The course is great. I found the second module (on chunks) especially useful. I've read several books on the topic of study techniques and they have helped me a lot. This course includes all of the main ideas I've learned from those books and more. I highly recommend it.

I really enjoyed this course. It starts off with basic topics we are all familiar with and then goes into how the mind works and how we can make the most out of learning. I really liked the course because it actually gave methods in how to learn (like the memory palace).

I found the course really informative as it outlines a scientific explanation of how the brain works and how better we could deal with it in order to achieve our goals. I feel these kind of courses should be included as mandatory life skills in from a school level itself

Very engaging and extremely well thought out course that reflexively employs the techniques and concepts it teaches. Be prepared to learn by teaching by creating a video summarizing what you learn on module 3 about Procrastination and Memory. I was not prepared for this.

It is a well compiled course and it really helped me to understand why we behave in certain ways in certain situations. Pomodoro technique is probably the best thing I have learnt in this course. I am able to manage my time and work more effectively. Thank you very much!

This is a great course to think about how you learn and find ways to both learn more efficiently and also to find more enjoyment in learning. After this course, you should have an expanded toolbox of study techniques and also a framework to approach new and old subjects.

I strongly recommend this course for learning more about how your mind works and how to be a better learner. It is extremely helpful and I strongly recommend it. It can change your perspective on so much and boast your confidence with subjects you feel less confident in.

Thank you for this amazing course, You've taught me new learning techniques and reminded the old ones, that I knew, but didn't use. I loved how you explained the information, visualized it, used different examples and made me think about my learning habits. Thanks again.
