The best class (online/offline) I've taken. So simple to understand and applicable to almost any subject or skill: music, language, science, etc.. This information should be taught in public schools. I recommend this class to everyone, or any age, background, or field.

Learning How to Learn is a great course, presented in short, easy-to-understand videos. The lecturers present the material in a professional yet engaging way. I would recommend it to anyone, regardless of area of focus, who wants to improve how they approach learning.

I love it, It consolidated everything that I know about studying. I knew a lot of this by experience
but never once have I thought some of them as related to my everyday learning. A lot of common
traps that we fall to every day is tackled. I suggest you take it as well.

Excellent course. It has really helped me in learning new things and also shedding that misconception that why should we keep things in mind when we have mobile, computers etc with us. This course in fact has encouraged me to learn many other new things. Thanks a lot.
