ABOUT ME
My name is Gohar Khan, and I'm an MIT grad helping you succeed at school. I make videos about study strategies, college applications, and occasionally, my day-to-day life. I want to equip students with the tools, knowledge, and resources they need to realize their academic potential.

Hey Gohar! I just wanted to say, thank you so so much! I am currently in 8th grade and moved to the US in 2021. Your videos are truly helpful for any sort of person. You have helped me fit in and succeed anywhere I go. I moved from India to Seattle in August 2021. Then in August 2022, I moved to Northern Virginia. Even in NOVA, I moved schools. Thanks to your videos, I am having a blast in middle school and hope to have an amazing future ahead of me. Again, thank you so much!

Thank you Gohar for these clear and informative videos. I just started 9th grade, and watching you has removed a ton of stress from my school life. I am now so addicted to your videos I am not sure if you making me a better student or helping me procrastonate. I am also into web development and seriously look up to you for what you do.

[@trev.louis_23]

I love this right from the introduction: that performing better doesn't involve necessarily doing much more drastic things, but instead correcting those small errors in what we've been doing already. Simplicity in a strategy will lead to a more maintainable success! *Bloom's Taxonomy.... very interesting...explains a lot about learning different material.
