[@nickbaumann2421]

Sal Khan is a legend and one of the top reasons I'm in medical school right now, thank you Sal

[@JuanCChavez]

Yo, I was learning about the Nepoleonic Wars and WW1 because of his videos while I was in the county jail! This dude really is out here teaching everyone.

[@los7187]

I hope you’re doing well.

[@JuanCChavez]

@los7187 I am! Thank you!

[@Helloyou-m5d]

Fantastic!

[@keepingupwithjustine9885]

I appreciate this man. I graduated college with a 4.0 because of him

[@christianortega2883]

"I think you can too" at the end brought me to TEARS!!!! omg

[@jarebellum]

Sal Khan is the reason I'm pursuing a master's in data science, and probably also the reason I graduated high school at all

[@FarahNaz-l9x]

My son was struggling in math and he performed very well in board exams bcz of khan. I pray for him everyday

[@tfreeb7353]

Love Khan Academy!! Helped my son with 8th grade math to get him on better footing!! Huge Fan!!

[@mr.kissoon7250]

Thank you for sharing this! Khan Academy helped me pass my Math exams and got me on the merit list! Khan Academy is great and deserve all the praise it can get!

[@martycrowss2901]

His calm voice and teaching style were a reprieve and refuge during personal hard times. Thank you Sal.

[@athluisa]

Khan Academy changed my life for the better ❤

[@blindyoutubeuser]

Sal Khan goes unrecognized way too often. One of the most influential people of all time

[@elizabethd3963]

Sal Khan is there for all of us in our moment of intellectual need. Thank you, Sal, for making life easier and more meaningful.

[@2bnew517]

He is a legend! My roommate asked to work with him when we met him in person years ago.

[@germanramirez1822]

This guy is a legend !

[@Aprilmreyes21]

This is absolutely genius what a great difference this is gonna make in our public school system! I just signed up I’m so excited to get my son started.

[@hjwang4477]

He should get Nobel prize. Too bad only the developed countries are taking advantage of this great website. My kids use that and I found his teaching and quiz is very clear

[@innocentinnox]

Khan Academy has helped me a lot since high school, I'm a computer science major now and still rely on it.

[@strawberrymochi4181]

I just want to say thank you to that guy cause my teacher would just play one of the videos and make us write notes from it (most easiest class ever)

[@HunterRed31]

a legend for real. street legend

[@veronikarugun3480]

omg! finally GOD reveals me who's the man behind that voice and draft on the whiteboard. Thankyou so so much Mr Khan! you've helped me a lot . GOD bless you!!

[@johannalizarraga126]

@60minutes please do a revisit where are they now on that little boy ❤. I hope he made it to college

[@tim-duncan2137]

one of the all time greats

[@weston.weston]

I ❤ Sal and his professional mission.

[@AvalonCN]

Sal, if you see this comment, thank you so much! Your lessons have helped me since I was in undergrad. Especially those in calculus, differential equations, and physics. In two weeks, I’ll be graduating with my master’s in biomedical engineering. You are an excellent educator and a great mind. Your lessons will help students for many years to come.

[@safwannafee9554]

An American of Bangladeshi descent. Proud of you Sal Khan sir..❤.

[@anamairazapata6306]

Such a humble men Thank you sgain

[@zinzanman]

amazing.

[@divalocity]

I used Khan Academy for my children and my grandchildren. I will always be grateful for his ingenuity, innovation and dedication.

[@kitty4395]

Because of him I was able to pass the high school exit exam 🤣years ago

[@Random_How-tos]

I haven’t watched the video yet, but if it wasn’t for this guy teaching me how to do algebra after common core left me behind I would not be in college right now.

[@sakinaarab4922]

The world needs you Mr Khan

[@elsafischer3247]

I wish we could have this in German, I have a granddaughter here in Zürich and she has to take a exam to get to the high school to go to the university

[@Mir786]

May Allah Subantallah continues to Bless Khan and his Academy....Ameen

[@Leticia-s3t1q]

Thank you Mr. khan!

[@joelanzo]

Thanks

[@shahryarhussain1001]

Amazing teacher, I used to watch his lectures when I was in college .

[@k.p.2706]

Many years later and Sal Khan has kept his word. Remember, many of the teachers who doubted his technique are still teaching today. That should unsettle you.

