  • there are three types of scince professors in the world.

    The brilliant scientists who don't know jack about teaching but kick ass at reaserch.

    The ones who suck at research but can teach you everything you can possibly need to know.

    And a rare type, like Lewin, who can do both.

  • Thank you for making your lectures public. Prof. Lewin is astounding and should be a national treasure.

  • lool bin ein luder

  • I have only seen two videos of him yet, but I have subscribed right away. And I hope that I will finally stop hating physics, but like, NO love it ;)

    I love the ideas so much, the thinking, the things you can do with it, but our teacher can do nothing than be angry at us, yell at us, and tell us we aren't doing things right and that physics are SO DAMN HARD! D: This makes me so demotivated, while I once used to love physics...! Thank you, Walter Lewin!

  • Is it Possible to Construct a Motor Using Electric Fields and Not Magnetic Fields?

  • I wondered why I could understand his English so well... It was because he is apparantly also Dutch :)
