Naturally we all learn daily basic, however to see the real process behind learning you must take this course. As instructors says, this course is manual for learning how to learn. When you read and understand manual you can control a equipment, likewise when you know the learning manual you can control your own learning

This course changed my life. In this decades, people lost concentration, although it's not their fault(include me). It teaches you how to learn more efficient and get more concentration, and finally it can change you life if you practice the skills frequently. Hope you guys have a fun here. Thanks everyone in this course!

Useful stuff for everyone. Students, teachers, parents, the professors are clear, engaging, and experts in their field. I cannot speak to how exciting it was for someone to inform me about how learning occurs, with lots of applicable methods. Easy to learn, engaging, and interesting,
5 stars to these wonderful professors.

This course was easy to follow, yet full of extremely useful elements. I have greatly enjoyed every lesson, and I am grateful to the instructors for creating a course that is at the same time fundamental and accessible to people with tight schedules. It's really never to late to learn how to learn. Absolutely recommended.

Thanks for this course! I didn't know how important physical exercises was for learning until I saw the videos about it! There are so many useful tips for learning how to learn. I will put as many tips/lessons as I can on Anki so I can take all the lessons that I learned on the past 4 weeks with me through my whole life!

After learning this course, I had some mental tricks and some useful knowledge to help me learn better at my subjects. It's even more beneficial since I'm changing to a new major, and I'm so overwhelmed at first. However, this course calm me down and make me realize I can learn anything if I know how to learn efficiently

A distinctive course I advise everyone to enrol in. It covers most aspects of the learning process, as it is useful from the academic point of view and also from the process. It does not matter your educational level or the type of your professional career. Guaranteed benefit, a course that will show you the way to learn

Really great course and I'm practising a number of the suggestions and tips that the course makes. Found it to be really helpful, as I'm coming back to study somewhat later in life. Tutors were great, really enjoyed the optional interviews. The accompany book is a fantastic read. Wish I'd found this course years ago.

A must take course! This is absolutely worthy and everyone should be taking this course for anything that you would like to study. Language learning, Calculus, Chemistry, Anatomy class, anything will be easier if you understand the basic concept and methods of learning. After this course there's nothing you cannot learn.

I took the course as I am trying to get certified for some new technologies during the lock-down. I wasn't expecting much but I was amazed how this course is applicable to every days life. I recommend this course to all, students, employees, employers, stay home parents..etc I might even recommend it to my future kids :D

My first course on Coursera. Amazing tutors and a lot of new ideas and techniques to enhance one's learning ability. How to fight motivation, stress and illussions of learning. How to improve memory. How to prepare and take any test....Very good course material indeed!
Thank you Barb and Terry,
thank you very much Coursera

Un gran curso, ayuda a entender como aprender de mejor forma y como visualizar y enfocar nuestro estudio para mejorar. las técnicas compartidas y enseñadas son un gran aprendizaje para llevar a cabo y que mejoraran nuestro rendimiento, pero no solo en el ámbito académico, sino en gran parte de nuestra estructura de vida.

Really fun and informative course. You might be a great student and do some or all of these things your entire career. Maybe you didn't know why they worked for you. This course will help with that. Maybe you're like me and have never been particularly effective with your study time. This course will also help with that.

I really enjoyed the course because if you don't have good learning habits, you will get all needed clues and if you know already how to learn it reminds you very good tips.
They have a great sense of humour which makes sometimes the lessons and the tests more entertaining.
I do recommend this course for sure.
Thank you.

"Learning how to Learn" was a very interesting and enjoyable a course. A definite recommendation for those who want to improve their abilities to learn, be it a beginner or someone well versed in the arts of learning. The information was very helpful and easy to digest, and the suggested readings are well worth the read!

I took this class prior to any others on coursera because I wanted to make sure I would get as much as I could out of these courses. I'm glad I did. Using many of the techniques they suggest I have been able to study and retain much of the information I have been learning. I wish I had known about this many years ago!

The course is quite easy to grasp and understand. Many of the material offered seems to be simple and relatively logical. However, it alludes us to put all of these concepts into one course/material in order to be consciously aware on how to effectively and efficiently learn. Definitely a great course that I recommend !

Exceptional material and exceptional explanations. I will over it many times again. Thank you so much for putting this up for free. As a color note, the videos and style have this very funny '80s look to them. I really thought they were filmed in the '80s and shocked when I learned it was actually somewhere around 2014.
