire parts of the human mind and focus on the content and not the output and its impact on the person in increasing awareness and creativity
