@@starinsky2873 Nothing makes you more peaceful than having a long and successful life ahead of you. Khan Academy does so much to provide that for people all around the world. My daughter just turned 6 and she's nearly mastered the 5th grade curriculum in Khan Academy. Not because she is smart, but because the instructions are amazing and the platform makes you want to keep going and getting better.
Khan saved my life. I almost killed myself senior year because I felt I wasn’t enough to be successful. Because of Sal, I became confident in my learning abilities. I am now pursuing a doctorate in Physical Therapy. Thank you Sal.
I’m 39 now and work as a software engineer. I now embrace education and try to learn as much as I can. I lament at how badly I treated my teachers when I was a young, dumb teenager. If only at that time, I had valued the treasures that they were giving me; treasures which allow you to live a stable, happy, successful life. As a teenager, I would have looked at this room negatively as a bunch of annoying nannys but now I look at them as heroes. Thank you to all teachers, for what you put up with every day, and I’m very sorry to the ones I was so rude to , several decades ago.
His videos quite literally dragged me out of a depression I was in cause I believed I was incapable of learning or doing anything good in my life. Just in the year 2018 alone I went from less than 5,000 activity points to over 900,000, all from watching and reading articles on Algebra 1, 2, Geometry, US History, World History, Chemistry and Biology. This site fitted perfectly with my ideal mode of learning, and continues to be the driving force of my education. Sal Khan, you quite literally saved my life. Thank you.
I really appreciate Nadia for coming out of the bubble and asking a doubt with her cousin, that's where the thought of Khan Academy really started. Students should really ask doubts and expand the horizons of learning. love Sal
He is a star on the earth who accelerated the life of human science with his light, because No matter how strong your eyes are, you cannot see anything without light , and his knowledge became a light for millions who would have been deprived of science if they did not have it. He is the discoverer of universal science, simultaneity and eternity, and with his knowledge, time can be repeated thousands of times! It's as if all the people in the world can hear what you say at the same time, and it's interesting that it can be repeated thousands of times in all languages. It's indescribable, but it's praiseworthy.
What an absolute legend. He originates from my country, from Bangladesh. Single most inspiring person and event in my life. Gotta do something good with my life, with my time.
Well im here in 2021 pandemic (coronavirus), and i sit in front of a screen on average for 7-8 hrs everyday. And i use khan academy everyday. Like this if your situation is similar 👍
Thank you so much Google Talks! Salman Khan is one of the greatest personalities of the Time and the core center of my degree's final article. He is amazing! As a teacher I am so glad to watch how far and productive Khan Academy grows. Hugs to all teacher around the world. Haribol!
I was in my fourth year of my undergraduate program and needed a higher GPA and more credits to get my degree in less than a month, thanks to khan academy I was able to learn 2 whole 1st year university level subjects in one month which would have taken a lil over half a semester to learn in a classroom setting. It also led to me brushing up on other subjects I was weak in and was able to improve my GPA even further. Its's not really about the GPA but the fact I have the understanding of many concepts which comes to me naturally , allowing me to work on real life applications that seemed almost impossible before. I am soo thankful to khan academy. I wouldn't have gotten my degree and gotten to where I am today without them.
Wow, God Bless Ann and God Bless Sal Khan! His videos are amazing, when I get financially stable I will make sure to make a monthly donation. He is doing such amazing work.
I thank salman khan so much he helped me through my tough AP classes (w horrible teachers) and SAT. Bc of his help i got a full ride academic scholarship. Thank you
you are both a genius and a philanthropist , Sal.. i hv just started learning basic maths from khan academy, those i forgotten already. Your style of teaching is just amazing.. wish i had a teacher like you back in my school days, i would hv got a phd in mathematics ..hahaha.. Really, you gained that respect from million of students those learn everyday from your academy.
I will one day definatly meet him and call him as my '3 best teacher 'you know parents are first.my age is 14 and at this age I am learning integral calculus. I am good at calculus because of Sal sir thank you very much . and all the best in the mission of yours
Well, Thank you Sal Khan and team for all your efforts. And all the people and the Co. who believe and support the idea. In 2019 Khan Academy finally started to speak in Uzbek, thanks to our entrepreneur Batir Arifdjanov.
