Awesome course! I didn't actually feel any pressure while watching the videos and attempting the quizzes. I didn't have to work on absorbing the lectures as the wonderfully designed quizzes and assignments helped me absorb the lectures.

Excellent course! It almost begins to repeat data or advice, but comes at scenarios from different perspectives, so it was always fresh! I cannot recommend this course enough for anyone who is interested in learning more efficiently. A+

Where was this course when I was a student!? I am grateful to have the opportunity to learn how to learn. Using effective techniques and learning what methods work vs don't was extremely helpful. I know I will take this with me forever.

If I have to choose only one course from Coursera, I would say I would pick this course. I regret that I should have learned this course while I studied in high school and university. I learned a lot from this course. Thank you so much!

A refreshing perspective on the science behind learning. The course also introduces a set of simple tools that anyone can apply in their daily lives for a positive change. Some of the optional assignments and videos are interesting too.

The course was very informational. I have a biological science background and took a neuroscience class when I was in college. This class integrated many scientific knowledge and presented various ways to help people learn how to learn.

I was never a very good and or disciplined student growing up. I can see now that was due to the fact I never really learned "how" to learn effectively. This course has given me the tools in order to learn new and challenging topics.
