very good material to study learn how to learn. maybe I will study this course once more, using the skills which I learned from this course.

Actually, I have already been using a lot of skills, like Anki, Supermemo, Mind Map. But I thought still have too many aspects to enhance. And what I have learned from this course will help me a lot to study new things, especially while memories will loss as we getting older.

tks the team

It is a very informative and entertaining course, where every lesson you get great advice for truly learning things more effectively. I have heard about the pomodoro technique before but combined with the more scientific (and fun) explanations i was convinced to try it out, and i think that is the best part about this course, and it is that I finish motivated to keep applying the tips and tricks learned here. Thanks a lot :)

This course simply i consider one of the most powerful courses i have ever taken, also I have gotten enormous information out of this and this what i am planning to apply in my new life career. Finnaly the new skills i have learned are unforgetable and so ease to grasp and apply. One last thing learning how to learn wasn't only a course for me it was a part of mine now. Thank you drs for your efforts through the whole course

This course really helped me to figure out how to learn. I wanted to learn things in the past, start a course but drop interest halfway through. I wish I came across this course at least a decade back. Never the less I have a lot more to learn. Now I know how to learn effectively without dropping the interest. Thank you so much, Professor Barbara Oakley. They way she explained was amazing. I wish I meet here in my lifetime.

The course comprehensively covered the main areas of how to learn, in an interesting, easy to understand way. The videos retained your interest and the content was both interesting but extremely helpful. The instructors are fantastic and the optional reading and information contains a significant amount of information, which I would definitely recommend accessing. Overall, a fantastic course that I would strongly recommend.

overall this course is brilliant as the content is very well structured and clearly explained. I really like how most how the concepts are explained through graphics and metaphors, and i feel close to the two teachers.

one thing I would like to point out is that the last part of the 4th week learning is not exciting as the first three weeks as it's very focused the practical tips for tests, which I am already familiar with.

Перед началом курса у меня были сомнения на счет его эффективности, даже после прочтения нескольких позитивных отзывов про курс. Но постепенно по мере прохождения курса, я нашел очень много практичных и полезных советов и информации. Преподаватели очень преподносят информацию и интересной форме и с учетом в голове "краткость - сестра таланта". Курс ппрошел на одном дыхании и завершил раньше назначенного срока. Рекомендую.

I am not going to say that I am a procrastinate person, but what I am doing as a job is very tiring and prevent me to focus or doing things on time. This course "learning how to learn" has thought me how to mange the study time and how to reduce stress when I study. The break time in between, the repetition to help you memorize and how to schedule your time, all these tips help me so far a lot to focus better on my study.

I believe that this course has given me a better understanding of how my brain works, and how can I make the most out of it. This course also pointed out the harmful habit I do during studying and learning, how can I avoid these harmful habits and replace them with beneficial ones. I will start applying all the the techniques I learned during this course to enhance my learning experience and change my life to a better one.

What Barbara Oakley and Terrence Sejnowski, the educators, have done is breathtaking. This course gives such a great insight into how the brain works and how to overcome obstacles or illusions and therefore think more effectively, it is awesome. The only detail to improve is the subtitles, I was using Spanish subtitles and sometimes they were incomprehensible, not to mention that they were not in alignment with the speech.

Fantastic class. A lot of materials could be considered common knowledge or basic, but the course was very upfront about that. I fact, I believe that it was necessary in order to cater to a wide range of audiences and to benefit as many people as possible. While I didn't find the course to be challenging, I did take away a couple tools and tricks that will continue to benefit me throughout the lifelong journey of learning.

This is a wonderful course for any person who is interested in learning how to learn effectively. I highly appreciate the LHTL team's efforts to design the course content in such a way that person from any discipline is able to understand the concepts easily. In one word this was an awesome beginning to the effective learning journey. A big thank you to LHTL team! I am definitely going to share this course with my friends.

A brilliant course, i should complete it way earlier! The learning tips are so useful, it seems to me i'm automatically applying some of them already. Trying to implement mind maps for everything like presentation for work, a book presentation meeting etc, found this tool to be very useful. After making a mind map i can easily recall the whole speech or idea behind it! Still need to inhabit the chapter 4 tips into my life.

