An amazing course that teaches you to practice self-knowledge, understanding your bad habits, accepting procrastination and how to stop it, so you can improve your learning skills. I highly recommend this to anyone that want's to learn better, stay motivated not only on college classes but also at work.

This was my first course on coursea and I enjoyed it. I found the material beneficial and useful.

I particularly liked the interviews as well; very helpful.

I felt that this was a very practical place to start for my first course before embarking on learning new subjects that I've never thought of before.

I really enjoyed this course. The instructors were engaging and fun. The repeated some important points effectively. The jokes and things were a bit silly but very memorable and fun. I would like the ability in the mobile app to be able to pre-download videos and to slightly speed up the playback speed.

Great course!!! The teachers are really really great!! You can see in the videos that they are amazing. A lot of new knowledge.

I think everyone who is involve with economics, development and education of course have to take this course. Well, this course will be a huge help to anybody in any field also.

Este curso deveria ser matéria obrigatória na grade de todos os cursos em todas as universidades. Sendo mais ousado, este curso merece ser ministrado nas escolas de todo o mundo. Gratidão aos autores quecederam seu tempo para fazer essa obra e assim potencializar o aprendizado de milhares de pessoas.

This course has helped me in more ways than I can count. It has brought back my passion for learning, gave me valuable tools that I couldn't properly utilize (it was like I was trying to build a shelf with children's toys prior!), and made me excited at the prospects of my future. Thank you so much.

I have learned so much about how to learn. At 72 it is a little dismaying to realize all the study techniques I have employed in my life were less than effective. Accounts for how little I have retained from the days gone by as opposed to those subjects I actively engaged in and did the necessary work.

This course is beyond amazing! I really enjoyed learning these programs. And it really helped me a lot in the moment, I'm sure it will bring me more benefits in the coming semester! I'll miss learning this course and I will definately recommand this amazing course to those around me! Thank you so much!

10/10 will recommend to anybody who is trying to learn anything. Doesn't matter if you are a pro player or a beginner you will at least get a better insight to your own thinking. PS: When you reach the climax you will realized that's the same thing the course is trying to teach; "Oppose your Dogmatism"

An eye opening course I will remember forever, glad I took this seriously. Now, looking back to my college days, I can say how inefficiently was I trying hard to learn. I have now clear ideas how should I learn and move forward in life. This definitely is a course for everyone, student or professional.

I found Coursera very beneficial and helpful. It broadened my ways of studying in a way that I feel more confident in my self to get my work done in a more organized and self efficient way and less stressed about taking tests now that I have found good methods to calm my stress when doing so. Thank you

This course has truly changed my take on the studying and learning process. It was structured in a very learner friendly way that scaffolds the information. I have already recommended both Coursera and Learning How to Learn to more than one person and I hope they enjoy this experience as much as I did.

This course opened a lot of my learning mistakes. I'll keep studying with more patience and perseverance, however now, it will be more efficient as i won't drop learning because 'I'm stupid. Everyone else is smarter than me.' and won't listen to others that i cannot accomplish something. Thanks Barbara

Great introduction to current understanding of effective and efficient learning techniques ie. recall, interleaving, spaced repetition, pomodoro etc.. New neurons forming throughout life in the hippocampus (memory) and recess/exercise is the best enforcer of these new memories/learning....as is sleep!!

Great and easy to understand material. The course is easy to follow-through and contains a lot of useful information that you're not likely to learn in depth in most classes at school. The teachers are very experienced and include many examples/real-life situations to help you get through the material.

This course is fantastic. Complicated neuroscience is boiled down and made accessible to a student of any age. The content is described so thoroughly by the professors. I have learned techniques that I can apply in my own life to improve my productivity, memory, and study habits. So happy to have foun

This is good course to improve your learning skill, we know what should we do to be more effective in learning and better in remember the contents of the lesson or topic that we are learning. Thank you very much to authors for having this great course with clear explanation, guide and concrete example.

This is a game changer. It blew me away to see how just a couple of hours a week for a month could change my approach to learning (and teaching too) so radically and improve it so much. I am deeply indebted to Mrs Oakley and Mr Sejnowski for providing such important knowledge in such an easy going way.

I find this course extremely valuable for me, even though I finished my studies couple of years ago. Now I look at the process of studying from different perspective with very well understanding the processes involved in understanding and memorizing things. I really recommend this course for everyone!

This course really changed my process of learning , I learned very important things that I didn't know . things that I learned about brain diffuse and focused mode , exercise to create new neurons and pomodora Technic were really interesting and impressive , thanks a lot

Extremely well done! Very campy at times, but this really helps make the concepts 'stick'. Barb practices what she teaches, is very passionate about this subject and is a real inspiration. I sure wish I had learned this stuff before working through 2 BS and 1 MS! Am a little sad the course is over.

The course is rich in content, clear and consise, delivered in a manner that is understable even to the layperson. I am greatly indebted to the Instructors for sharing these timely, precious and eye opening nuggets from the wealth of years of research and their personal experiences. Thank you so much.

This course has been very helpful to me. When it comes to memorizing, the points where I've had the most trouble and were in question, have been answered right here in this module. I will remember to use some of the techniques given in this module as I move on through more Coursera courses.

Thank you.

I have learned so much by doing this course from how to stop procrastinating, to the different types of memory, and not to mention the helpful tips, but I don't wanna get too far into the details of how it helped me, so I think you will just have to try it for yourself. I highly recommend this course.

This was a phenomenally helpful course. I suffered a traumatic brain injury in 2015 which seriously affected my short-term memory, as well as my spatial and temporal reasoning skills, and Learning How to Learn really helped me in terms of finding new compensatory strategies. I took the course twice!
