About this listen

Go from poor learner to pro-learner without buying into the many myths

Imagine that there was a way to improve your ability to learn, so that you could move toward your goals faster. Think what would happen if you didn’t have to struggle so much to get a little result, and that you could make great progress for the effort you put in.

Internationally best-selling author I. C. Robledo collected information from a wide range of sources to show you what you need to know about learning. Realize that learning is a skill that can be improved. If you master this skill, it can help you make progress in many other areas.

  • How slower learners are often underestimated, and can surpass expectations
  • What we can learn from the fun and curiosity children bring to learning
  • Why knowing your motivation and purpose is key when learning something new
  • What type of learner you are: exploratory generalist, project tackler, or curriculum developer

Understand how learning works, and use it to your advantage with No One Ever Taught Me How to Learn.

Great book

It covers all the ways I like to learn and the techniques I currently use that aren’t the most effective but work really well for me. At the end of the book it states to take action, something is better than nothing. Great book

A great primer

You can't have it both ways- a book that goes into depth about "how" to learn is going to be a lot longer than 2 hours. I own some of those books already. This, on the other hand, is a good, concise book to refresh yourself on learning strategies while on the commute to work. It's a good pick-up book. For the price and the length of the book, I was satisfied.

Author himself doesn't ask enough questions

He has about half right. Unfortunately, in the places where he himself has not learned enough, he fills the gaps with stiff, narrow objectives or irrelevant, short-sighted judgment. As a result, all his advice is full of unexamined contradictions.

For example, why does he so confidently dismiss the concept of learning styles, when he later acknowledges that different people may not get the same effect from reading? What does he think the difference is between "style" and "way" that makes the latter term more correct? He doesn't explain this in the book. He leaves it hanging with the weight of implication, and the only subtext I can find in that section is that he just has a personal grudge against the term. Unexamined.

Besides that, the advice is mostly common sense. Laying it out does have some use but I doubt it is honestly more helpful to anyone than just going about learning the ways they already do. There's not even anything about how to evaluate information that one finds or receives, just a few small cautions that one should.

I wonder what he has learned in the 7 years since writing this.
