You are 'expontentially' better than my high school.teacher. 🙂

[junipersr]

I had an appointment and missed the intro to logarithms and exponentials in my advanced functions class and I have a test next week. I'm doing a binge of your videos and it's helping so much!! My teacher is great but I like having things explained in different ways to really cement it and you're a saviour when I miss class.

Dude you saved my butt in class omg I recommended you to all my friends thanks for the help

[patriciaharrison]

I am a high school math teacher and I love your videos. You explain everything so well

[arod]

Thank you Mario! I watch your videos because my algebra 2 teacher doesn't teach. Your videos are very easy to understand and you make a lot of them. Thank you and keep it up!

I pay 50 thousand dollars a year for my school fees, and this guy is better than my mathematics teacher.

[apothe]

this method of turning logs into exponential form is amazing. also drawing the new origin makes graphing a breeze

[BESTFORYOU]

You are the perfect example of how a teacher should teach.

[susanphiri]

Wow you are a real life saver....you have just saved my exams

[deezkneez]

How do you do this with a number in front of the log? Like if example 4 was -5

[starGirl-dlrx]

Very well explained. Thank you. Please, there's one question that makes it hard for me to use your working out style, and it's: Y= 3-log based 4 of (5-x)

I can't seem to do that with the (5-x). I thought the asymptotote would be on the left side since 5 is positive, but it turns out I was wrong. I'd really appreciate it if you could help me out with this one. I patiently await your response

[name-okcp]

What if b is 1? since 1 to the power of anything is 1

[kawsar]

the way u explain it made me understand it rlly quick, thank u!

[itzelg]

oh period thanks its easier than I thought

[bhanu]

I am irritated with cough. And give me talking friend from cd

[RafaelJaureguiCaball]

I must say your new origin as an open circle was tripping me but then when you used it I was like….freaken awesome technique

[shivangsingh]

Sir I think in question no. 3 origin must of (2, 3) instead of (1, 3)

[uzmameer]

thankyou mario... you have made our lives easier and we now hate math less all because of u.
hands down

[debarshiroy]

Amazing lecture, Sir. Your teaching style really makes it easy like it's nothing. Love ur videos.

Sir your method of teaching is very organised and systematic Impressed💯!

[ravenclawnatsfan]

Thank you so much! My high school teacher really didn’t explain it well and you’re a saving grace
