It's an amazing course! Teachers are very friendly, it's a pleasure to see them and to listen to them. There's also a lot of great additional information like interviews, articles, books, etc. I've found a lot of new information about learning and I've started to use that information. I feel more confident now and I've started to enjoy the process of learning in a new way. And I've already recommended this course to some of my friends and colleagues!

All in all, it's the best course I've ever been enrolled to!

Merci, j'ai appris à apprendre !

C'est un cours que j'ai pu suivre à mon rythme c'est à dire celui de mon environnement (mon travail, ma famille et ma vie personnelle) j'ai apprécié la progression globale, la diversité des sujets qui tourne autour de l'apprentissage et aussi l'empathie que les professeurs dégagent à leurs étudiants. J'ai eu l'impression de faire partie d'une équipe.

Bravo !

J'ai très envie de suivre le cours "Mindshift: Break Through Obstacles to Learning and Discover Your Hidden Potential".

This was truly a learning ride. I got to experience many different ways to improve my learning. Not only that, but the course also helped me point out why some of the learning techniques that I have been using don't work(Excessive highlighting is one of them). Besides the regular course material, the optional interviews were revelational. Inspired by Benny Lewis, I have started to learn Spanish. I want to thank the instructors and the people who helped create this brilliant course. Kudos for a job well done.

Terrific! THANK YOU! Awesome! This excellent course outlines from A to Z all you wish you had known about learning before going to school. I really appreciate the vast body of knowledge presented in the course: neuroscience, science, art, psychology, philosophy, writing, humanitarian. This course is a multidisciplinary approach on the topic of learning, not just learning a specific field, but learning in general. Very useful. Highly recommend. My tremendous appreciation to Dr. Barbara Oakley. Happy learning!

This is a great course! it is a very good option to gain life long learning tools. Besides, it was very useful for me to tackle some learning problems I had, like procrastination or reading problems. It also provides good tips on how to manage your stress before taking a test and on how to improve your learning, all from a scientific basis! I like a lot the lectures of Dr. Barbs Oakley, she is a very good professor. I enjoyed a lot listening to her videos. Thank you team for this good course! Happy Learning!

I really did enjoy taking the course. I learned a lot about how to tackle procrastination, how to prepare for and take tests. I learned new way's of thinking, and learned about focus and diffused modes. I could go on. Taking this course will help me in my college classes and it will also help decrease my anxiety about taking tests, procrastinating and studying. I also feel confident that I will have success in college if I apply what I've learned from this course. Thank you very much for offering this class!

This course was really helpful to make me understand about the concepts of How actually learning process work on and how we can able to understand any difficult subject in easy way. This course really helped me to understand what mistakes i have been doing in my past and how i could make it correct and better. It showed that how i can maintain the flow of learning all along my life. It is one of the best courses i have and teachers were best to explain. I am very satisfied with this course and its content.

Learning How to Learn has been a great learning experience. Although the course has been released several years ago and so, many of the techniques described were not entirely unknown to the learner of 2020, it remained to be interesting and pleasant throughout these four weeks. It can easily be perceived as an easy course. In my opinion, this is a big victory of Barbara Oakley and Terry Sejnowski being extraordinary professors, fun and educational at the same time. It has been a great experience. Thank you!

The takeaways from this course are of practical benefit to learning and mastering a subject. Be it a technical or a creative. As the title suggests, it is a vital prerequisite to any subject you wish to study. A consequence of completed this course is a complete review of the choices I have been making on a day to day level regarding learning. It is time to switch out the bad habits and install the new ones that I have both learned and been convinced of on this course. It might just change your outlook too.

I think anyone would benefit from the course *as a place to start* because it provides a great quick overview of available tools and strategies. I wish there was a part to the course which puts all this strategies into practice by really driving the point home that this or that particular technique really works. It would be easy for example to to have people memorize a 20 item grocery list using Memory Palace or delight students with fun and clever metaphors to teach a rather complicated scientific concept.

Concise lessons, easy quizzes, cute analogies and superb additional material make this course an obvious choice for learners of all ages. I saw a significant improvement in my studying efficiency after just the first week! And a tip - do watch the optional interviews and check out the supplementary reading, I learned a TON from those as well! Whether you are completely inexperienced or have already explored the science of learning, this course will have something new to teach you. What are you waiting for?

