Very useful and it helps a lot for answering my questions:
Why I learnt more effectively in middle school?
Why I couldn't start working and focus on my study?
What are those helpful advises for learning?

Хороший курс, узнал много нового. Понял, причину того, что казалось хорошо изученным и понятным, совершенно выброшенным из голову через пару дне. Узнал о техниках запоминания и качественно понимания.
