I joined the course to acquire learning tools and techniques for me and for my children. As someone who believe that knowledge and learning are values for life, I think that this course is essential for anyone who wants to learn or to teach effectively. Mandatory and great!

Very good course in the way it is taught and very essential before you attempt to study and learn anymore on Coursera or elsewhere. I wish I had such a course in my school days! I am going to recommend this course to all people I meet - especially students and young people!

Fantastic. Difficult topics are nicely simplified and it has ton of really great ways to improve your learning style. I was also very surprised by some of the ideas, but I have since found that the techniques that I was most surprised about, are the ones that work the best.

Para mi es un buen curso, me gusta los profesores como explican y me gustan las entrevistas, pero ademas me agrada mucho que tenga traducción en español, no todos los cursos lo tiene y pues parte de estas técnicas es para poder aprender un idioma, gracias y continuen igual.

This course opened my perspectives so much! I realized the habits that I have developed over the years were inefficient! Dr. Oakley and Dr. Sejnowski helped me understand how I actually learn. They actually do what they teach and the interviews prove what they are teaching.

That course really helped/is helping me in my daily life and in my academical/professional life. I'm sure I've got to apply these notions of memory to become a better student, and as a teacher I want to show my students how to improve their results by Learning How to Learn.

This course gives greater insight into what we use everyday. The information was useful in helping to identify the current habits being practiced. I would recommend this course to anyone who wants to improve and maximize the natural resource that we have, that is our brain.

Learning How to Learn is an outstanding course , which helps you in your quest to be a life long learner. The frameworks discussed and the cognitive insights will change the way you view learning - for ever ! It helps you to discover the vibrant learner hidden within you.

Very valuable course I think people should take before they go to college or even high school. There are some very interesting concepts, such as diffuse thinking mode and chunking. I appreciate the two professors' kind demeanors. I feel very encouraged taking this course.

this course very helpful and it has very good improtant info, as well as it has great additional resources interviews with experienced people, links to useful articles .. I recommend anyone to take it and add this info to their culture basket with applying these advice.

This course seemed like something excellent to me, something that helps and tells people how to better organize each component and behavior of our mind and body to carry out some activity. I recommend this course and thank you for your time of explanation, I have loved it.

The course introduced me to a lot of information about process of learning and how our brain works that I didn't know before. Some of the tips for learning I was already doing myself but didn't understand why. And others I will include in my routine from now on. Thank you!

There were so many things I did not know about learning and sleeping and now I know that in order to be an effective learner I have to sleep to remove the metabolic toxin in my brain, not try and learn with a tired brain. Thank you for this course, I am very glad I did it.

Brilliant course! Very well structured and easy to follow. The mini quizzes are also very helpful in retaining the material. Barb is practical teacher giving us tips on how to apply research in daily tasks while Terrence gives us insights on behind the scenes neuroscience.

Im a better learner now, with an important update about how to learn. With this course I have acquired multiple new tools and methods that helps me to improve my learning. Thank you Coursera for made this course possible, Thank you Barbara & Terrence! Happy learning! :)

Excellent course! Every body should take it. I wish I had read this when I was in college. I seem to have been using only my focus mode all along. I am looking forward to using the the tools that I learnt from this course! Thanks Dr Barbara Oakley and the other professors!

The techniques and explanations learned in this course are helping my learning to have a better flow. The Pomodoro and the recall technique already helped me to overcome the procrastination barrier of a subject that I had to study and it actually worked! I recommend it!

This course is fantastic, I am at the beginning of this journey and the way I think and learn has changed and is changing a lot because of this course, I am sure that the content of this course will take the one that applies all content to success in various areas of life.

This Course is just what I needed for helping mw with my procrastination. The tools and ideas given are amazing, and Barbara is incredible in her deliverance. Very happy i am taking this course. Looking forward to my final year of my degree to put everything into practice.

i recommend this course to everyone who is serious at studies. only "effort" is not enough for success, you should know how to better utilize the effort and this is exactly what this course addresses. i am glad i was among thousands others who learned "learn how to learn".

Highly recommend this course. This is by far one of the most valuable course that I have learnt. Not only do you enhance your knowledge about human brain but you can also practice all these techniques in every aspect of your life. Please give it a try, you will love this.

Best course completed all the video lectures, quizzes, and assignments in the course's first iteration. In the Next iteration, I'll try to complete the optional honorary assignments after that I'll re-watch the video lecture to solidify my understanding of the assignment.

This is a mindset changing course. It impacted my life for sure. I have learned and used its learning strategies in my daily life. I even tought my family members and firends about what I have learnt. I'm planning to implement it in my future teaching and training events.

In terms of content and the value of what they're teaching you this is a 10/10 easily. Just wish I had learned all this when I was younger. The only negative is the video and editing quality, but that's really nitpicking and not really relevant anyway. Worth every minute.

Although I've previously earned a BA from a 4 year university, since high-school I've felt a bit lost in my learning direction. This course helped restore my confidence in my ability to learn new subjects, and provided the tools that I hope to use for the rest of my life.
