Brilliant course! I learned some new lessons and also reinforced my good learning habits. It also made me reflect on my learning Journey from high school to undergrad and the advice here perfectly matches my experience. I will be starting a masters degree this summer and the advice here will be handy.

Excellent self paced class. The videos are very interesting and I found myself watching more than I intended to do in one sitting. Loved the quizzing after each module that made sure I understood the information before I moved on. Thank you Barbara Oakly and Dr. Sejnowski for your wonderful teachings!

Absolutely recommend this to anyone trying to improve their learning efficiency. Lots of great techniques and information about how the brain works and how to improve its abilities. The interviews give valuable insight from prominent academics on their habits and way of thinking that makes them great.

A truly outstanding course! I wish I knew all about all these techniques when I was at school and university, let alone having such supportive and knowledgable teachers! I look forward to receiving Barbra's email every Friday, they are jam packed full of useful resources. Highly recommend this course.

This is the most exciting course that I studied in my life! Now I know how to improve the quality of my self-education. Also this course will help me as a teacher of mathematics to make classes more and more interesting and understandable for my students. Thank you so much for this unique opportunity!

This is a wonderful school. Would highly recommend it to all students and more importantly all teachers at all levels. I am hoping to use these great learning tips in my class and students. Hope to translate it to my native language of Odiya so that more people can be exposed to these important ideas.

Many things in here should really be taught in fundamental higher level education courses. Although some of the videos are outdated, the concepts are not. Barbara does a pretty good job explaining things and even using the course and tests themselves to showcase how well some of these techniques work.

A great course for helping you understand how your mind works. I have learned that learning need not be something laborious but rather it can be a fun journey with the right tools and techniques. I look forward to applying what I have learned to all aspects of my life, not just in my formal education.

if you’re looking to enhance your learning skills, “Learning How to Learn” is a must-take course. Professors Oakley and Sejnowski have crafted an engaging and practical learning experience. Kudos to Coursera for making this accessible to learners worldwide! Thank You Team for such a wonderful course.

Estupendo curso. Me he encontrado físicamente mal al aprender que mis métodos de estudio, los que aprendí hace casi 20 años son incorrectos.

También es una gran ayuda para aprender a identificar qué cosas te hacen procrastinar y ser más efectivo resolviendo problemas o intentando aprender nuevas cosas

the course was awesome. I have gained a lot of methods and approaches to learning.

The importance of sleep to remove toxins and increase concentration.

Optimizing 2 states of the brain to remember lessons longer, from short-term memory to long-term memory

Thank ProfBarbara Oakley Dr. Terrence Sejnowski

This was one of the most interesting, amazing and wonderful courses I have even enrolled. The Instructor was an amazing teacher. Her smile and brief and clean explanation made this course outstanding. I really enjoyed and learned a lot of new things in this course. Thank you so much for your efforts.

This is one of the best courses I've ever taken with regards to learning. The professors don't only teach you the theory, they also show you how it is applied by interviewing the experts. It really makes a big difference. I just can't thank the professors enough for producing such a wonderful course.

Among the many valuable lessons, I have learned in this course is the power of the brain when you recognize, nourish and use it. Some techniques existed passively in my life but now I use them intentionally to learn and be creative. It's been an insightful journey, Am glad I have learnt how to learn.

It is so refreshing to get all these explanations, given with so much dedication and kindness.These are things we should learn from the start, at school, instead of being given wrong clues about how to enjoy learning. Actually, this courses proves it is possible (and shows how to make it). Thank you.

I found this course incredible. It was organized in a way that practiced what it taught - a mixture of logical lessons, stories, and examples. I'm beginning medical school soon and am so grateful to the creators of this course for giving me a foundation of tools before I begin the journey. Thank you!

This class has been fantastic in teaching me the different ways the brain works to learn/absorb and remember new areas of interest. It was my first class I signed up for on Coursera and I'm so glad I took it. I've gotten so much from it, thank you guys!! It has been wonderful learning about learning.

This is a very good course. It shows valuable insights on how our brain works and how to utilize to its full potential. This course also provides lot of valuable techniques which can be applied irrespective of domain. I think every student must go through this course and apply the methods prescribed.

I enjoyed the course very much. The lecture videos and reading materials were very easy to understand. This course will change your entire perspective on learning and make it a rather enjoyable process.I recommend it to everyone out there keen on effective learning, regardless of the field of study

Awesome! I took this course together with my 3 children, Ethan Lee (13), Claryn Lee (10) and Jolynn Lee (8) and we believed it was and will prove to be beneficial for all! Thanks so much Dr. Oakley and Dr. Sejnowski and the Learning How To Learn Team!! God Bless, from Eric Lee, Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia

I really liked the course. It was accessible, and the pedagogy was great. Whether or not I will use the techniques I don't know, but I definitely feel I have gotten a theoretical insight into the neurological processes surrounding learning and the practical ways to enhance these processes. Thank you!

This class was a delight to learn cos Dr. Oakley was very methodical and joyful in teaching. Highly recommended! :) I now have a better appreciation for learning and looking forward to apply all in my daily life. Thank you Coursera and Dr Barbara Oakley for this wonderful course! Much appreciated :D

Dammn. This should be something taught to every single human let alone student on this planet. Learning is something all of us do, every day whether we like it or not and having these amazing insights into the mechanisms and tools required to modify and upgrade our learning process is A SUPERPOWER!

Yeah, It was good, some of the concepts explained in this course were very common but we often forget the common things so this course helped me to remember and apply the things that were common in my life. The Instructor had a beautiful smile that was very refreshing. Overall an outstanding course.

This course really helped me learn better. From diffused modes to how to avoid procrastination, they also love to bring humor into what they are talking about. For example, they talk about zombie modes and your octopus modes. So for whoever wants to learn learning better, this is the course for you.
