I usually do lots of MOOCs but Learning how to learn is the best one I have ever done.
It has made me be more focus on my studies and be more effective using differents simple techniques taught in this course.
I would do it over and again to have deeper knowledge about the best way to learn.

Все дается по делу, ничего лишнего с подробными объяснениями, почему нужно делать так. Остался в полном восторге от курса. Если Барбара будет читать, то технику аналогичную запоминанию знакомых предметов в комнате практиковали еще древнегреческие ораторы для запоминания пунктов своей речи ;)

Everyone would have their own approaches/tools to learning. I feel that this course would help one to confirm if the approaches/tools they use is really helping them ? And also, it would help one to equip with several more approaches that others in the world use for learning. Keep learning!

Excellent course, it takes you to a very easy going course with constant use of the tools to reinforce the facts that those same tools are the ones needed to learn faster and better. Highly recommended for young students in their degree careers. Tools for the restless mind of many of us!!!!

Great scientific tips on how to study better. The course itself is prepared with these tips, so we will (thankfully) have a hard time to forget the metaphors, analogies and visualizations presented during the course. There's also some interesting interviews to learn more from amazing people.

I am 32 and still find this course very useful. It can be useful for a high school student or PhD student, or someone like me who just want to keep learning.
The neuroscience facts are very useful although short, and the techniques to train memory and work on procrastination are also great.

Amazing. These were practically things I have learned throughout my successful academic career by trial and error but it was absolutely eye-opening to see that these are actual, recognized techniques. Obviously I did not know all of these techniques, so the course was instructional as well.

This course was one of the most helpful courses I encountered. I really helped me in learning how to learn properly. Techniques like the Pomodoro-Technique are now a great asset to my arsenal! I feel more achieved and I know how to get myself out of a slump and remotivate myself. Thank you!
