Sal, I've been watching your videos since high school, I am in college now and I don't understand a damn thing my teachers teach at school, they're really fast when teaching for they expect the students to know stuff already as they teach. I go home without understanding anything, and I open my laptop and study by watching your videos. I watch all night. I just want to say thank you, for being my professor, for making me understand hard concepts, for making everything simpler, for teaching Calculus, and Chemistry, and this - Biology. Thank you for saving my ass.

I get soooo confused in class and sometimes it may take a while when the teacher is trying to answer my question, which can confuse me more. But with you, I understand and don't have any question, not understanding why. You are very clear and to the point. Sometimes I feel like I am just in class for attendance, but come to you with my textbook for learning. Thank you!!!

For some reason I've never known that the nucleus was a membrane.. it makes so much more sense now! I've taken biology and genetics in high school, and even Biology 101 and, probably to my own fault of inattention, have never heard that... it's so much easier to understand it now!

[@Wilkie1951]

Surely it’s a good idea to explain the etymology of the term used. For example, Chloro Plast Chloro = green Plast = plastic, moulded Prokaryote Pro = before, earlier Karyote = kernel, neucleus Etc, etc... Makes learning more fun, easier, and deeper.
