"I would just like to say a massive thank you to you for uploading your videos. I started the IB [and]decided to try HL Physics as it seemed interesting. It turned out to be very far from my forté and I was consistently getting 3s and 4s in tests and mock exams. So a few months before the exam period of this year, I began to panic...Then I discovered your channel. For four weeks prior to paper one, I virtually worshipped your videos, and worked along to them in my 'Big Book of Revision.' Last week, I received my results. Incredibly and almost unbelievably, I obtained a 6 in HL Physics. Not only that, but I was 3 marks off a 7."

Hi Mr Doner! I’m a recently graduated IB student of the 2021 class - I took SL Physics and would like to wish you the heartiest of thank yous as your videos were instrumental in helping me obtain a very satisfactory grade of 6 in the M21 exams. Especially since I started off with 2s and 4s in my tests prior to serendipitously discovering your YouTube channel. I found your definitions of key terminologies, visual illustrations of forces and energies, and past paper examples to be particularly compelling in helping me enforce my knowledge on all the SL topics.

You’re a blessing to IB Physics students worldwide and I wish you all the best! Thank you again for all your help to not just myself but also to this community of students :)

Got a 7 in my physics mock, and it's all thanks to your videos. Couldn't have done it by myself!!

Hi mr. doner!!! quick question, i know the syllabus asks to know how to "determine accelereation experimentally" which is what you just showed. Do you know what type of questions are connected to that requirement?

Could you explain why the answer is a, before marker 1?
I didn‘t get it :/
