Thanks for helping me pass my biology certification exam to become an agriscience teacher! If my future students are reading this, I’m taking an actual bio course too .. don’t clown me for relying on YouTube for help 😌

[Nebeza]

The only reason I passed biology and even got to love it is because of you and your sister. I can’t express in words how thankful I am for both of you to be making these videos for years! Keep up the great work and know that you have an army of supporters behind you

Thank you so much Amoeba Sisters for all the work you do! I really started to enjoy Biology a little more ever since I started watching your videos.

When I subbed 2 months ago, I saw mostly shorts, it's amazing to see there are still videos coming!

[zeeshansyed]

I Haven't taken biology since highschool but after a couple years, I see your notification I thought to watch anyway. These videos saved me a lot of time in highschool. I watched because not only are Your videos informative but also very entertaining. Congrats for being on YouTube for 9 years!

[spectre_]

You guys are downright amazing at what you do to teach us, and I understand how much hard work it takes for you guys to make these elaborate videos. Thank you.

Thank you Amoeba Sisters for helping my pass classes. Life saver!

I'm a student at Nova Scotia Community College, and our profs use your videos as online lessons!! Since we don't get in-person classes for eCourses, you've very literally helped me get through the semester.

I start Respiratory Therapy school next week and this video is a great refresher before I deep dive into the program! Thank