I rate this course a BILLION STAR. This is by far one of the best and most brilliant course i have taken with an life changing impact. lately i being a senior Technical professional was struggling with procrastination, Illusion of incompetence, Einstellung and almost all negative symptoms discussed in this course. [Yes,I learned all the above terminology from this course] . With the mitigation techniques shared,i am resolute to change my life.Lots of Love and Respect for you Prof. Barbara and Prof. Terry .

I enjoyed this course enormously. It made me rethink many fallacies about learning that I have believed. I feel inspired to not only improve my understanding of my current chosen field, but to branch out into other disciplines in order to expand the way in which my brain can creatively solve problems. I wish that I had this course as a resource when I was still in high school. But here we are, 30 years old and ready to get my learn on in a far more meaningful way than I had previously thought was possible.

This course is very informative, It really helped me understood the many strategies to use in learning and also realizing that repeating something to one's self many times for a long period of time isn't the best ideal of learning. Instead space the repetition out. I also learned about the focus mode of learning and how to switch into the diffuse mode when necessary. This are all information i got for free that i never knew of until i leant learning how to learn. Thank you to the team behind this course.

one of the best courses, and those where I retained a lot of the information. A lot of relevance to so many aspects of life, not only learning. The teaching methods are great, including the sequence, the illustrations, and the exams. I finished it, including the extra -tasks within 12 days, but I had some spare time to use.Dr Oakley and Dr Sejnowski are great teachers who delivered it in an eye opening way that will affect my approach to many things in life, most importantly, how I guide my kids to learn!

One of the best courses I have ever taken! Both the faculty members have ensured that all the learning techniques we have learnt through the course are emphasized scientifically. I am so happy to have chosen the right course on the ways of learning. I strongly recommend this course for learners of all ages. This would pave the way for lifelong learning among all avid learners. I, wholeheartedly, place on record my sincere gratitude to both the faculty members for providing an enriched learning experience!

This is an engaging and entertaining presentation of current research concerning learning that offers practical tools for every learner. The "bonus" videos are fascinating interviews, right to the last one, and the "honours" assignments are excellent opportunities to test and demonstrate one's mastery of the subject. Congratulations are due to Barb Oakley, Terry Sejnowski and the Coursera team for creating a course that offers a clear overview, specific details and useful, essential learning strategies.

I really enjoyed this course! Dr. Oakley has such a great way of explaining concepts and it was such a pleasure taking this class. I learned so much about how to learn and a lot of it was completely new to me. I have started to implement what I've learned and it has already drastically changed the quality of my learning. I especially love the Memory Palace technique and I still remember lists I memorized weeks ago! That is just phenomenal. Thank you for such an awesome class! I recommend this to everyone.

This is the best course which helps to understand how you can learn in better way. How you can manage stress. This is great course for anyone regardless of age and what subject anyone want to learn. I would suggest this course should be mandatory before taking any new skill course as it will give you confidence as well as technique using which you can learn the material quickly as well as master the subject in no time. Thank you very much Dr. Barbara Oakley. Appreciate your effort to build up this course.

As an educator, I am glad that I took up this well -structured Modules. Thanks to amazing and in-depth work done by the team. Barbara Oakley has a natural flair and explained very well, easy to follow her well though out interviews with some amazing intellectuals will remain with me as inspiration. I am also in awe of Dr. Terrence Sejnowski and his explanation about the working of a complex machine called the brain. Thanks to the well-developed course it has added value to my learning and worth the time.

In a very calm, clear and warm way, Dr. Oakley and Dr. Sejnowski give a very helpful and practical insight into how our brain learns and many techniques and tricks to tackle the many problems (both external and internal) one can face during the learning process, whatever complexity of the subject at hand.

I have personally and immediately benefited of what I learned in this course and I highly recommend it to anyone strugling with the learning process, whatever the age or the academic experience. Thanks!!

When I started this course, I wasn't expecting something that I didn't already know. I have watched several YouTube videos on how to learn and understand better, along with a lot of articles on this topic, but as I progressed along the course, I was surprised at how much I DIDN'T know about the right way to learn. I'm glad I chose this course and it's a course I'll definitely recommend to my friends!

I loved the optional videos and I suggest everyone taking this course to not miss those! Happy Learning :D

I have been impowered with so many good tools in this course. From memorization techniques , to how to plan my week to achieve my goals, and even (most importantly for me) how procrastination occurs, and what tools you can use to restructure your poor habits and feel long term satisfaction in what you seek to complete in your life. I would say this course all though is focused on scholastic book learning (I'm not in school) for the most part, has drastically put a new view on my entire life of learning.
