    I'm surprised I've never heard of this site.

    From my understanding, it's basically YouTube with a strong focus put on tutorials and educational videos? I'm at school right now so I can't do too much looking. I'll check it out and let you know what I think when I get home :)

    Thanks for this. It's nice to see an educational movement like this.

    I <3 Khan Academy....I seriously have learned all my math from there, barely any from school. He's extremely helpful. A great person for making the site!

    My Chemistry teacher played this in class since he was such a horrible teacher. Surprisingly, I learn better watching the videos from Khan Academy.

    This website taught me calculus... definitely great. I'm not sure if you're subscribed to them on youtube, but a little while ago, khan received a grant from Bill Gates.

    Agreed. Khan definitely knows what he's talking about. He makes learning fairly easy, and does a better job then most teachers.

    Over a year ago I used his calculus videos to pass calculus lol ^_^ His videos are good but sometimes I think he assumes people know more then they do. He skips a lot of stuff sometimes.

    I love review videos because it helps me with what I've already learned in class.

    I've actually never heard of this site, I usually just go to youtube.

    My math teacher has pretty much given up on teaching us this last semester as he knows he's getting replaced next year, so I've had to watch some of their videos on youtube to know what to do >.> I love their teaching style :D
