Some new study techniques and explanations on how your brain and memory work. Great explanations on things you already knew- like WHY procrastination is bad, why we tend to do it, and good tips for stopping it., etc.

Невероятно полезный курс, содержащий в себе информацию о полезных вещах -- таких, как прокрастинация, мнемонические приемы и техники и др. И все это очень хорошо структурировано и приятно в изучении. Рекомендую всем.
