I’m literally failing physics so now I’ve decided to rely on YouTube videos to study and at least get higher marks now. Thank you!

[Lailamoreno]

This is so helpful I have a physics exam tomorrow! So thank you so much!!

[miratic]

I'm a second year IGCSE student and my mocks are scheduled a month away now I'm trying learning everything in 30 days and your videos are a life saver !!

i can't explain how much ur channel has helped me with revision, tysm 🙏

[Alva]

This is the last time I watch your videos, and let me just say that you have helped me so much throughout my GCSE science exams! I wish you the absolute best, cause you have saved my GCSE grades.

[theodosiskaritzis]

I'm writing my physics finals tmr. Thank you so much for making this video, it was unclear in my book

[mohammednabeel]

This is very helpful makes physics easy

[pisonic]

This is nice, you didn't over complicate things as other people on YouTube have done....I'm actually in 7th grade right now, and it was actually pretty good! Very simple words but 100% understanding accuracy. You've got a new subscriber [Schools suck, I have the force chapter without Newtonian laws! (they don't teach us high grade physics, I just happen to be interested in maths and physics!)]

[AbhayHero]

Student: So is gravity a scalar or vector.
Teacher: Ummm...(looks in book)
Cognito:Gravity is a scaler quantity

U deserve sm more subs ur vids r so easy to understand

[RAYRAY-koxe]

Am impressed how I understand the video in 3 minutes than crazy

[angelusadgopul]

I just realized vector from despicable me says that he commits crimes with direction and magnitude witch references vectors.
awsome

Omg you just explained me a concept i had been strugglung on for soo ling in just 3 mins 🤯

[GNGzT]

My teacher is nothing on you, you explain everything so well but my teacher explains it as if I'm in university
