I’m here cuz I got 1 question correct on a quiz.

I'm embarrassed to say that I earned my part-time doctorate while working full-time but didn't know many basic maths. Your channel has helped me immensely in bridging my knowledge gap.

[fearisallie]

The way you explain things just somehow makes everything so much easier to understand and process. Thank you!

[serae]

Watching this to study a math evaluation. This video made me feel way more at ease about what I gotta do. Thank you!

[brrrayday]

Vectors really aren't difficult, you just gotta break them down and work each piece. Then put it all together again, and you've learned calculus (philosophically, at least)

I don't think I can thank you enough. I have my first physics 1315 exam today (a literal Sunday btw) after putting it off for so many semesters, and I actually feel decently confident. TY

hey, I'm starting physics and this was really helpful!! and you got a subscriber

[rahimaakbari]

ur classes are so simple! whyyy??? thank you so much!! :)

[fayexiao]

Thankyou so much! This was so helpful, watching you draw it out beats reading text explanations anyday

Im in Australia in year 9 and im doing vector’s cause im in my school’s advanced math class. Anyway just wanted to let u know that this video was simple enough for even me to understand. So just know that i literally recommended this to everyone in my class and made them sub to ur amazing channel :))

[sofijamarkovic]

I’ve had this explained to me multiple times, but this video was the best explanation!

[nathanielmarshall]

I am studying for the MCAT and I wasnt aware about adding/subtracting vectors... This video helped A TON!!!! Thank you!!! You got a SUB!!!!

[dewdrophaze]

thank you so much sir! i was so close to breaking down because i don't understand the concept. but i thankfully got the point of adding and subtarcting vectors after watching your videa. I subscribed!

[aRevoulutionNeeded]

Well done, the book makes this so much more difficult. Thanks!

[dupa]

Seriously !!!! Thanks a lot sir for this amazing work. I was sitting there idle when my teachers taught me this but ur a legend! I didn't hesitate to subscribe to ur Chanel ❤️😊

Wow, learning else where i didnt grasp it the way they explained it. Thanks a ton for making it make clear sense!!

[kirrr]

I just finished my physics notes and I was still confused, but your video helped me a bunch! Thanks!

[agasthhyasharma]

BROOO U ARE AMAZING. I watched like 20 videos and didnt understand shit and you explained it so easily

[EagleTopGaming]

I am here because I got confused adding vectors to get a projectile to move correctly in Unreal Engine 4.