What an amazing platform for learning! You have done incredible work for so many. During the NY State school closures due to COVID 19, you give me hope. With appreciation and respect.
_What_ a story, _what_ an amazing person and _what_ an inimitable way of telling his story! I discovered the Academy a few months ago, from a math reference on an online economics course, and have since been hooked! Especially in these tough times resources like that are inestimable, invaluable. God bless you Sal!
I remember when I was in university and had a linear algebra class, I was like "sure, fine, linear transformations, eigenvalues, mh mh" and I just effectively learned how to compute all the stuff. I passed the exam, but needless to say, I never even tried to grasp why that one complex formula gives me a "generalized inverse". And I was not fond of that. So I started wondering *why* does this stuff work, *how* are these things connected and how in the world could mathematicians come up with this generalized inverse? Then I found the linear algebra class on KA and every time I was on a train travel, I watched a video, then reflected on it, and did not stop before I deeply and intuitively understood what was going on. So, eventually the KA course ended, and it did not cover the concept of generalized inverses. But with all the genuine intuition I built up on linear algebra, I sat down and I was actually able to deduce the whole formula for the generalized inverse from scratch by myself! I was now one of those mystical mathematicians who could invent formulas that do fantastic stuff! And that was the very moment when I really valued what mastery learning is about. And I decided that was the only kind of learning I would do from now on. That was four years ago, and now I am a scientist and see a beauty behind all those formulas and concepts and how they interplay. So if you are ever in a situation where you could either learn for a test and are tempted to learn in and out a computing scheme, do not do it. Rather, try to see what's behind it, don't stop asking "why" until you really understood it. It's a tough road and you'll need a strong will to walk on it. But in the end, you'll have a really rewarding feeling of understanding. And you'll be proud of yourself as you are able to say that you now have the ability to deduce new knowledge and be an actual scientist in this area.
Excellent way of sharing!! Mr. Khan gave great answers, and is so genuine on wanting to better the system in which children are taught. I love Khan Academy!! My child uses it every day. And he is in the spectrum. So THANK YOU Sal!!
I'm being honest... I think I might have done a great thing that I got to know Khan academy. You know, I don't have words to describe it. I just love learning with Khan academy..................
Thank you for referring to Khan Academy as a tool. I am a math teacher, currently in a new school (for me) where the students are quite low. I came into the school half way through the year and saw that the students had not been taught any of their current level math. I had little time to prepare them for the "big test" all students have to take annually. I immediately signed up all my students on Khan Academy. I was shocked at the resistance I received from students, parents and the principal (I did not expect that.) It did not take long to observe that the complaint department was from the students who NEVER even attempted the assignments I gave them. ...(and of course, they complained to their parents who then complained to me and the principal.) Here is the great news.I now have the data to prove that all the students who actively participated and DID the assignments I gave them on Khan Academy had great gains even though they only had 7 weeks to get ready for their test. I thank you and am currently in the process of changing the mind of the principal with my data.
So inspirational, it just shows how a change starts from within, in yourself, good idea and good intention and it can change lives of so many people. Amazing...
Sal Khan you are one of the best people I have ever seen. Your vides have been making easeir of millions of peoples` life. Thank you for all you are doing, we really appriciate that
Finally I got to see the face behind the voice! Sal, I learned a lot from you. You're good man! You are one of the people who are welcome to my house any time of the day!
This dude is one of the greatest champions of civilisation. Along with Socrates inventing reason, Martin Luther ending theocratic dictatorship in Europe and Harry Truman starting the 80 year long Pax Americana.
