This is probably the best online course I have done to date and it's definitely a course everyone should do before they try to tackle other more complex courses. The lessons you learn here are guaranteed to stick with you for the rest of your learning journey.

This is an outstanding course in which you will learn many powerful tools and techniques that can be beneficial for learning virtually anything, be it art, science, math, or even athletics. Take this course and try it out on anything else you'd like to learn.

Great class; I've gained simple, effective strategies to improve my ability to learn. I only hope that other curriculums can incorporate concepts that were discussed in this class, so that more people may apply these strategies at an earlier stage of learning.

It's a very well structured & useful course, which every learner should take. All the skills mentioned are practical & useful in enhancing one's learning. A big thank you from my side to the instructors & their team for developing such well structured course.

The concepts of focused and diffused thinking were really helpful. Some great techniques to ward off procrastination. The optional interviews were great to have a perspective from people of different disciplines. A great course for those in need of direction.
