Amazing insights into how people learn with practical ways of implementing these tools and techniques is what made this course not only informative but useful for students and professionals alike. I have learned a lot of cool techniques that i can't wait to apply and get benefitted. Thanks to Dr. Oakley and Dr. Sejnovski for this course.

It doesn't happen so often to feel sad when a course is over, I got incredibly excited about how prof Barbara and Terry took me in such an interesting section on neurosciences! It definitely changed my way to think about approaching to a new subject. Since learning doesn't stop at college, this is an incredibly worthwhile course. Thanks!

Conocer con mas detalle como funciona nuestro cerebro referente al aprendizaje y memoria, creo que nos permite optimizar y ser capaces de llegar mas lejos en nuestras carreras, comprender temas mas complejos, dominar mejor nuevas áreas de interés, en definitiva, lo que aprendes en el curso lo puedes aplicar en todas las áreas de la vida.

It is the first course on Coursera which I have completed and that too 2 weeks early. It has given me some great tips and tools to improve time organization and learning effectively. The course provides helpful tips on improving test scores, coming out of traps of illusions of competence, and many more obstacles that hamper our learning.

Great Course .Well taught and researched and indeed the best on learning how to learn .Thanks A lot Dr.Barbara Oakley and Dr .Terrence Sejnowski .Excellently Done Work .Having Done Mindshift Course too by the same team and having highly benefited so much ,I would be earnestly looking forward to more courses and material from them soon .

Un curso muy interesante. Donde podemos encontrar formas más óptimas y efectivas para estudiar, como también para lidiar con la procrastinación. Me gustaron mucho las entrevistas realizadas a profesionales de diversos sectores. El curso presenta el tipo de herramientas que todos desearíamos haber tenido previo a entrar en la universidad.

This is a life changing course. The course is loaded with important knowledge and tips, so you need to pay attention to every word. The number 1 benefit I got from this course is knowing the spaced repetition and Anki application, and they helped me a lot in improving my learning and my mind in general. Don't hesitate to take this course

Very helpful techniques to make sure you're making the most of your learning time - study/learn for the same amount of time, but getting more out of it. It addresses things like how to make sure you actually know the material (rather than the illusion of competence), handling procrastination, and making sure you gain long term retention.

An excellent course for learning new study tips and new ways of thinking about learning. The course provides lots of insight into how we learn and how we can use this knowledge to maximize our learning. The ideas taught in the course are backed by real neuroscience and help give you an understanding of how your brain works when learning.

After learning this course, I found out about various ways to improve my learning process and successfully implemented in my own learning. Some of the learning methods were already familiar, but I was always hesitant to adopt them. Barbara has a knack in convincing people to give these methods a go by outlining how they might be helpful.

I found this course enlightening and practical. The passion of the facilitators was plain to see and significantly enhanced my learning experience. I have gained a lot both in the explicit learnings of the course and by following the good design and delivery practices used. Thank you for the opportunity, experience and valuable learning.

This is an excellent course not only help one learning how to learn but many of the skills taught in this course such as using Pomodoro timer to help focus and overcome difficult problems, breathing exercise to calm our panic, exercise and good sleeping habit to help memory as well as better judgement can benefit us throughout our lives.

Llevo 4 años ya en la universidad y he aprendido a aprender por ensayo y error, aun así no he logrado el nivel de calidad de estas poderosas herramientas que el curso me da. Hubiera deseado que me las hayan enseñado mucho antes pero bueno ya las aprendí y es momento de utilizarlas para el resto de mi vida tanto profesional como personal.

The modules and lessons are intuitive and easy to follow through. Overall, I learned so much about not only the brain facts and proven study techniques but also my own mind and study habits. It's an amazing course and I would definitely recommend it to my friends and classmates, or to anyone who are determined to improve their learning.

Sometimes we don't even know how to utilise our own brain to learn things effectively. This course is a must for everyone who wants to sharpen their memory and learn something new. Using the methods like Pomodoro Technique, Illusion of Competence, Diffused and Focused Mode thinking have helped me in learning and recalling things easily.

First of all thank you for this wonderful course that helped me reinforce some of my correct ideas of how to learn and opened my mind to a various ways of learning. I have benefited a lot from this course and I hope others will benefit and enjoy this course as much as I did.

Once again Thank you Barbra and Terry for this wonderful course

This is an amazing course. It not only gave me an idea of how our brain works in learning something but i also got to understand so many different techniques to tackle procrastination and deepen my learnings, Doing good in a test, and so much more.

Thankful to Proff. Barbara Oakley for sharing such an amazing course with people all over.

Informative, insightful and certainly brings about a lot of positivism in life. My sincere thanks to professors Barbara and Terrence for designing this beautiful course that truly helps in broadening the horizons about the way we look at things. Look forward meeting you again. Regards, Santosh Mishra, Business Development - Adani Group.

Really like the concepts and biological reason behind why I was suffering from learning effectively.

This course really helped me to bring my perspective towards small- small things I was doing wrong.

But now I believe that I will work more efficiently in any sort of learning fields.

Thank You, Barb Oakley for teaching "Learn How To Learn"

By far the best course on here...regardless of the discipline. Not only are the professors insightful and enthusiastic but this course structured in a way to maximize your potential to learn the material. This course isn't full of 25 min lectures of a professor talking in front of a green screen. It's interactive and engaging material.

This is the first online Course I´m able to finish. It´s an eye opener. I have an issue with Procrastination, even if I´ve tried some of the techniques explained in this Course before. But the way Barbara Oakley explains concepts and ideas in a clear and relaxed way has helped me to get that extra motivation I didn´t find anywhere else.

Es uno de los mejores cursos que he realizado. Estoy muy satisfecha con el aprendizaje y la forma en la que lo presentan. RECOMENDABLE para estudiantes y personas que quieran aumentar su campo de conocimiento ya que este es uno de los cursos que te motiva a querer estudiar más allá de tus cursos preferidos y expandir la librería mental.

Learned HOW to actually apply study tips that we hear everywhere: stop procrastinating, active learning, spacing the material, etc. Lectures are packaged in interesting bite-size videos that explain the neuroscience of why the techniques work. The course empowers ordinary people that learning a lot of new things does not require genius.

Learned so many things that is impossible to list all of them here; I applied these skills immediately on my job and hobbies and the rate of learning has been improved consistently. You not only learn about learning but a many tricks and information also useful to improve your motivation and engagement. I strongly recommend this course.

Great course! Should be taught prior to HS/College so students can understand best habits to really learn the material and ingrain it in long term memory rather than short term or working memory. Especially loved the content on procrastination and the "Pomodoro technique". Thanks Barbara and everyone at UCSD who made this course happen!
