Today I am still just a little kid but I'm doing 6th-grade math. Now I'm doing 6th-grade math word problems. At first time I can't just do a single problem. But when I saw these videos from you I've mastered it now. I can even teach on social media and even teach calculus at entire primary schools! Thanks Eric Buffington.

I truly thank you for helping us all about word problems, how to calculate sales tax, discounts and how to convert percent to decimals (which I had forgotten because I did it a long time ago)

You made percentage so freaking easy. I knew how to do it but I still struggled and out of all the youtubers on percentage I got your way so fast. The way you explained it made it so simple. Thank you and you got a new subscriber

Wow, thanks for teaching this. It really helped me. When I was a kid, I wanted math to be one of the better subjects, but it was hard to figure out some of these math problems. I've been brushing up on my math skills for a year and have been watching your videos to get a better understanding. I finally get the concepts now and this is a much easier way of doing the math.

I am from the Uk and you have simplified it and brought it into the real world which a lot of videos do not do

Cheers from Saudi Arabia. I truly have never enjoyed percentage and discounts solving until watching your vids. Please keep up the good work.

I absolutely thank you for taking the time to solve this. You're a great teacher and I cannot even tell you how much I struggled with fractions and percents (word problems). This video gives an in-depth on how to do so, it helped me have a clear understanding of what to do.

I'm currently in 7th grade and this stuff helps me proceed a higher grade in my mathematics.