Whether it is for a Degree/Certification, Training, professional or studying; this is the best approach to understand and gives you the best tools for understanding and comprehending any topic. I highly recommend it!

I took the learning three months ago, and I just took the test; Dr Barb Oakley, hit the sweet spot... She has given me a gift. Thank you Dr. Barb. This is a wonderful course and you explain it with an ease

I started this course because I want to further my learning and venture into subjects out of my comfort zone. The course content, the delivery, the presentations, the duration of each session has been carefully crafted that the student is able to easily grasp it. I'm extremely grateful to Dr. Barbara Oakley & Dr. Terry Sejnowski for putting this course together and making it available for lovers of learning like myself!

I am a language teacher so I knew about chunking and SRS, but the rest of the material was new to me. Great explanations with solid graphics and the right energy make this a valuable course. It helps me with my own learning and also when teaching others. This is good to anyone, but it would be especially helpful for university students who want to do better, who already have the drive, but are lacking some valuable tools.

Barbara mam and Terry sir .....You were amazing.....!!!!!!! Barbara mam......You were really like my own teacher and I went into my kindergarten days...!!! Whenever I see you on screen...I get enthusiastic...I was struggling with learning problems....This course was really useful....This course must be taken by everyone....Now I have this confidence that I can learn any new thing that is unrelated to me...Smart isn't it;)

Muy interesante. Excelentemente explicado, todos los detalles, si me costo un poco por no estar completamente en Español, pero con lo que se de ingles me enseño muchisimas cosas.. si tengo tiempo en un futuro tomare el que están traduciendo al Espa{ol, por si se me paso algo.. pero si, este curso me ayudara en mi privado de la universidad, en organizar y ser mas efectivo en el trabajo, y si quiero estudiar nuevas cosas.

My company decided to move everyone around and I was placed in an environment where I had to learn a new field. It's been a long time since I was in school and the learning process was not going well. I saw this course course and figured maybe there's something I've forgotten or never learned about learning. There is a lot I never understood about learning! I encourage others to take this course and find out for yourself.

Highly informative, fun, and engaging for a course that's very meta -- Professors Barbara Oakley and Terrence Sejnowski present the subject matter in a way that anyone can easily relate, whether they came from a science or an arts/humanities course. It has since inspired us to reflect on our current study habits and look at where we can start changing for the better.

Thank you for teaching us about learning how to learn!!

Barbara Oakley shows you how you can go from studying zero to studying hero, and deeply learn complex concepts that you never thought you had a shot at truly knowing. She lays out concrete, easy to follow steps that you can do to help understanding and memory, while also developing skills to fight and eventually eliminate procrastination. I found her inspirational! Thank you Barbara, for creating such an amazing course!

Great tools and scientific explanations that help us understand how our brain works, why we procrastinate and how to learn more efficiently. You start having a more rational attitude towards your learning process, which helps move forward and get it done easier than before! You can definitely get rid of bad old habits and start creating new more healthy ones. Very helpful for anybody, life is a constant learning journey!

This course introduced many important concepts and tools like "focus mode vs diffuse mode of thinking", "chunking","illusion of competence"..etc. It may be the very basic knowledge about mental function, neurons, and some sort of neuroscience, but it's like a gate opens a new world for you to know your self learning mode and help you in some extend to more focus on the points that needs to be improved. Very great course!

Ótimo curso, nos dá conceitos importantes sobre como estudar, que efetivamente melhoram nosso aprendizado. Uma boa dica para aqueles que querem começar é assistir esse curso com a seguinte pergunta em mente "como eu devo estudar para melhorar meu rendimento". Ao final, aprenderão muito sobre as técnicas, e verão que é possível aplicar em vários tipos de matérias - desde matemática, programação, artes marciais, dança etc.

Learning how to learn has never been easier and more fun! This course is an invaluable aid to learn ANYTHING. It provides 'know-how' and confidence in your ability to master any subject matter. The techniques provided to deal with procrastination have significantly impacted my life. I am grateful to Coursera and to instructors Terrence Sejnowsi and especially Barbara Oakley for making learning such a pleasure. Thank you!
