I found this course to be incredibly helpful. I am 33 and wish that I would have been taught a more efficient way of learning many years ago. There are definitely some great takeaways from this class.

Awesome course that helped me get a broad perspective on why I tend to procrastinate and how I should go about tackling the problem. I think a course like this should be standard and I recommend that you take it.

It was good learning how to learn. Managed to get a new perspective on how to study and realized I was doing some of them without knowing what it was exactly. Give yourself time and study bit by bit. Great work!

Очень полезный курс, очень сжато и содержательно о том как лучше усваивать и запоминать информацию. Вдохновившись курсом, сейчас читаю книгу Барбары Окли "Думай как математик", пожалуй лучшее приложение к курсу.
