The course delivers what the title tells.
Concise, well structured modules with a good mix of science (e.g. how the brain works 101 on memory and learning), learning techniques and tips (e.g. battle procrastination, how to prepare for tests).
Overall an enjoyable experience and worth the time.

Все дается по делу, ничего лишнего с подробными объяснениями, почему нужно делать так. Остался в полном восторге от курса. Если Барбара будет читать, то технику аналогичную запоминанию знакомых предметов в комнате практиковали еще древнегреческие ораторы для запоминания пунктов своей речи ;)

Everyone would have their own approaches/tools to learning. I feel that this course would help one to confirm if the approaches/tools they use is really helping them ? And also, it would help one to equip with several more approaches that others in the world use for learning. Keep learning!

Excellent course, it takes you to a very easy going course with constant use of the tools to reinforce the facts that those same tools are the ones needed to learn faster and better. Highly recommended for young students in their degree careers. Tools for the restless mind of many of us!!!!

Great scientific tips on how to study better. The course itself is prepared with these tips, so we will (thankfully) have a hard time to forget the metaphors, analogies and visualizations presented during the course. There's also some interesting interviews to learn more from amazing people.

I am 32 and still find this course very useful. It can be useful for a high school student or PhD student, or someone like me who just want to keep learning.
The neuroscience facts are very useful although short, and the techniques to train memory and work on procrastination are also great.
