From my college days, I wanted to be a teacher, but life happened, and I ended up being a Chartered Accountant. I don't mean I don't love being an accountant, but I know I am much better at explaining difficult things. So I combined these 2 things and have started a YouTube channel. I don't know if I will ever be able to grow my channel and become big. Even if I am able to teach a few people, it makes me happy. 1 thing is sure, I am doing what I love to do on YouTube. Thanks, YouTube, for making my long-awaited wish come true! I am loving it! ❤

I started making videos on Engineering topics. I found it a great way to keep the record of my own learning.

😱I've started an educational channel for less than two months ago, and now I already have 7000+ subscribers. I didn't expect that much growing withing this time. YouTube is crazy! 😁

I've started an educational channel on PhD level education and research about four months ago and now it is growing very fast!

Everybody could create an educational channel!
The problem is just, people do not see their own knowledge as something interesting. They often think it would be redundant and others wouldn't look at their content, but we all have to understand that it just takes a lot of time to build the community and that everybody can show things in a different way! :)

[GeneticsLessons]

I started my channel about Genetics 8 years ago, now It is 25 000 subscribers, not much, but growing steadily 500-600 subscribers per month.

I am teaching about birds! There's so many surprising bird lifestyles and features that are all around us, but nobody knows about them. I work with birds professionally and it is my personal and professional goal to find and share information about birds. Thanks for teaching us how to teach better!

[AfraidToAskYT]

I'm working to build a financial education channel that focuses on the basics that most channels gloss over!

[paragondreams]

I want to start a neuroscience channel. I'm not an expert but I am deeply interested in the topic and read about it often. I want to make my channel fun, with flavor, share jokes but make the information easily accessible.

For my fourth YouTube channel that I started, I decided on teaching math and physics as they're my favourite subjects at school and I see a lot of potential in them as I als search for videos on them too

I started my channel sometime back and after watching this video shifted focus primarily on educational content. It's doing well. Thanks!

My channel is on Social Studies with an emphasis on U.S. history...I focus on events/topics that aren’t on textbooks that much and that defy pre-conceived notions if applicable!

[Everydaystarlet]

I'm transitioning my channel from Beauty to Health and Fitness because that's where my passion is right now... I want to inspire women to start their own fitness journey and be the best version of themself❤

[SureLaa]

I switched my channel to a Public Health educational channel when I started my MPH; doing what I love!

[ahazfernando]

My channel was started by your inspiration sir and today I'm a huge pro at this.. Respect ❤️💯

[outofthequicksand]

I just started my YouTube channel this week. It's been on the back burner for MONTHS. Since I'm already doing videos on Instagram and Facebook, pulling the videos onto this platform only made sequential sense. My audience is for parents - helpful parenting tips using The Success Principles. It's been fun. Do I have any subscribers yet? Nope! But that's because you're the first group I'm sharing this with. (I wanted me be comfortable with the uploading process before inviting the world to see it!)

Great tips! I recently graduated from uni and my channel will be to share all the things I learned as a student including academic how-to's and mental health.

I already have a channel which is like 4 years old but I have started teaching Electrical Engineering topics here. Luckily it is working slowly but steadily.
