I really appreciate the time these guys invested in this course and am willing to take it again if they re-explain some topics in order to refresh some things that with time haven't stayed in my mind.

Very useful and it helps a lot for answering my questions:
Why I learnt more effectively in middle school?
Why I couldn't start working and focus on my study?
What are those helpful advises for learning?

Хороший курс, узнал много нового. Понял, причину того, что казалось хорошо изученным и понятным, совершенно выброшенным из голову через пару дне. Узнал о техниках запоминания и качественно понимания.

NIce course, should be mandatory at the beginning of the college studies, or maybe even earlier. There are no magic formulas to learn without efforts, but this is how learning is, hard and satisfying