[@john_in_Berlin]

We "flipped the classroom" back in 1978 in Tacoma at one of the nation's first magnet schools. In math class, we worked on our own, with the teacher available when needed. At the end of the week, we called out our page numbers, done. If you finished a section, you took the test and moved on. Everyone worked at their own pace.

[@HummairaAzam]

Wow inspiring

[@heatherparker3371]

Hero❤❤❤

[@josephhuang1163]

My aunt would LOVE this

[@anamairazapata6306]

Wow! I just met the men behind the voice. I used khan academy last semester on College It helped me soooooooo much Thank you so much

[@Ryansanvy]

Hidden Gem 💎 💎

[@AlphaMuon]

We ❤ you!!

[@raksmi1903]

Khan helped made me become an engineer

[@bouramasidibe6418]

Great

[@HummairaAzam]

We often forget that where we are sitting at is the land of opportunity with lots of lots of educational opportunity that brings the best out of us so we should not forget to point out the good resources we have in United States of America. We should not forget that those resources are the main cause of our independent more technical and technology wise. They are way ahead of it in the whole world. There are the pioneers of the in technology, so I believe that we should not forget, pointing that out instead of just talking about hisconnections, his abilities and that’s very inspiring too, but we should not forget that the resources of this country, the taxpayers are paying towards that, and we get all type of resources to inspire others to be more educated to educate others by with these better resources

[@habiyakaretheodore6087]

Is this the guy behind all of those science rich videos. Waooo

[@juliesluandre]

This would be so awesome if they can also implement this in less developed places such as africa

[@sandrawalker4555]

I found this so interesting. My friend Patsy was working on this concept of learning and published her own book about her concept.

[@Peace_Of_Mind789]

He is born genius from Bangladeshi descent….proud of him

[@everyday-lifestyle]

Proud of khan academy!

[@cg-win2067]

Thank you Sal Khan! You helped me through nursing school. 🥲

[@TechSiyaad]

True legend without a doubt.

[@Dadoy1775]

It's people helping people that will get one out of poverty or slump, not the government or establishment.

[@smrtzttspanishenglishtutor67]

Great math method of learning.

[@reyesmera]

When did this originally air? I would liove to see an update

[@nagatang9725]

This is the way forward.. The same class does not equal the same rate of learning..and moreover those who got that aha...will keep on moving forward, leaving the rest behind. This can make the teacher caught in a very difficult situation. I can solved 100% of the math questions where some of my classmates hardly can solve any. But in normal school classroom situation the next lesson will be new module leaving many students falling more behind ( topic #1, topic #2) while 5 to 20% can get thru every topic.

[@drz400sy8]

Like this for math. Hope it works for other important subjects as well. Will this be part of DOGE. Hopefully it will not get over managed with bureaucracy and monitoring; and overly push kids to be experts in everything. Still need social interaction, activity, healthy foods and this really keeps things “fair”. Great informative video and education savings.

[@johnconner4695]

60 min but 13 min! Should have been 60 min

[@gregnixon1296]

AI democratizes access to tutoring to solve the Two Sigma Problem. I am a big fan of it. If students use tech for learning as it’s intended, it will be world changing.

[@godfredbaahappiah8806]

Renovating classrooms through technology 😊

[@tatumd1234]

It would be interesting to see where the kids are at today

[@bonolomakgatadeluent3150]

I didn't know Khan is India Thanks for helping us

[@_Arsh_x9]

Bangladeshi

[@safwannafee9554]

Sal Khan is an American of Bangladeshi descent.

[@lianasekro8121]

Where is Nadia now

[@saraiochoaso]

8 years is accurate. its how long it took me to finish his videos and college

[@jamforall]

It's good when it first came out ten years ago, but now AI has taken over this job so thank you Khan

[@hamdan705]

Bravo bravo bravo what a Greta person

[@Mashallah-u1z]

Innovation never comes from established institutions. Wao

[@LeonardGalit]

Wonderful. my brother was a math professor. He was one of the most selfless people I've never met. God bless them both.

[@harveysp5899]

❤

[@starcreatios5409]

I am indian. I like this education, indian education system😂😂😂

[@3030shizon]

Could you imagine teachers not teaching geez

[@Hreno1114]

He looks like Ray Ramano

[@XAirForcedotcom]

When I ran for president I also warned the world about COVID-19 in 2020. I told the GS 15 at DOE that we needed an online education system, and it didn’t happen. Now we have the ability to actually create an AI driven education system for the entire world, and it should absolutely be free. Woot!

