youtube should really promote these type of videos instead of the stupid Gangnam Style

thumbs up for Sal!

[Gary Jackson]

I really like this

[Pac De Roll]

Bless the soul of Sal..i pray his ''possible association'' with google doesn't change his concept of free education for everyone worldwide to a profit oriented thing.the reason i stress on this is because we were watching videos of our choice till google took over youtube with their profit driven desire and started manipulating and telling us which videos to watch, deliberately hiding certain videos from us and promoting others to us.We need more souls like Khan.btw i donated something little.

werd man college is a scam but u do need it i learn online and just ace tests fuckk learning what the teachers teaching

[Danny]

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.
