Waktu ketemu buku ini pertama kali di perpustakaan universitas, serasa menemukan harta karun! Bagiku, buku ini tidak cuma menyediakan segudang tips yang bisa digunakan dalam kegiatan belajar mandiri-ku, tetapi memberikan penjelasan terkait alasan di balik setiap aktivitas belajar dan tugas yang ada. Meskipun penerapannya tidak 100% sama kulakukan dengan apa yang disampaikan di buku ini, aku menikmati membacanya dan melakukan berbagai aktivitas yang ada di dalamnya.
Bagian favoritku adalah "how to build your confidence" dan "how to be reflective". Setelah membaca dua bagian itu, aku jadi tahu bahwa mengubah kebiasaan belajar membutuhkan kepercayaan diri dan itu bisa dilatih. Serta, aku jadi tahu bahwa belajar tanpa merefleksikannya dengan menyadari apa yang sudah dipelajari adalah belajar yang kurang berkesan. Oleh karena itu, sebosan-bosannya belajar di kelas, cobalah merefleksikannya dengan bertanya pada diri sendiri, "apa yang kupelajari dari proses pembelajaran kali ini?"
