first i was very excited to learn this course and was expected to learn very different approach to learn and after completing this course I am glad to tell you all that i have come with lots of techniques which actually helps to improve learning.

and lastly thank you

My study-time has decreased by a significant margin and I manage to memorize a lot more things I've studied, just by using the techniques described (and thoroughly explained) in this course. Highly recommend it for everybody, regardless of age, educational level etc.

Exceptional course, has helped me a lot to understand more about my learning techniques and mistakes I have made all along my academic life. Barbara Oakley is truly a remarkable instructor, makes learning feel like such an easy and natural process, highly recommend.

Well, I'm sure that it's an amazing course. Nevertheless I'd already known ~20-30% of material from other sources. It gives wide perspective on how to learn.

Certainly, it's worth spending each second from all the required time to go through it.

I highly recommend it.

Absolutely Brilliant! Funny, interesting, lots of useful tips and good explanations of everything, has really helped me to study much more effectively and efficiently. And the Professors are kind and friendly in the videos, along with very good at explaining things.

Definitely worth taking this course. The most important takeaway for me is to realise the mistakes that I had committed previously while studying. It is nicely delivered in an acceptably short format where the message is clear and we can get down to work immediately.

I love what I learned. I think everyone should take this course regardless of where they are at in their journey of knowledge. If you are just beginning this will aid you so much! If you are already deep into your academic career this will help enhance your learning.

I enjoyed the course, even when on a few points that i thought were getting tough the techniques taught helped me. I dont actually have any tests per se to do, but I hoped/hope that this course will help me with other courses on Coursera as well as generally in life.

This was by far one of the best decisions I made in my life to take this course. Dr.Barbara and Dr.Terrence really put together a prime course with lots of useful information, I highly recommend!!

Thank you Dr. Barbara and Dr.Terrence, thank you Coursera.

Great course, I really enjoyed taking my time going through each section and hearing professionals break down the learning process. I immediately shared this course with multiple people in my life and hope to continue to do so given this is such a valuable resource!

This is a fantastic course about how you can enable new possibilities to learn new tough subjects I an efficient way. Believe me this course it worth it if you are really wondering how you should learn things more accurately and can be beneficial for future as well.

Barbara and Terence you both were so engaging. The research & optional reads were superb. Learnings applicable in my professional & personal life - I now know the power of diffused thinking mode, and interleaving and can fight a bit with the procrastination zombies!

A valuable tool to gain knowledge about how to acquire knowledge, retain it, expand on it and enrich our lives. I am very grateful to Ms. Oakley and Mr. Sejnowski for this great course. I have enjoyed taking this course and I will recommend it to family and friends.

This course was a great introduction to the world of MOOC learning. It was the first online course I have ever taken, and I'm proud I completed it. It motivated me to continue on my path of online learning, and I look forward to exploring new subjects in the future.

Very interesting, I have learned a lot and I feel more confident in my ability to learn anything. I recommend it for anyone feeling stuck in their learning or anyone who wants to take charge of their learning instead of stumbling through and learning "as it happens"

This is the first course everyone should take after signing on Coursera. No only did I learn new "skills to learn skills", but I got some fundamentals on how the mind and the brain works, and how to take advantage of that to "hack the brain" and build better habits.

A work of love with all the due diligence and research from a top learning institution. Very grateful and now hopeful on a new journey of learning, not studying (here used to define the poor methods of learning resulting from a school system based on factory labor).

I am very grateful to the teachers for such an informative, useful and inspiring course and a pleasant time spent. The valuable information that I received, I will use myself and pass on to my children. Dear Barbara Oakley and Terrens Sejnowski, тhank you very much!

one of the best courses I've ever taken on Coursera, I have learned a new technique of learning methods like Podomoro, chunking, focus, or diffuse method. if I have known this course early especially on my college day. I could be graduated as a "cum Laude' student.

Excellent course. Useful and applicable techniques which are particularly helpful for students. The course has a well designed structure. The course coordinator, Dr. Oakley, is clear in her explanations. I would probably revisit this course again in the near future.

At first I used to have a lot frustration but after getting these ideas, it really gives me confidence. It was really great. I have learned so many new concepts. The professor was really great. Anyone regardless of any discipline must be benefited from these ideas!!

this course is thought changing. I think it is the basic education that should be available to every student out there. We should learn how we learn so that we can do what we are doing effectively.

I highly prescribe you this course for natural health of your brain.

Absolutely loved this course! I took it in junior high. I am a student with many passions and interests that this course has helped me further my learning in. I highly recommend to anyone who wants to make their learning easier, stronger, faster, and more enjoyable.

This was fabulous and really helped me. I plan on using these study skills and am so glad I learned them. Highly recommend this course whether you are trying to learn how to study or professional, it will help you learn even more. 5 out of 5 stars. Excellent course!

This is a great course for anyone who wants to get foundation tips as to how to achieve maximum results from their learning experiences. It is also for those who want to improve their academic abilities and those who simply want to be more organized in their career.
