What’s different about my courses:

When I create content for physics lessons, I think deeply around the areas where students struggle and feel confused. My lessons tackle these parts in depth. Also, I believe visual representation of various ideas makes a lot of impact. The lessons have visuals and animations that are thought through quite deeply

And most importantly, I make myself available personally to answer questions that a student who has enrolled may have

…and this is what my students wrote to me

@borasackesen                       I have a physics exam in two days and your videos are absolutely amazing! I understand all your

videos in one go and they are way more easier to learn than my lectures. Keep up the great work

please, and thank you
