    I'm a secondary math teacher. I often teach seventh to ninth graders, and I have a story I tell to all new classes about how I became a math teacher.
    In primary school, I was behind in math. I didn't enjoy it. I didn't like memorizing multiplication tables, etc.
    When I entered seventh grade, I was tested at fifth-grade level. My school didn't have traditional math instruction. It had a "reading lab" model for math, with each lesson as a one-pager with problems on the back of the page, all in a box at the front of the room. Kids took the cardboard lesson next in the curriculum to their seats, read, and worked on the practice. Once they finished, they took their work to the teacher to check. If they passed, then they did the next lesson. Forever. So it was Khan in a pre-computer age.
    I finished fifth grade, then sixth. Then seventh, then eighth. So in one year of seventh grade, I went from being two years behind to being a year ahead. By the end of eighth grade, I was two years ahead.
    Self-paced education lets kids take time when they need to, and move fast when they can. They can go from behind to ahead in a single year if they are given the chance.
    One more thing -- running in formation in the military is always slower than the slowest person. You might think it's as slow as the slowest, but it's even slower than that.

      I’m in 9th and I’m not that great at math but I want to go into science I know that math is a major part of that. Honestly math is extremely interesting to me, but I’ve had a lot of holes in my math education because I was never really taught how to look at the big picture to retain the main ideas. I’m trying to fill in my holes from 9th grade and below this summer as well as get ahead in geometry and possibly even a little bit of algebra 2. It makes me feel so horrible when I realize I’ve forgot simple concepts that I learned so long ago but I’ve realized if I want to be good at it I really have to self study it because in school they tend to leave you behind feeling lost.

So what I did was going to school every day, and then after school I would open Khan academy and start learning online. I learnt so much there, the knowledge I got from there is the basic of my current understanding of science. It helped me SO much.

    Listening to this I realize that I would be amazing at teaching.
    I have ASD and I constantly felt confused about so many things growing up. I remember that feeling of helplessness, exhaustion, and embarrassment very vividly.
    My personal ASD features hyper empathy, and combined with my experiences I can model people’s knowledge and headspace very well.
    On top of that, I make an effort to always assume that nobody knows about something rather than assuming everyone knows about it.
    It feels so alienating to have someone casually talk about stuff that makes no sense to you, I will gladly take the minor annoyance of having something re-explained to you in order to avoid that alienation.

    Amazing conversation. Really interesting to listen to. When I was in Primary School, up to 12 yrs old, there was 12-18 kids. Only 2 teachers. The conversation about learning where its based upon the speed you actually learn really hit home because i distinctly remember going to a new school the year after, and thinking, Ive done all of this math before 1-2 years ago. For me it didnt feel like i learnt at a fast pace, but it was in comparison to others. But it allowed me to just learn with no boundaries. Really hope that the world is slowly moving towards this as I do see this being very positive.

    and regarding the idea of actual communication across the media membrane, editing videos takes away the spontaneity of it.

I vividly remember sitting in the library afterward, frantically searching online for a good explanation of it and other matrix math concepts. I stumbled across khan academy and watched maybe an hour's worth of videos and did some practice on paper until I had a handle on it, and it really saved my skin going forward in that Calc class.

    I think what Sal says about building credibility with a large base of trustworthy content creators rings very true. I remember watching Khan Academy's multivariable calculus unit after I had just come from Grant's essence of linear algebra playlist and to hear him again was a really affirming thing. It was saying that the place I was learning from was high quality (even if the 2008 videos didnt look like it) and worth my time to watch participate and learn
