How can you figure out what you would like to do? How can a student decide what career to pursue? To answer this question, you must try different things, use the full length of the keyboard. If you want to know which sounds you like and which sounds you don’t like, you must first hear them. Online courses provide just such an emphasis.
Tatiana Chernigovskaya, Director of the Institute for Cognitive Studies at St. Petersburg State University, an author of the online courses ‘Neurolinguistics’ and ‘Psycholinguistics’
