Some reviews from my students for my courses about metacognition and learning

 

“Learning How to Learn with the REAL Learning Process Path”

  • The Real Learning Process Path is a must for every student regardless of age. Course presentation and materials are user-friendly and relevant to teaching and learning. Not only does it prepare the playing field for meaningful lifelong learning, it also makes teachers think anew about teaching materials, teaching methods, intervention and their own responsibility for lifelong learning. I wish I was exposed to the course 40 years back. It would have made my teaching and learning so much more streamlined.  (Alberta V)
  • Apart from gaining knowledge about the latest research on learning, this course is very helpful in teaching the steps of learning (and other concepts) to my students! The slides are a great way to start my sessions as it is systematically set up, with regular reviews of already covered material. The practical tools are also super helpful when teaching my students to apply the steps to their work. The way that Estelle summarized the memory principles and methods has also been very useful in teaching younger children the basics of memorizing work.  This course even motivated me to invest in more effective lifelong learning myself! Thank you for an amazing course with loads of downloadable resources! (Annaleen C)
  • Estelle, you have designed a well researched, well paced and thorough course. I will need to put aside time to go through all the additional resources and readings.  I especially liked the way that you designed the course, you were really applying what you were teaching us. Bite sized chunks of information using a multi-sensory approach and then regular quizzes to recall what we had learnt. You are an excellent educator. (Shannon P)
  • Yes, it was a good match. For my own personal development but also to transfer my knowledge to the clients I see as well as my own children. (Colleen R)
  • Thank you for an excellent course I will definitely be using this in my practice as well as personal studies. (Desiree S)
