Best course ever! I learned a lot about how to learn effectively and I am eager to implement the techniques I learned from this course in my day to day learning processes. It is a fun time learning the course. Highly recommend if you want to get better at learning!

Good explanation of learning mechanism, tips on improving productivity and surpressing procrastination, worth taking for all people who are either currently learning or plan to learn again (like in my case, i took it almost 10 years after graduated from university)

I loved it!

Barbara is a kind and lovely teacher.

For everyone who's out there learning something, this course is for you. Even if you're an expert or newbie, if you're an athlete or a programmer. This course will take you further into developing the skills you want.

One of the most important courses I've ever taken... and I've already recommended this to nearly a dozen people.

I strongly feel this should be a mandatory prerequisite at every stage of formalized education (middle-school, high school, college, grad school, etc...)

Although, I had used or heard of some of the topics, going further into how the mind works and why those exercises work well was fantastic. The small chunks in each vid were great and the optional reading and videos were full of "easter eggs". Will be implementing!

Really useful no matter your age or what you are studying. You learn some really interesting things about how your brain works, as well as practical tips that will help enhance your learning. I'm really looking forward to using some of these techniques in practice.

At the outset a big THANKS to both the teachers. It was a wonderful course

i have got many tips about learning . It was amazing to know how our neurons develop . Pomeduro , perseverance and practice are the best techniques i learnt in this course. Thanks once again.

This course with its step by step approach and the brilliantly explained teachings of Barb and Terry was a blessing. The tests had even fun answers which made me laugh. This is a course recommend for anyone, including people who think they are no good at studying!

This course is highly recommended especially if this is your start of Coursera journey. It is quite helpful in improving learning abilities in aspects of efficiency and effectiveness. This is also the footstone for subsequent learnings of other areas of interests !

One of the best courses I have ever taken. Amazingly inspiring. It is truly systematic and integrated course that introduces how to learn more effectively and efficiently. Really appreciated Dr.Barbara Oakley, Dr.Terrence Sejnowski, and all the team. Thank you all.

Awesome first experience on Coursera. The teachers and the material are simply awesome. I can only recommend this course if you are looking to learn techniques to help you learn, fight procrastination, and build the confidence to face new intellectual challenges :)

It was my first course on Coursera and it was so awesome! Very helpful personalities, always lovely to listen to and learn from. Thank you so much for all the work that you have put into this project and course, it was a tremendous help for me and countless others.

Thank you, Dr. Barbara Oakley & Dr. Terrence Sejnowski. I briefly want to say that what you are teaching here is so helpful. You've helped me get better not only in learning how to learn but also in learning how to survive the day. I am gladful, thank you so much.

this course will be much more effective after you have encountered the difficulties caused by struggling with learning. And, you want to learn in a smarter and more efficient way. In particular, I find myself more confident in my academic growth after this course.

Learning how to learn is a great course for all who want to learn. Dr. Terrence Sejnowski and Dr. Barbara Oakley explain all the key aspects of learning. After completing this course I knew many key ideas, concepts etc. that help me to better my overall potential.

Excelente curso. Motiva y enseña como adquirir de forma exitosa la disciplina necesaria para estudiar y aprender lo que sea con metodologías y herramientas comprobadas. Recomiendo a todo estudiante de bachillerato y / o estudiantes universitarios de nuevo ingreso.

It is a great course, very easy and helpful. It will make you think in a more efficient way when learning a new subject. It is also very short, but it will leave you wanting more, and the optional further readings and interviews are really interesting and helpful.

I was skeptical about this course in the beginning. Based on the feedback I still decided to try it out and was pleasantly surprised. Extremely useful content is presented in a very simple and understandable manner. The course is very easy to finish and to digest.

Learning How to Learn not only taught me how to learn new skills but showed me the science behind it. What I learned in this course will help me throughout my life as I continue to learn and explore new things. I only wish I had known about this course in college!

Excellent course, with top class and wonderful teachers! Thank you so much Prof. Barbara Oakley and Prof. Terry Sejnowsky for you very comprehensive and pedagogic approach towards learning mechanisms. A special mention to your great sense of humour and simplicity.

Curso bem planejado. Didático e interessante. Te convida a entender o funcionamento do cérebro na aprendizagem. Inevitavelmente você passa a se observar mais e a rever as maneiras de ajudar o seu cérebro a aprender mais, o tornando um melhor aprendiz. Vale a pena.

I loved the fast-paced, engaging videos in this course! I didn't realize how poorly I was learning until Learning How to Learn. There are so many useful tips, tricks, and tidbits in the MOOC. If you want to enhance the way you retain informstion, take this course!

Thanks to this MOOC, learning new material and concepts will be so much more enjoyable and efficient, as well as teaching what I've learned to my current students (I'm a Language tutor and DIrector) Thank you Barb and Terry for such an awesome learning experience.

I can't stress enough how amazing this class is. I wish I had taken it before my bachelors degree, I'm sure I would have done even better! Two topics that were very relevant to me in this course were how to tackle procrastination and focused vs. diffused thinking.

I have learnt so much from this course.

It's help me understand how brain works better, how to study more effectively, how to prepare for test and so much more.

Thanks to the professors and staff that make this course available and free. I appreciate your hard work.
