I've learn more from you than through all of the text books i've read and all of the lectures i've attended. These videos and the website help me so much to continue enjoy the process of learning. Schools are so F-ed up because they make kids hate school, and hate learning. Learning should be a process enjoyed by everyone, and you are doing so much to help keep that alive!

Why am I paying tuition when when I am learning much more from these videos than my professor?

I still think you're Charlie the Unicorn...

This is sucha a great video that brings a clear concept about Redox happening in respiration. i learnt in 20 minutes more than what i learnt reading books for 2 hours. superb video. Thank you for posting.....please keep posting more videos .

This topic gave me some headaches at first, but now i'm beginning to understand it. Thank you, these videos are gold.

5:55 I am confused, and correct me if I'm wrong, but does that carbon (image from Wikipedia) need to have an H attached to it? Because the two oxygens require a double bond, that would use up all of carbon's four possible bonds...attaching a hydrogen would give it 5 bonds (impossible)..?

I learned so much more from this, rather than my teacher teaching me.

@Hirgum lol woooow! nitpick much? i'd understand if his calculations were completely incorrect, but you're seriously going to harp over a term? and actually, a lot of professors use the term "hog" in introductory courses because they just want the students to learn basic, and core concepts. the actual quantitative net charges of molecular bonds is covered in advanced biochemistry courses, not intro. using the word "hog" just helps students visualize the concept of electronegativity.

your videos are very helpful, for not only are you giving your viewers a lecture but are also giving visuals. Unlike in class lectures, we are able to go back or pause the video if we did not understand something or missed what you said. I hope you will continue doing this.