[@XAirForcedotcom]

We need to think about that part of our real education is to talk about relationships and sex in a way that adults feel uncomfortable. All of the uncomfortable subjects that are hard for humans to talk about together need to be implemented as a part in overall education system. Learning about the Fana and Flora, wildlife around you would not only make you appreciate nature, but allow you to survive in situations where AI might go down.

[@XAirForcedotcom]

What’s interesting is just because someone’s sitting in class if they are too far ahead in one area the teacher could absolutely allow them to go work on assignments in areas that they may not do well in or give them more advanced concepts that would help them later on.

[@XAirForcedotcom]

We will be able to use AI to deliver the most effective content to individuals once they know your particular learning style. once we get this down, then we’ll work on pre-birth education. An interesting field of study would be to see if we can give Information to the fetus. Light, sound, and haptic feedback. Your baby is born and grew with hello Bill and Marcy. : )

[@XAirForcedotcom]

I’m doing this on the web and I went and looked at the KZbin app and none of this is showing up there. I have a degree in workforce education and development and I am your retired military. You can’t explain why my information is being hidden.

[@XAirForcedotcom]

The real wrath of Khan is when, Kahn Academy tells the world that their government are corrupt, and to fight back : )

[@SymunThamid-jy9dx]

Great gay from Bangladesh 🇧🇩

Suddenly cnn doc is doing 60 minutes on math. Goes to Indians getting all tokens in the US! DEI!!!!!!

[@robinmyman]

Pse educate girls.

[@jshellenberger7876]

The whole purpose of having an education system to teach kids the food pyramids and how to not eat cookies in the morning for breakfast that they’re gonna learn at school and where money comes from is from mom and they’re gonna learn at school, however the premise of a teacher’s union is based on the fact that there are formal outpatient statistics and formal inpatient statistics for hospitals that clarify unknown causes of deaths among collective cultures and among individual species and among species of individuals and species of collective cultures by not keeping outpatient statistics blew away the STUDENTS . #POW KIA

[@azizmalik2818]

How billionaire make the money 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😊

[@bearacuda]

Do you see the problem with this? When Mr. Khan needs to teach a subject he "reads 4-5 books on the subject" so he can turn around and teach it. The best way to learn something is to try to teach it. Students are not developing the critical thinking skills, the math literacy skills, while learning the math concepts. The videos are good as a supplement. But a student should be tasked with using their brain to solve the problem. Translate what was taught, demonstrated, and modelled with their brain. These kids are being trained to become DEPENDENT on others to provide answers instead of developing the skill to find their own answers. Wouldn't you like for your kids to also develop the skill to read about a topic in 4-5 different sources and piece together a solution on their own? This won't happen RELYING on the Khan system this way. Students have to struggle. It does not mean they don't get support. But they need to struggle in order to GROW and LEARN.

[@bearacuda]

In fact, a few minutes ago I just discussed with a student of mine the necessity of developing the skill to be an independent learner. That happens when answers aren't just given to you, but you work to understand and develop them yourself. In the classroom scene I saw, students are not taking notes. How is that going to work in a work environment when they are older. They will not write down instructions their bosses give them, they will expect their bosses to hold their hands and give them videos of their instructions?

[@HoneyNutOwnzYou]

This video was made in 2012. In an interview in 2016, Sal Khan stated "I think they're valuable, but I'd never say they somehow constitute a complete education." Khan Academy more positions itself as a supplement rather than a primary source of education unlike what the video depicts at the school it piloted one of its programs in. In the next clip after that you can see a student using it as a way to revisit a subject at his own pace after school, which is the approach Khan Academy is being used as today. I have personally used Khan Academy in the supplement approach and I can say that I wouldn't have been able to understand certain subjects to the extent I do today without it. In my physiology lecture class in university it was often difficult for me to process information before the professor moved on to another subject because they taught at their own pace. It was particularly difficult for me to visualize how blood moves through the heart during one class. Using one of his videos I was able to revisit the subject and learn at my own pace and dynamically imagine in my head how the blood changed direction according to the anatomy of the heart. Online videos have become an effective and convenient form of modern education that further helps comprehensive understanding of topics.

[@JustinDiazJokes]

khan was the biggest bozo. all his videos were a huge waste of time just repeating the stuff from wikipedia. at least for math, i would avoid his videos

[@Onceeverybody]

Heard bill gates and immediately lost interest 😅..
