The Keep Learning Community

Join a unique community using research and experience to become better learners and teachers.

Why Join?

We bring together students, teachers, and life-long learners who want to understand learning more deeply, study and practice more effectively, and craft meaningful long-term learning experiences.


One of the strengths of this community is in its diversity of backgrounds and specific use cases for learning how to learn. I learn so much from the dialogue, both from the 'students' and the 'teachers'

When You Join Today

When you join, you’ll get access to the following:

  • A course on the fundamentals of learning. This video-based course covers everything you need to know to have a working knowledge of how human learning works, including sections on the memory system, motivation, comparisons, feedback, and much more. There are 58 videos, along with questions, exercises, and discussion sections.
  • A new course on effective studying practices currently being released. This covers  topics like effective remembering, analyzing your mistakes, ideal practice cycles, note-taking, and more. There are currently 13 videos, with more being released every week. Plus exercises, questions, and discussion sections.
  • A community of thoughtful students and teachers. This is a place where students ask questions about studying habits and about their struggles with learning. It's a place where teachers workshop lessons. It's a place to seek advice and to give advice to others.
  • A growing archive of live-streams and other members-only video content: Livestream Q&As, live study sessions, interviews with experts in their fields.
  • Early access to all of Ben's Youtube videos. And an archive of Ben's old videos which you can watch ad-free.
  • A written guide on diagnosing learning problems, a glossary, and recommendations for learning resources. With more guides and other resources planned in the future.

Hear What People Have to Say

"It’s been difficult to find high-quality practical information on the science of learning, but your work has helped me immensely. I’ve been recommending your content to every student and lifelong learner I know." 

- Justin McCune, banking professional

"Whenever I have a new idea, question, or problem about teaching or learning, I come here. In a sea of mediocre and unscientific information, it's very useful to have a community dedicated to evidence and self-skepticism, but also hope and positivity. I am very glad I've joined."

- Alex Heaton, mathematician

"Benjamin Keep’s learning community has completely transformed how I learn and teach. His courses helped me refine my methods, and I’ve seen the impact firsthand—my students’ MCAT scores improve much faster than before. The community itself is outstanding, far more thoughtful and informed than other online spaces. Most importantly, I can now learn complex material faster than ever. It truly feels like a superpower."

- Chris Cernac, MCAT tutor

FAQ

How much does it cost?

Currently it's $12 USD a month or $120 USD a year.

What's the difference between the videos within the community and the videos on your Youtube channel?

The course videos go into greater depth and they are organized into meaningful sections, with callbacks to prior lessons and previews of future lessons. And they're integrated with questions and exercises. It's something that's just not possible to do on Youtube.

Do you have a program that's just for students or just for teachers?

Although parts of the community serve students and other parts serve teachers, I believe strongly in the value of bringing students and teachers together. The research on learning is often relevant regardless of the role we happen to find ourselves in and many of us (including myself) straddle the line between student and teacher. I think we have more productive conversations together than we do separately.

Will I be able to interact with you?

Yes. I spend some time everyday at Keep Learning and am active answering questions, asking questions, creating new content, and planning events.

What if I don't want to join, but I just want to support your work?

Joining the community is the best way to support my work. You don't have to make use of the resources there. But if you like my other stuff, I think you'd like what you'd find there, too!
