Level 1: $1.99 per month gives you access to a google sheet with a full updated, well organized, linked listing of all the videos and other resources such as worksheets and solution sets.
Level 2: $4.99 per month gives you access to new videos. The new videos include IB style multiple choice and problem solving questions with full explanations, previews/reviews of the course content, and updates to the video lessons.
Many students have written to thank me for the success they had with their IB Physics exams and their IA or Extended Essay. Though the style is that of Khan Academy, the videos are more specific to the IB content, contain more simulations and interactive examples, and are performed by someone who has 25 years of experience teaching IB Physics, an MSc in Physics from a top University, and who was an NSERC scholar.
"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."

I graduated IB 2 years ago. Saw this in my recommendation, Just wanted to say you are Amazing!!
Really appreciate all the help you've given us students!

You've saved over 100, 000 lives with your videos, graduated 3 years ago and you it got me a 7, thanks again!

I just realized something, the light blocked at the slit can still go through some materials, just so little of it, you can't see it, but it can still react to the light pattern by causing diffraction because the light is still polarized.
