    This 12 minute video is way easier to understand. Much better than an hour and a half of confusing old concepts online public school says to use.

    I started watching your videos last year in high school and many, these are going to save me. You teach at just the right pace and don't belittle your audience, giving problems that actually make sense regarding how they increase in difficulty? And you don't just assume that because you've explained a rule once it'll be clear when and where it applies, especially in more complex problems. Fantastic content, can't believe this is free.

    Amanda S i usually dont spend time on tv suprisingly. I just have a lot in my schedule that week and i couldnt find any time outside of school until then to study. Also my teacher rarely gives us more than a week to learn a whole lesson before we take the test. And she confuses me when she teaches. Sorry if it just sounded like im lazy but it just seems odd to me that math always came easy to me and when i get into this class when i even study and participate in the class i still get confused and my grades have gone from straight A's to C's and D's.

    I have a question, if there is a problem like this, 6x+y/(7x^-2)^-3, and you were trying to make all of the numbers positive by moving it up, would only the -3 be changed into a positive, or all of them?

    why does switching the numbers in the fraction at 1:02 turn the exponent positive?
