An incredible course that presents a powerful tool kit for learning, understanding ideas, topics and picking up skills. Since learning is a never ending journey through life, there are not too many better ways to spend your time. This is a meta skill that should precede any and all other goals that one hopes to achieve.

What an excelent class! super dinamic, Barbara is a really good teacher and I will say that a good influencer in order to motivate people who think that learn or memorice something is the most difficult thing on the world. Thanks a lot your tips and lessons help me a lot to keep concentrate in my studies and my projects

Very powerful and explicit especially very for persons who understood that to make this world a better place requires better and an excellent grasp of knowledge. Learning How to Learn gives you that mental capacity to learn more effectively since you cannot think on what you don't know.

Thanks, I'm truly enjoying myself.

Fantastic course! A lot of material and a lot of thinking to be done. Between the lines there is so much more than what it seems.. only practice can internalize such simple but proven-to-be-the-best techniques thought in this course and bring incredible improvements. So start practicing immediately and.. enjoy the ride!

Incredible. I'm so grateful for Barbara and all of the people involved in making these courses, as well as my friend who recommended it to me. Definetely changed my approach on learning, but also changed my approach on how our brains work and how we can empower it in a way to change our lives for the better. Thank you.

This course is essential in the process of learning and understanding how our minds and bodies react to the process of learning. I've gathered information that I can carry with me throughout the rest of my life and career. Thank you to all the great professors and speakers for putting this course and concept together.

I think this course it's very good for anybody. New concepts are added in a friendly way, easy to remember. The videos are short so that you can watch them in different days if you don't have time to watch all of them in one day. I am very grateful that I found this course because it helped me so much with my learning.

I think everyone should take this amazing course, because it's very wise to learn how to learn before you dive into learning blindly. Also, the professors in the lectures are very inspiring and fun. The course is very well organized itself. Also, there are many extended learning materials waiting for me. Come and join!

Amazing course!

Now, just to say (but this comment is regarding the Coursera certificates) it would be great if they can put the amount of hours that were taken in every course in the certificate, some goverments and companys in other countrys validate the course only if the certificate shows the amount of hours of it.

Très utile lorsqu'on n'a pas appris depuis longtemps et qu'on a le sentiment de ne plus savoir faire ! Des outils pratiques pour lutter contre la procrastination, et la valorisation des temps de créativité (sport, sommeil, activités diverses...) à une époque où on assimile parfois ces temps ... à de la perte de temps !

The 'Best course' on effective learning, I've found so far online.

The information and techniques presented in the course, are very effective in every phase of life.

I truly appreciate the great efforts made by the instructors and all the people involved towards building such a nice informative and innovative course.

This course is well organized. The concepts and techniques are patiently illustrated by the teacher. Some of the optional interviews are also very helpful. I really appreciate the one with Keith Devlin. Thank you Mrs. Oakley for this wonderful course which is a true instruction manual for how to use our brain to learn!

Very useful course! Specially if you are in school or college, but good for anyone! Very practical, interesting and inspiring, great tips. I enjoyed it very much. Now I have a very clear idea of how to study to learn (not to just pass a test) and I will be able to help my son very soon with these techniques. Thumbs up.

I found this extremely helpful. I recently retired at 73, but this has given me the impetus to continue to give it a try to work in a consulting capacity. It is just another challenge in life, but thanks to the course, it will be a little more enjoyable. Thank you for all the ideas, that will help me in the future.

This course is incredible for any caliber of students, but I would personally suggest it more for high school students because it sets you up with positive studying habits that will help you survive the terrain of higher education, the instructors are lovely and the material is well-prepared and thoroughly researched

For students, reskilling employees, researchers, and even aged individuals who are willing to get into a new path of knowledge and experience, this course is a meaningful choice. I don't want to overpraise but it will give a new reform to your learning methods and habits. Thank you Dr.Barbara, and thank you Dr.Terry .

I am many years beyond my formal education and at an earlier point, about 15 years ago, thought I would be hard pressed to take on new learning tasks. I have been pleasantly finding out that I can still be a decent student, and this course has helped me considerably. Thanks very much to the teachers and other staff.

I loved it very much , it helped me in improving my skills and trying to find my passion by learning and have a great energy to do great things , it is my pleasure to have this course from you doctors. It gave a good insight of the learning methodologies which we have often heard of but not given due importance.

Best course ever. I have explored many seminars and mooc to understand the science of learning and recalling. I have found this course very helpful to understand how our mind works, because only then we can harness the power of mind. I recommend all of you to take this course and make the best use of yourself.

A great course that I should have taken long ago. But taking this course at any stage of your life is worth it. The course is well planned, well presented and keeps the interest live throughout the length of course.

Thank you very much and I will spread the word to all members of my family, friends and acquaintances.

This course not only changed my mindset, it also change my life. It sounds like a cliche but I truly noticed a change in myself. I became more confident to take other courser on subjects that I thought were too difficult to learn, and I had success! That has helped me to get new opportunities at my university and job.

This course is unique and brilliant. All the techniques and observations in this work are backed up by scientific studies. Students will understand learning is not an auto-pilot activity, but deliberate practice. Thanks to an amazing instructor for making this course and helping out thousands of students in the world.

Now I have an entirely new perspective about the process of learning. This course took me to a new horizon regarding learning and retaining information. I urge every learner or scholar in any field to take this course. I am sure they won't regret the time spent on it. Thank you very much Dr. Oakley and Dr. Sejnowski .

Wonderful Course, wonderful professors.. I really enjoyed to see how we can improve our learning process though a very wide range of videos, examples, texts, and great, great interviews!! I really enjoy Professor Barbra!! I want to met her pesonally to hear her historys while she was in Antarctica!!! Thanks everyone!!

The course has amazing content. It's a very structured with an interesting approach. For someone who procrastinates a lot, I didn't get bored! I wish we had this course way back in High School. So many tips and my favorites are the Pomodoro and the Memory Palace techniques. I highly recommend this course for everyone.
