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.

I highly recommend everyone to take this course. The course makes so much of sense and it reasons why someone learns the way they learn and it debunks a lot of misconceptions and myths around memory.

Very simple and easy to understand, very rich in information and very well organized. You can either learn the basics or dig deeper with the additional readings and videos.

Excellent course. Useful for everyone, not only students.
I had some ideas about these concepts, but when it is delivered in a systematic way the benefit is so much higher.

Even though I am long past my undergraduate years (BA 1966) I found this course filled with useful information. I expect to make good use of what I learned/was reminded of.

Very helpful. I hope I can read your new book as soon as possible.
What's more, for non-English people, it is really a hard course, but I overcome it :)
