Whether you want to learn Spanish, master the trombone or just get the most out of you revision for an exam this book will help you to achieve your learning goals. I'm off to listen again as, after all, repetition will help me to learn more thoroughly!

An enjoyable read with practical advice to enhance your personal learning systems

Liked this book a lot for its simple to understand advice that you can put into practice immediately.
A insightful reminder that you can’t expect to accomplish a great skill without effort and a system for success which we often forget.

Not as Powerful as I'd hoped

I picked up a couple of good ideas in the book but not as much as I'd hoped for. It's written and narrated in a bullet point manner which I didn't enjoy

Nothing new, very basic. Not impressed.

Learned nothing new, very basic commonsense stuff. Poor examples. Not sure how much research has gone into this book.
