Being a user for Khan Academy, I absolutely love it. I've excelled my math class, and I use Khan on my free time to get ahead even further, as well as use it for computer programming. I would recommend it to anyone.

[@seyboraarmymoo1057]

I am so happy for him! He is such a genius. He desserves every attention he is getting and more! His videos are really helpful, and his voice is very nice to listen to and you could hear his excitement and his passion which doesnt make it boring at all!!!

Math textbooks should be replaced in American schools with Khan Academy.

[@ellencarpenter3635]

Khan is an incredible tool, and I use it in my classroom as a supplemental resource. However, it doesn't work for everyone. There are some students that are just not motivated and need instruction from an actual person.

[@Anthony-vx6cs]

Know I'm way late to this, Keith, but I completely disagree. I'm double majoring in Mechanical and Electrical Engineering right now, and have used Sal's videos every step of the way (not his software, but again, we're talking K-12, not junior and senior university level work). His videos were essential to my success in Physics 1 (kinematics), 2 (electricity and magnetism), much of 3 (modern Physics and relativity), along with Calculus 1, 2, and 3... If we're talking about education on the k-12 level, Khans work can absolutely educate more kids all the way into Calculus 3 (advanced Calc is what HS's call it?) and college level physics (Freshman level anyway, which is all a HS student would be doing).

[@yugodobo2865]

It should be replaced in every country's school. Especially mine :D

[@antoinetteedwards2120]

Zoe is in 5th grade in Raleigh/Durham. Her class and teacher LOVE Khan. They use Khan Academy everyday in the class. Thank you so much. God bless you Mr. Khan

Because Of Sal I was able to Take the SAT's, and I'm only 13.

[@asuka813]

Mastering concepts at the student's own pace is a great method, I'm glad it is catching on in public school. Being homeschooled this was a normal part of my upbringing; I was able to advance rapidly in areas I had strengths in without being held back, and when a subject was challenging I took extra time if needed. Thus, each subject was in a different grade level. We did this all with text books and paper records, but I can see computers making the task of tracking the progress of a classroom much more efficient and feasible.

Thank you, Salman Khan for helping me understand so many topics that my university students were short to explain in a simple, yet effective manner.

[@ShimmyMD]

to continue my point... There will also be those students who excel and the teacher could then challenge these children accordingly. This kind of approach -- attending to different types of students -- requires training and expertise, therefore I think a career in education is not only going to be necessary but I see it growing.

[@elsasmac]

I've used Khan academy for assistance with my college math class. In some colleges, mine included, you are expected to teach yourself math. Our math classes are online and class is one day a week for 50 mins.You can imagine how difficult it is to ask the professor for help on problems you're not getting AND 35 other people need help too. I can't describe in words how much Khan Academy has helped me. I'll be getting an A in a 5 credit math class thanks to Sal Khan and Bill Gates' Foundation.
