WOW...Absolutely loved your method of teaching. I am a visual learner, not many people truly understand the issues that come with visual learner. We process information in 3 stages: we hear it, now we have to repeat it to our selves so we can visualize to what we can refer to, so we can truly understand it. Example, what normally would take a person to read and get it, it would take us double the time. I have a masters degree in Forensic Psychology so it is not to say I or others like me won't succeed, but teachers like you makes it so much easier. THANK YOU

I’ve been watching a few people doing these calculations and let me tell you, my brain exploded a few times. This was the easiest explanation I have seen. Thank you sir🙏🏼

nursing student here!! thank you for this video. online lecture is hard but the way u explained it was so much easier!

[anderseckstrand]

You are a damn good teacher. I’m not a nursing student and I suck at math, but because of how you broke this down, I can confidently say that I can perform dosage calculations now. Even in the event of a potential unit conversion.

Do 100 of these practice questions and you’ll be a pro! 👌🙏

[tiffanygardner]

THANK YOU! I am in term one of my nursing school and just started medication admin, and they kind of refuse to teach us or its very fast paced and I wasn't understanding. Found your video and now I know how to do it! This was well needed certainly during these times where students are taking the place of instructors!

[beverlyramsahai]

Thank you so much. Am doing lpn online now and am currently at dosage. My instructor makes me so unhappy bcuz I he doesn't break things down and am a visual learner so u know how that goes. Am not about to fail and this video explained everything I was lacking.

Thank you for this notation, "a volume is not a dose" it helped me to identify my calculations in giving respiratory medications which are in percentages.
