I'm only on the first week, and I started this class as an ABSOLUTE skeptic, but it really is helpful. I mean... I even feel like I knew a lot of this, and EVEN SO the class is illuminating, motivating, and truly feels like it's making a difference for me. I can't explain it, but I can definitely recommend it.

Love it. Absolutely fantastic! Interesting to the bone!

The way of sharing knowledge make a difference from MOOC to MOOC. Barbara is all heart and knowledge. A authentic teacher, eager to make people think and learn. Absolutely, adore her!

Thank you, from the bottom of my heart. Thanks to you I'm a better Mom.

=)

Taking this class has given me solutions to my biggest problems when it comes to learning and studying. If you are a person who is struggling with memorizing, studying, procrastination, and or anything really. I would highly recommend taking this class; you have nothing to lose but a lot to gain from doing so.

I am not even halfway done with finishing the course, but it is already helping me in learning. It is a shame that knowledge like this is not given to us at the very beginning of our education. That way a lot of human potential would not be lost like it currenty is being lost when children are sent to schools.

Great Course!

Very easy to understand and apply in daily basis.

I would recomend that If you're starting to participate in MOOCs courses and specialization, consider to include at the very begining to take this Course.

Barbara Oakley and her team did a good job preparing this amazing workshop.

Very informative and helpful. I learnt new skills and new interesting information. I was able to believe more in my learning ability. I was able to learn why certain things I already know are, in fact, important. I've gained some valuable skills which I am already putting in to practice now! Very worth-while.

I got to know a lot of interesting information about brains and how it works with respect to learning. Also I got to know that we are not doomed the day we are born, we can learn anything we want :) That is really important for me, because I want to try to learn absolutely new subject to me :) Wish me luck :)

it is really a helpful course for me. Learning new subjects effectively and change the leaning materials to long term memory is important in working environment, I think the requirement is not just limited the test in college. Grasping the learning skills and raise the good learning habits is benefit for life

This course has alot of valuable information in it. I was studying memory prior to this and had learned many of the techniques before this course but Learning How to Learn is still and great first step. I'm glad I worked this course and I look forward to building on this foundation with more Coursera courses.

A very well planned course. The videos are short, yet substantial and with very solid science behind. The whole structure of the program is a very good example of how to design an on-line course. I found it incredibly useful both for myself and for designing courses for my University. Very highly recommended.

I never knew I needed a learning reform! After enrolling in this course, I realized that there is something more to learning- it's not just coffee and long evenings. Overall, this course helped me a lot in my academic pursuit of attaining knowledge and internalizing its underlying concepts. Thank you so much.

I recommend this course to everyone! I cannot express in words how much value I gained from this. It's short and packed with excellent information. I am glad to see that some of they ways i have always tackled studying have been studied. Please do yourself a favor and sign up for this. You will not regret it.

I can't tell how much I enjoyed the course and the virtual meetings with Prof. Barbara Oakly and Prof. Terrence Sejnowski. With all the wisdom and inspiration they shared I am even a happier life-long learner now. What I can give in return is a wholehearted gratitude. This has been a fantastic course indeed!

I was a bad learner all my life and signed up for the course for some useful advices and practices. What I obtained is much more. It is not only about learning methods but also about practices that I can use in my work and private life. The learning materials and tests are very enjoyable. Thank you very much!

This course is awesome! It provides you with all the tools and tricks you need to enhance your learning. No matter what you study, you can take out a bunch of useful tips from this course and start applying it right away.

It really helped me master new ideas and concepts quickly and more efficiently.

Thank you!

A very informative and eye opening course. Important concepts were discussed in very simple and practical terms. I highly recommend this course for anyone who is interested in learning new subjects, skills or languages. The materials discussed in this course will be very useful and will stay with you forever.

As someone who doesn't have the time for a formal education, I try to learn through my everyday experiences, no matter how ordinary or monotonous they may appear. This course opened my eyes to tips and tricks to make the best of my learning, regardless of the task I happen to be involved in. Thanks for the h

¡Excelente! El curso es realmente práctico, completamente actual y recomendable para cualquier estudiante, incluidos los autodidactas. La Dra. Oakley es amena, clara e informada en sus explicaciones. El Dr. Sejnowski acompaña las lecciones y el material optativo es útil y necesario. Imperdible, y es gratuito.

This is an awesome course that might remind you of living and working differently. The materials are well organized in a structured way that is very easy to follow - focus/diffuse mode, pomodoro technique, chunking, memory palace, etc. All these will lead to a fulfilling life if you take the course seriously.

In plain simple words is a perfecly planned and elaborated couse and really helpful.

Elaborating a bit more I really think is excellent, every other couse should give a recomendation to start this couse because no mater the subject you intend to learn it will help you. It even helo you to have a healthty life.

In conclusion, "Learning How to Learn" is a must-take course for anyone seeking to enhance their learning abilities. The combination of engaging content, effective teaching methods, practical strategies, and broad applicability makes it a standout resource in the realm of online learning. Highly recommended!

In fact, I can't describe how useful this role is. Thank you Barbara, Dr. Signovsky, all the participants and Coursera. In fact, I was leaving high school. It is difficult in my country, but after finishing the course, I decided to return to complete my education and get the certificate. Thank you very much.

A wonderful course especially as I'm a adult learner with bad study habits and no tools! This course has given me new tools to learn better in the future. This course has given me the confidence to tackle any subject with new perspective. Great tutors, fantastic course material and so much more! Thank You :)

Thank you for these great tips. I took notes about a lot of stuff, and that course helped me to focus more on my online courses and how to study for them. I really enjoyed watching Dr Barbara's videos and the animation in them, as well as listening to Dr Terry's wide knowledge. Thank you so much. Stay safe!!

Powerful learning methods, relevant examples, and well-documented studies. I enjoyed leasing to the professors and as well to their special guests. I recommend this course to students and people like me who want to learn something new and are interested in the best way to use their memory and brain capacity.
