I love how my teacher has tried to teach me this for 4 days and I picked it up in this video in 8 mins lol

Thank you because I am so lost with this process. Because you went slow and gave clear explanations and did not skip any steps I have a better idea of this process. Thank you!

YES! Thank you!! I watched every video Khan Academy had on this at LEAST twice and could not understand (and when the x shows up in variables it wasn't really explained). I got it after watching this. Thanks again!!

Youtube has everything you need, you just have to search the correct word.

I wish you were my math teacher, you explain this concept in a digestible way. I have trouble in class paying attention in following along so this really helped me, thank you

[xXmeldizzleXx]

This helped out so much! My textbooks totally skips over the reasoning behind this so it got confusing. Thanks a bunch!

THANK YOU
a 8-minute video just saved my entire math grade right now

I’ve used Khan academy, 2 different algebra books, and multiple YouTube videos and it just wasn’t clicking. For some reason, your perspective and way of explaining, is what did it for me. Thankyou very very much.

This video finally got me to the stage of understanding how stuff happens. saved me.

I want to thank you, man. For whatever reason, picking up information in school has been getting increasingly difficult for me, but you presented it in an easy-to-understand and simple way. I don't know where I would be without helpful content such as this!

[emilyforestier]

THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR INCLUDING VARIABLES AND EXPONENTS!! EVERY TIME I TRY AND LOOK FOR ONE THAT WILL EXPLAIN, THEY ONLY USE PERFECT ROOTS

[netiii]

Thank you so much for this! It's been a struggle for me to keep up and focus with everything in school, but I'm glad to say that I'm learning more little by little :D

well done, my teacher, spends time skipping steps and not going over the basic fundamentals that are required for trigonometry, but this covered 90 minutes of his class in less than 10 minutes.

[stevenwaldon]

I've been struggling with this for a while but the way you explained it made it make sense. Thank you so much!

[CrushedToTheDepths]

Congrataz good sir! You managed to teach an English major math! There's no clearer sign of a good math instructor than that. Thank you!

[PCGaming]

Thank you so much! I have an exam in half an hour and this was the one thing I couldn't understand, very easy to follow!
Keep up the Great Work!
