USNo Ratings YetThe program did a wonderful job at teaching actionable strategies while continuously circling back to self-compassion as we started implementing the techniques for learning well.

[The facilitators] were amazing and I would 1000% recommend this workshop, and would even consider joining again in the future if that were appropriate.

I came away with so many effective tools and tips, and the weekly sessions allow for sequentially trying things out and reflecting on how they worked.
Learning Well for Grads participant
I really appreciated how the program acknowledged and worked from the idea that most barriers have to do with negative emotions about oneself or one's capacity, as opposed to simply scheduling or something. I was able to be vulnerable and I benefited from other participants sharing their emotions as well.