I am so glad that the Khan Academy includes Humanities in its subject offerings and I hope someday to be a contributor specific to Music Education in that area. As a music specialist/classroom teacher, one point made at 24:05-24:15 in your talk addresses the flaws in the issue of time constraints & educational expectations for general ed/classroom teachers. But what worse is taking that situation and then divide that time even farther down for the Art, Music, Phys. Ed. and Compurter teaching specialists who have 1/5 the amount of time to teach their subject to ALL of the students in their Elementary-Middle School buildings! - - - - - - - - - - - That needs to "marinate" for jut a minute. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - No, really, go back and read the second paragraph again. I'll wait - - - - - - "Music" is a complex, varied and multitudinous subject (it's actually a way of life, but I'll just address it as a "subject" for now) and in our current educational format - for public school, anyway, it's difficult to give music its just do when you only have 50 minutes, 1 time per week to engage ALL 352 of the children in your school. The Elementary level General Ed. teachers have their 30 students in their individual classrooms whom they see 5 days per week. The music teacher will see those same 30 students but only on 1 of those 5 days which then translates to only seeing those children for 8 or 9 times by the end of the quarter (God help you if you have a snow-day, holiday or a fire drill on the day you see this class!). I'm stating this to simply point up how amazing the "Flipped Class" format of education is the current key to remedy the issue of the inordinant amount of time afforded to the Humanities. Such areas of study are honestly, the subjects that should be the steering wheel used to turn our US society away from its current trajectory/cycle of violence and lack of civility. Without the advancement of communications technology through TH-cam, Skype, audio/video conferencing, social media and the accessibility of the Internet itself, there would be only a bleak future ahead for PUBLIC school education!
I sometimes tutor high school students in math... one student was working through SAT II math and was scoring really poorly (like 500-600), but we worked through Khan Academy together and she ended up with a 750!!
That voice and the intuitions are his biggest assets. The intuition of treating pullies/wedges as machines and looking at torque/moment from a point of view mechanical advantage made classical mechanics so clear to me! And there are way too many examples, this one is not separately special. Not everyone has a charm to educate and it shows in videos without him. He got me interested in Biology, something I neglected as a kid but beginning to see the big picture because of him.
Damn I actually broke into tears hearing the story of how he got that $100,000 donation. Such generosity to support such a noble human being, truly heartwarming.
I'm 69 and continue to learn. The Academy is wonderful. But, I wonder, how does Sal learn, and then explain complex issues so simply? And, what's with the "y'all" ? :-)
Mild Soul Sorry, did not mean to offend. I did not detect a Southern accent. But, I still think it sweet to hear the Y'all from an ex hedge fund (?) Guy. :-)
he has 3 degrees from MIT and Harvard in Electrical and Business. He is highly educated. So I am sure all that engineering background helps him in learning more about science.
He should receive the Nobel Peace Prize
According to Nobel's will, the Peace Prize shall be awarded to the person who
“...shall have done the most or the best work for fraternity between nations, for the abolition or reduction of standing armies and for the holding and promotion of peace congresses."

"Music" is a complex, varied and multitudinous subject (it's actually a way of life, but I'll just address it as a "subject" for now) and in our current educational format - for public school, anyway, it's difficult to give music its just do when you only have 50 minutes, 1 time per week to engage ALL 352 of the children in your school. The Elementary level General Ed. teachers have their 30 students in their individual classrooms whom they see 5 days per week. The music teacher will see those same 30 students but only on 1 of those 5 days which then translates to only seeing those children for 8 or 9 times by the end of the quarter (God help you if you have a snow-day, holiday or a fire drill on the day you see this class!).

I'm 69 and continue to learn. The Academy is wonderful. But, I wonder, how does Sal learn, and then explain complex issues so simply? And, what's with the "y'all" ? :-)
Was born and raised in Louisiana
Mild Soul Sorry, did not mean to offend. I did not detect a Southern accent. But, I still think it sweet to hear the Y'all from an ex hedge fund (?) Guy. :-)
Y'all is generally an acceptable gender neutral term which is more politically correct than calling a group of people "you guys".
I was born and raised in Chicago. I say "you guys" all the time. :-) Never the less, Thank you Sal and all "you guys" --- "Y'all" for educating us.
he has 3 degrees from MIT and Harvard in Electrical and Business. He is highly educated. So I am sure all that engineering background helps him in learning more about science.
That Euler's identity as the last clip for the montage, just works a charm!
