What is 0 to the power of 0?

These students don’t realize how lucky they are to have such an effective and passionate teacher. Really makes all the difference in the world to keep the students engaged whilst educating them.

"0 to the power of are you paying attention?" mate that was brilliant

"Now that's a good question and I don't have an answer to that.... So maybe we could find out...." We need MORE teachers willing to say this.

I really like his teaching style. He's very engaging and honest enough to say "I don't know, but I can find out." My understanding of maths is too basic to really appreciate the lesson though.

I love how he literally stopped his whole class for the sake of the one kid who had stopped paying attention, and the kid who told him to get off his phone sounded legitimately angry. I feel like this guy has succeeded as a teacher because of the fact that he has his students so engaged and he cares enough about the individual to stop the class to allow them to regain their focus. These are the teachers we need more of. Its always refreshing to see a teacher who genuinely cares and also tries to make learning fun, while at the same time trying to make the content he gives to his students more easily understood. He simplifies things as much as possible in order to benefit everyone in his class, and I think that deserves tons of respect.

13:56 For anyone wondering why this number starts increasing again specifically between .4 and .3, it's because the minimum value of x^x (x to the x) happens at x = 1/e, aka. the inverse of Euler's number, aka. ~.36788, which, as you would notice, is between .4 and .3. You're welcome.

If Netflix make a show with this guy explaining all of the Math , i would sit there and binge it all. 😆😆😆😆

As a Maths teacher as well, I must confess that this guy is really good. Choosing the right words and keeping the students engaged.

If everybody had such great teachers the world would be different...

i would just like to say i’ve met him and he’s the only teacher ever that made me excited for math

I LOVE this man. I was very lucky to have had an amazing teacher like him for trigonometry with just as much energy and passion, and he made me love math. I wish i was one of his students!

This is a rare type of teacher wherein the students can actually learn from

I like how he has this bulletproof velcro case for his calculator and then just throws it on the desk

Me: is about to sleep Me: sees this in my recommended Me: sleep is for the weak, I NEED ANSWERS

Wow, I wish I had you as a teacher in my Math Class when I was young. Thank you Eddie for sharing this. I'm 66 now and still learning thanks to guys like you.

I’m 40 years now. And never thought I would spend 14 minutes on a math video. This guy is such a great teacher. Lucky who have a teacher like this.

Teachers that love their jobs are so much better... This guy is awesome.

Me: finally it’s Saturday Also me: watches math videos

I’m not saying anything you don’t already know, but this method of teaching is superb. Anyone can tell students that zero raised to the power of zero is equal to one. But you let the students discover it. They will never forget. When I was in grade school many(oh so many) years ago, my teacher told us to go home and measure the circumference of tin cans and the diameter and bring the results back to class. None of us knew why and none of us understood the meaning of Pi. We did the next day! Thanks so much for these lessons you post.

I am over 50 and I do teach at Univ at times BUT I wish I had a teacher like him in school/univ. I watched the entire video just out of curiosity and I was amazed by the journey of learning (so to speak) he took me on. Best part was in the end when a student asks a questions and he replies that he didn't know. I am from India and the education culture largely (changing though nowadays) is not to question the teacher. This emanates from the culture of respect to elders and the highest is accorded to a teacher who is supposed to be wisest of all. But this approach is misplaced when it comes to knowledge sharing.
