Very Useful. Things that i used do while in school and college are so useful that i can apply even now. Modes of thinking, chunks and procrastination. Barbara and Terrence are fantastic in explaining concepts in simple format.

Great tips for young students and older professional alike! Most ideas might seem common sense, but few actually put them to practice with a conscious mind. It provided a lot of "professional" advice for my kids also. THANK YOU!

Useful course. Wish they would touch on Essay writing and how to tackle mental blocks or how to get started. They focused a lot on test taking, but in Masters level a lot is based on essays. Overall good course and entertaining.

It's a practical and helpful course. It's helping me improve my learning skills and strengthen my self confidence in what I'm learning. One more benefit from the course is that I'm going to reach more areas beyond reach before.

This is a fantastic course that I wish I would have had available to me when I was still in high school. I think the concepts taught would have put me on an entirely different educational path. Thanks again for the great course!

Excelente curso.
Muy bien dirigido por ambos profesores.
Las técnicas y métodos aunque muchas ya se aplican en forma inconsciente sirven para ordenar la forma de estudiar y aumentar la eficiencia de aprendizaje.

I love the course, it is so informative but still simple to understand.
I will definitely be using many techniques which are mentioned in the course, probably for everything in my life not only my studies, such as the Pomodorro
