This course was a great insight for me, as I plan to do my Master degree soon. After working for 10 years I already forgot how to be a student and do your best at the studies. I am very positive the knowledge I got at this course will help me a lot!

Very Good! I was able to understand the relationship between the brain and learning. I thought it would be nice to study by making good use of the concentration mode and the rest mode. Also, you get a lot of information you need for learning. thank you.

This is one of the most comprehensive courses on the subject of learning there is. I just wish the topics and the way this course is made, would become a standard in all schools worldwide. This would make the educational process more fun and intuitive.

My first mooc and certainly not my last. I learned a lot of valuable information. I think the most valuable concepts was the diffused mode, the importance of retrival practise and the all important sleep.
I will certainly be back on Coursera soon again.

Barbara made it so easy to retain the information. Her voice is very soothing. Every time she said "I'm Barbara Oakley, thanks for learning how to learn." I would say "Thank you, Barbara." I loved this course and I'm grateful that I was able to take it.

I loved it! I will definitely apply all of what i learned to my life. I liked a lot that it approached all of the test taking situation and anxiety tips to handle it. I wish i had this course several years before, but well, it's never too late, right?

Inspiring and actionable. The instructors were engaging (loved them both, as well as their "guests") and the classes were fun! It truly re-ignited a passion for learning and helped me get out of the "low-energy" mode I found myself in for the last year.

We just jump into learning in schools and continue to struggle in it through our life. But we should stop for a while and see how we learn and check if we can improve our learning ability. By taking this course, you will improve on learning efficiently.

The course gives an insight into your brain and its powers and limitations. The best thing to do is to experiment the learning techniques on this course itself. The tone of the course instructors is also very friendly. Nothing is difficult, if you try.

Awesome Course to grasp how to learn and i love the way the videos leads you through the outline without being boring or making me give up. It could be the recurring quizzes that help e stay tuned or the positivity from the teachers/instructors. Thanks!
