Great course. I greatly appreciate Dr. Oakley and Coursera bringing this free course to millions of people eager to learn new things. Life is a never ending journey of learning. I highly recommend this course for all ages and backgrounds.

Course full of useful tips how to master your learning.

I highly advise to watch the videos and make notes, It might be useful later.

Barb and Terry are very knowlegde professionals which brought a lot of interesting content to this course.

Really enjoyed learning about some of the ways we can improve learning and how at times simple things i was doing was actually a disadvantage. A short course with a lot of good information and really enjoyed how they "chunked" the videos

This class teaches you some powerful techniques for learning more efficiently and enjoying it while doing so. It utilizes the taught methods during the course, which both helps you learn, and see how these methods can be used in practice.

This course was very clearly laid out and delivered. It includes a great balance of background concepts and relates them to real-world strategies and tools that immediately find their way into your day-to-day thought processes. Thank you!

I was familiar with some techniques and not with others. Re-affirming the know ones, like Pomodoro, with new ones like the Memory Palace fills me up with confidence to continue learning and pushing the boundaries of what I can accomplish.

Outstanding!

I have a minute or so to summarize, so I will simply say that I believe what I learned in this course will provide significant value for years to come. Thanks to the instructors for an outstanding journey on learning to learn.

I learned lot of things after this course. I got confidence that anyone can learn anything. I can definitely avoid procrastination if I practice the techniques in this course. I recommend to people who have hard time to learn new things.

Such a great course, it helps you grasp the fundamental of learning and what I love most about this course is that is shows and teaches you how your brain words, and by that they can show you the best ways to learn and the most effective.

Excellent course. I started college in 1969 and went through undergraduate and two graduate programs without knowing this stuff. Things would have been much easier and I may have learned more if I had known this material when I started.

Easy to understand and many useful references to other sources of information which helps to understand better and learn how to learn. Simple, organized and well-structured with everything documented by facts/researches/experimentes/etc..

Although I have trouble while taking this course (so much delay and procrastination) but I really appreciate the efforts of teachers and enjoy many techniques to my studying and working. I still have to learn and practice a lot.

Thank you!

This course had a considerable positive influence on my academic situation, career and everyday life, making them develop faster and gain new skills in less time with effort.

It's a good idea to have a small manual for your precious brain.

I loved the course! I started binge-watching it initially because I just loved the way Prof. Barbara Oakley described things with visual aids. The course is beautifully designed. The optional interviews with interesting people is a bonus!

Really appreciate this course. Every time I re-watch it, I learn something helpful and new. Proudly I'd say I have learnt this course at least 4 times, and recommended it to two of my best friends as a must have thing in life of learning.

This course is very enjoyable and highly stimulating. I intend to use the learning techniques as I journey into retirement. German is a language I will learn to enhance my attendance at Oktober Fest 2016. Thanks loads for the information.

Good starting point for self education, wonderful teacher and mind blowing external interviews. This MOOC helped identify bad studying habits and gave me tools to start wining battles on procrastination. Altogether a very valuable course.

Awesome courses. Very helpful. I'll ask my kids to learn it. The courses should also be taught in, at least, high school. High school kids have so many courses to master and the course can help them learn more efficiently and effectively.

i like it in the way of trying some of the advices in real life. Some of them works and that's matter. I would be pleased if the authors can make a "Learning how to learn - part 2" course or something like that. Thanks for the knowledges.

I wholeheartedly recommend this course. It may not be the most precise, concise and scientific-fact-driven course on learning, but for me it hit the right spot on all fronts. By the end of it, you will be equipped with some useful tools.

This course was very eye opening and it taught that every thing was possible , which gave me hope that I can achieve my wildest dreams.Essentially this course changed my life for the better.I would 1000 percent recommend it to my peers.

It was a great experience, I learned so much on learning. Especially how our brain functions to enable us to learn. The value of modes of thinking. How discipline and different techniques can help us to enhance our learning capabilities.

Thankful for the opportunity of being able to take and finish this MOOC! BTW, this is the first MOOC that I was able to finish. Thank you very much Dr. Oakley and Dr. Sejnowski for creating this amazing course. Thank you, coursera team!

This course made me relearn things that I knew 30 years ago: Sleep well; relax and tap into your defuse mode of thinking; chunk it together and make it a picture. Dr Oakley and Dr Tarrence explain the brain and its science clearly.

A five-star recommendation for people who want to maximize their learning potential, to increase their performance at work, to live a more balanced, optimistic, positive life, and to navigate toward a brighter future. I love this course.
