Thanks so much - I felt like since I am getting older, I would not be able to start out towards a new degree, but you have given me some new tips and techniques that make me feel more confident that I should move forward with taking more classes and hopefully move forward in my career.

This course is really great! Whether you are studying or working I think it gives you so much in terms of mastering how to memorise things. I will be sharing some of these techniques in my new lessons, and I will adapt my lessons according to what I've learned in the course. Thank you!

It was the best course I've ever had.

In Russian: в рот мне ноги, это самое шедевральное творение человечества в области саморазвития, буквально за две-четыре недели ты узнаёшь о себе туеву хучу полезной информации, которую можешь применять на практике буквально во всём.

This course actually corrected some misunderstanding than I held before about learning. It gives a brand new insight about learning and teaches me useful techniques about how to learn. I think anyone who is interested in learning new things should take some time to go over this course.

The course has been very helpful to understand the theory and research behind learning and how our brain works, as well as get some practical tips and tools on how to learn more effectively and master difficult subjects. Thank you Barbara and Terrence for the great learning experience!

Amazing!!! I learned so much and was able to put it into practice immediately. This course blew my mind and I'm recommending it to everyone I talk to. I'm an informal educator K-6 and I've been using the strategies in this course with my students with great success. Thank you so much!

It's a very interesting course which is helpful not only for improving your learning skills but also your daily habits of thinking and working as well. If you're interested in the subject of the brain and how it's working that course will give you some foundation of understanding that.

Since my own goal is to be a life long learner, I have read a lot of books about learning and brain. This course has demonstrated the framework and method so that I can connect what I learnt together. That is to say, it is like pearls connecting to the necklace. Thanks for your course.

Very helpful and insightful course on how to learn. This course has changed my life, and I'm already seeing inpmrovements in my study life after applying some of the principles and techniques acquired from taking this course. Taking this course has been one of my best decisions lately.

This course was quite valuable for people of all ages. Really wish that there had been a module or requirement for me to hear this information before starting college, but still, years after graduate school, the concepts and tips presented are of value as we continue to learn in life.

I like it, it helps me to know that the methods of learning that are not taught in school to increase my ability to learn, in the article also mention some names of different types of neurons. I absolutely love it, especially the part about what motivates you. Yeah, and I finished it.

Invaluable course; I learned a lot and want to help the young people in my family have this as a foundation for learning. Wish I had this YEARS AGO. Thank you to everyone who put this together or maintains the online portal, I'm sure you've had a positive influence on so many lives.

This course is very helpful for me. I understood how to learning more effective, how my brain work. Make me feel very confident when I start to learn something different or face with difficult problems. Free course for everyone and I appreciated that. Thank you very much! From Vietnam

I loved this course. This is the first course that I chose in coursera. I thought that learning how to learn is very important for learning other courses. The knowledge about our learning process was augmented. Thanks to Professors , Barbara Oakley and Terry Sejnowski.Thanks Coursera.

The course provides very useful information in a well explained and organized manner. Plenty of reference material for further reading and study, interviews with expert people, and more.

Highly recommended for people that need help and hints on studying and learning habits and skills.

Really insightful course. I recommend it to anyone who is having a hard time in school or even in a work environment where learning is a part of the job. This course is great for people of all ages since it's really easy to understand. Thank you for helping me get over my Einstellung.

This was a very enjoyable course, which was divided up into easily digestible chunks of information. I was able to implement what I learned right away, and will remember how to take advantage of research-proven ways to deal with procrastination and how to better memorize information.

Really Useful Course. Learnt a lot about our brains, how it works and why it behaves a certain way. Also we learnt lot of tips to improve productivity and becoming better learners. I am thankful to coursera and the amazing people who have put up a lot of efforts in making this course.

Great Course!

A brilliant combination of practical toolbox and insights of neurological / behavioral science into the activity of learning. Thus taught by inspirational, brilliant, and funny people, from the main professors to the guests. A great MOOC experience! Well done to the team!

It's a great course for anybody in the academic or the professional world, whether young or old. I do suggest before taking any other courses to enrich your mind and expand your skills, to follow this course first and get the tools as well as the correct mindset to learn your subject.

It's hard to believe that I finished this wonderful class. This class gave me not just new ideas but also help me to recognized what kind of roadblocks that may pop up when we're thinking.

Thanks for Dr. Barbara Oakley and Dr.Terry Sejnowski to teach us this wonderful and useful class.

I would like to thank you. It was a great chance to join this course. It is so beneficial and it helps to learn whatever I want. Really, I was struggling in may engineering major, but now every subject becomes easy with your powerful techniques in learning how to learn.

me gudto este curso ya que que me ayudo a ver lo que estoy haciendo mal en cuanto a mi metodo de estudio ademas de que te dan todas las tecnicas necesarias para combatir los malos habitos, solo sugeriria que lo traducieran en mas idiomas ya que solo estar eso complica un poco el curso

Fantastic course! I'm 39 years old, and I am learning again. I have a master's degree i legal studies and a second master of business administration degree. Now I am sure; I am not old for it. I do my best and I can learn efficiently. Thank you, Barb and Terry, for my new opportunity!

A very vivid and useful aid in understanding, reviewing and improvising the entire process of how we learn. the best part is that it isn't confined to one single branch of specialty, but can be applied to anything and everything including routine tasks making it very apt for everyone.
