Definitely something I will recommend to anyone that even mentions learning. I now suffer from less stress when I get stuck, and don't panic if something doesn't go as I planned. Made my learning and life in general far easier to handle and thrive at.

This is a magnificent course that should be a prerequisite before taking any other course. It helps you understand learning itself and put you in a better position to learn faster and better thus making learning more enjoyable rather than be a burden.

This course should be taught as a requirement at all universities. To all language learners... please learn how to learn, do not waist your time on silly strategies! This is the way I should have been taught all along. Thank you for this opportunity

I wish I had had access to this course years ago. It not only improves the way you learn so you learn more deeply but it reduces the amount of time you would spend studying without necessarily improving your understanding or retention of the material.

This course has definitely helped me and I highly recommend it. You’ll get science-based insights on how your brain works and it debunks familiar fallacies. You’ll get very useful concrete steps you can take to succeed on tests, in class and in life.

I'm constantly recommending this course (and the book "A Mind for Numbers," to new college students, adult learners, really everyone I know. I never learned how to study and it wasn't intuitive for me - none of my previous attempts was successful.

It's a course that has definitely refined the way I learn. I had better understood why some techniques work and some don't. I am excited to try different learning techniques that I picked up in this course and apply them to my learning in the future.

The course was easy to take and provided an overview of the learning process. What I like about the course is it remained committed to focusing more in the process and not in the product. Thank you to the wonderful professors that creates this video!

The information provided in this course is invaluable. The instructors were welcoming, down-to-earth, and jovial. What I'm taking away from this course will be a force multiplier for my continued education and any new endeavor I tackle in the future.
