SUCH a fun class! I had a great time watching and thinking about learning, and it gave me a lot of confidence to restart courses that I was struggling with before, and made me excited for starting school again!

Everyone must go through this course. In schools, we were taught to go after grades, but no one (till today!) is teaching the right/effective method to learn. I wish I could've taken this course earlier in life

Un curso genial en el que aprender a aprender se hace muy f谩cil y muy entretenido. Las t茅cnicncas que se ense帽an son muy 煤tiles, no solo para estudiar un examen, si no para la vida en general. Recomendado 100%

What a great course, thank you. Even (or especially) after two Master degrees it taught me new things. Plus it gave me great tips and tools to teach my son, in these times of homeschooling / the covid pandemic.

a really good MOOC. Even better if you read Barbara's book at the same time for interleaving, spaced repetition, and recall. You will learn more about those if you take the course. I recommend you to do that!!!

The contents of this course are pretty useful. This course does not just give tips on test-taking, but it also adds in a bit of neuroscience to help us understand why certain habits are effective or ineffective

I think that everyone needs to read this, we all go to school. We all learn day to day. All this information is transferable to any type of subject you want to learn.
I use this for language, music and science.
