I’ve been following Trevor’s work for quite a few year now, after I attended his talk about growth mindset. I wanted to be more like a jungle tiger and less like a zoo tiger. This podcast, like his prior work, is clear and useful and can be applied relatively easily (it’s not complicated to...Read full review »

This podcast is amazing. I never would have thought it that way.

Really well done, Trevor. We just finished our “Learner” book club with a U14 girls’ soccer team I coach. This was accessible for them, but with enough depth for them to really understand the “why” behind the concepts. Sparked some fantastic conversations. Can’t wait to see what Learner Lab...Read full review »

Trevor presents the most up-to-date science on skill acquisition and improvement in easy to understand and very practical, applicable ways. Not a surprise since he’s been doing so for a while now, but as pretty much everything he’s put out in the past few years, this is more than worth the time....Read full review »

Listen to Trev, he is inspiring and helps you understand what needs to happen. And as Trev says don’t get stuck in phase 1 of learning where you listen/read/research everything, take the leap into phase 2 and put some of it into practice, and then when you get stuck jump back into phase 1 and let...Read full review »

This is a great audio book. There is lots of great information. I think I might have to listen to it again. Well done

As a coach and coach educator, I was shocked by how much I benefited from listening to Learner. I have put it into practice with my teams and workshops with great results and feedback. Bravo, Trev. Keep the good work coming.

One of the best podcasts, first, because the content is so important and universally applicable to all areas of life. Second, because Trevor and Alex are the best.
HNC5687 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/16/21
Trevor’s content has always been terrific and he is great at explaining how things work and why. The latest of the podcast that Trevor shares is his audio book which is a great comprehension of everything he has shared in the past and some great practical ways to work on it. Thank you Trevor!

I first came across the Learner Lab through Changing the Game Project. As a professor, coach and parent, I think the messages and delivery are fantastic. I highly recommend. Not only is the audiobook creative and engaging - but the rest of the website, podcasts and shareable resources online are...Read full review »

Trevor is masterful at taking difficult to understand topics and breaking them down in ways that we can all relate to. Whether it is using analogies like the Jungle/Zoo Tiger or telling stories, the Learner Lab is my go to place to get the best research and approaches for learners of all...Read full review »

I found this learning lab podcast by Trevor was open, honest. It shows his experience, that we can all relate to and easy to listen too in simple language. Despite not being in a good place myself at the moment, I found it resonated with me and I have to ‘learn to dance’ with my lizard....Read full review »

As a teacher, coach, parent and former professional athlete I would highly recommend any resources from The Learner Lab. I have used the podcasts in my classes (after listening and taking notes on all of them myself), and have found students very receptive to the presentations and lessons. ...Read full review »

The audio book the learner should be a requirement for every teacher, Coach and parent. Not only does Trevor tell you the science behind learning. He also give you actionable steps to take when improving a skill. It’s so good I want a hard copy of the book. @alynthomsen

Being able to listen and take in the content delivered has never been easier with your content. Thank you for all you do! Helping create a better educator/coach out of me! Looking forward to more of your work down the road.
BigHornWY_Drew via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/15/21
This “book” is excellent! Trevor does a great job of dissecting the learning process to remove the barriers to learning so we can all enjoy its benefits. Overcoming our fears and understanding that we are all on our own unique learning curve, allows us to be less self-conscious of where we are...Read full review »

The content and delivery in this podcast, and the learner lab / train ugly website may just be the best and most broadly relevant and empowering information available online. Bold statement? Just listen to the first four chapters of the audiobook released for season two (written, read, and...Read full review »

I’ve been a fan of Trevor way back during his PowerPoint presentation days. It’s been awesome to see him and The Learners Lab grow. This podcast is my favorite of all the great content he puts out there for all of us. I listen to it with both my boys and have shared it endless times with coaches,...Read full review »

Really great podcast- based on science but still very understandable and accessible. This information is relevant to literally everyone who wants to learn!
pb12345655555 via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 11/22/21
I use so many of the ideas Trevor share in his podcast with my students! He makes big ideas about learning simple to understand in his podcast. I’ve loved his work since he was talking about Training Ugly and enjoy the new resources and ways he’s supporting the work on learning today!

Wow! Just listened to the most recent episode on Mindset. Believing you can grow is the most important thing about a growth mindset. This has helped me so much! Keep up the great work!!
CareyCadwell via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/31/21
Can’t get enough of the Learner Lab content! Challenges the traditional views about learning & clearly articulates alternative strategies that absolutely make sense. Can’t wait for the next instalment!
Daniel 'Presto' Preston via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 10/29/21
I’ve enjoyed listening and learning from the Learner Lab. Trevor does an awesome job of illustrating leadership qualities and ideas. Well worth the listen!

Have always loved your work since you presented at AVCA. Keep your mind growing as you help expand ours.
JLay45 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/23/21
I have been coaching for nearly 30 years and I can honestly say that I learn something every single episode. I have shared episodes multiple times with my coaching staff and even my teams. 💚
MrJames532 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/22/21
Trevor really dives into how one can become a better learner, but it’s not in a boring or repetitive way. His episodes actually make you engage into what he says and actually breaks it down for us listening. Definitely worth investing time into hearing this podcast!

Learning about learning is always time well spent. Thanks for sharing!

Great podcast for anyone who wants to learn and grow in any area - these guys make the science accessible and they give you great tips on how to use the science to improve your life.
DaddyCaddie via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 03/07/21
So important for coaches, educators, parents, and teachers to listen. Topics are so relevant and important to help young athletes, students, children develop to their potential. Look forward Tuesday drops!

If you work in education, this should be part of your professional development. Great content that really gets to issues beneath the “issues” that we normally discuss in teaching. Great content!

I appreciate this podcast; so much information in a reasonable amount of time. Keep them coming!!!
smajka73 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/19/20
This podcast is very well-presented and shares some excellent information, studies and stories. The episodes build on each other but can also be isolated to focus on specific strategies.

Love this poddie! Listened to Trevor guesting with John O’Sullivan and immediately gravitated towards how he uses examples and anecdotes to bring the content alive. Have used the Zoo vs Jungle Tiger analogy to the table with my boxers, and it instantly ‘stuck!’ The dialogue between you both is...Read full review »

Stumbled upon this podcast through an article on confidence in youth sports and it has exceeded any expectations. Super educational with a practical application and really well edited (love the music and sound effects)!
yogikh via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 05/04/19
The idea of the podcasts is to give the theoretical stuff practical meaning works for me! A lot to take in and to work with. (And yet more books to read this summer). Looking forward to series two! Martin

Great insight and interviews from the learners lab crew. Best thing about this pod is the applications they provide for everyday skills and learning.

I love this podcast! It’s like sitting with friends who are very driven (my favorite kind) at a coffee house and hearing what they’ve been learning.

I love learning, and learning how to learn is even better!! The brain is an amazing machine we vaguely understand, but this show is helping me to not only learn, but to teach. Episodes are long enough to dive into a subject, and short enough to keep your attention.
Alanderson1978 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/12/19
I learned about Trevor Ragan’s website about six years ago. It was mentioned on USA Volleyball’s blog and thankfully, I checked out TrainUgly.com. His work on growth mindset, motor learning, and random training has transformed the way that I coach. Coaching is still tough, but coaching with a...Read full review »
