About once per year, I offer a new public session of my course, Rapid Learner. This is a six-week program that is designed to make you a better student, professional and lifelong learner. If you’ve found my essays on the science of learning helpful, or found my learning projects (MIT challenge, The Year Without English, Foundations) interesting, this course shows you how to do it.

This is the new edition of the course, which includes 20+ newly-recorded lessons, deep dives, walk-throughs and more. If you’re looking to get better at learning difficult things, this course is the place to start.
This course is designed for students who want to do better in school with less stress and studying, professionals who need to master hard skills to get ahead and people who just like learning and want to do it better. The course is divided into six weeks where you’ll learn:
- How to set up a learning project you’ll actually finish.
- How to manage your time and energy to learn, on top of your work.
- The ingredient common to all successful learning efforts.
- The process to deeply understand any idea.
- How to remember anything.
- How to master and maintain everything you learn.
If you have any questions about the course at all, please email me directly and I’ll do my best to answer them!
Registration will only remain open until midnight on Friday, April 18th, 2025, (Pacific time).
