Notes:
Why do I want to learn Chinese?
Well its a story with some history that developed over two years, so I can't really explain it here. But, Chinese is not the only language I plan to learn... and
The very short version of the story is I want to know/understand the culture, the people, the food, and be able to speak with them about these things in their language. I will probably visit the country one day as well, but that is not really the end goal. The end goal is understanding and creating friends from another place. Interestingly, the US state department ranked Chinese as one of the hardest languages for English speakers to learn. I didn't know that when I picked it... but it is consistent with what I said in the video, so I find that amusing. LOL

"Develop the skill, don't be an expert" This one hit home for me. I tend to get wrapped up in the idea that i HAVE to be an expert at anything that i do, and this often leads to starting line anxiety.
Be very willing to think outside the box, don’t be constrained by the manufacturer laws(instructions) only the laws of physics, and failure is not a set back, it’s says that you haven’t perfected your process, or you tried to violate unforgivable laws, physics! The art of learning is defining the difference.
'Analysis paralysis' - yup, guilty!
same here guys ! JER keeps my motivated though. big thanks !
So after being a mechanic for 18 years I made a huge decision to go to college. At 37 I started college. My end goal is mechanical engineering. What you said about asking others how they do something is spot on, they will normally show you how they do it. Over the summer I built a cnc pen plotter with my son. I plan on building a cnc router soon, much bigger than the plotter. Your videos are great, keep them coming.
I worked with a mechanical engineer who started out as a saab mechanic for 15 years. H emade an excellent M.E. good luck
As an engineer who only dabbled in machining and fabrication: if you can get the degree, your experience as a mechanic will make you exceptionally effective.
Awesome story
I completely understand what you're talking about.
When I started learning 3d animation I was learning at home.
I struggled trying to learn.
by the end of a year I had watched around 1,000 tutorials for the program.
I didn't start to see any progress until about 3 years later.
After 13 years I'm a professional CG artist now.
I can 3d model, texture, sculpt, composite, VFX, animate, make molds, 3d print, create inventions from my own mind and more.
Now trying to learn C+ - C++ for creating machines that haven't been made yet for a company I work for. 😅
I was looking at my job and I was thinking to myself " what can I do to make my job a little more easy.
So I designed a machine that can do 3/4 of the job at 3x the speed and still keep the job of two people who work in the area.
Then a tool I use every day had a part that fell off and I didn't like how it was fixed so I took a caliper and measured the dimensions then went home and made an attachment for the tool then 3d printed it. It's been going for about 5-6 months without a problem and it's way better than the part that was on it and the rivet trigger is almost a hair trigger now so I can rivet faster. 😅
And right now I'm working on an old machine that cuts wire I've been working on for almost a year to two years and researched how to make it work then model in 3d space.
It's a working prototype that I'm getting ready to build sometime. 😋
This is the hard part when your doing all the modeling in 3d, coding, designing and building yourself, but you get a sense of accomplishment.😅
Sorry for writing for so long it's a bad habit. 😅
For those who would like to come back to a specific point in the video:
1. You must be motivated. - 1:03
2. Knowledge is not skill. - 1:42
3. You only need a basic knowledge to get started. - 3:14
4. Ignore the “nice to know” stuff and focus on application stuff. - 3:48

10. Managing fears that stop you from trying. - 6:32
11. You will suck at this for a while. - 7:12
12. Failures create powerful learning moments. - 8:11
13. Find the time to practice and make it routine - 8:39
14. Avoid plans that claim results in “just 5 minutes a day”. - 9:36
15. Find the shortest path to “hands on”. - 10:43
16. You choose the level of difficulty. - 11:46
17. Pick a project closely related to why you want the skill. - 12:22

Thanks
Amazing comment! Should be pinned. Cheers for working so hard right after the video is out. That's the spirit.
@@AnibalHdezValle i agree!
Wow you put some effort in 👍
always i scroll down after completing video to get golden gift from peoples like you. thanks👋👋
As a musician I came into college on a shaky foundation. My sight reading was awful, and a professor hammered it into my head that I should practice something as slowly as it can be correctly done, and that I needed to swallow my pride and take my time. I now apply that as a machinist.
To increase the areas in which I can define as being learned, I will often apply the "See, do, teach" method, among other techniques. When learning something new, see someone do it, then do it yourself, and finally teach another what you've learned. The third part, teaching someone, dutifully confirms what you know; as you relay information to another, you're forced to take comprehensive inventory. This will singe the newly acquired skill into your arsenal. This technique works surprisingly well. Enjoy!
Just got to make sure you’re not teaching wrong information or skills. What I mean is this: John is a training coach at the local factory. You show up for work and while trying with John he continuously neglects to use proper lock out/tag out procedure because “it’s more efficient” and allows him to work faster. Now you have that same outlook. A year later someone you train dies because a machine was accidentally started because it wasn’t locked and tagged. Granted, this scenario is a bit extreme, but it happens a lot because someone inadequate is teaching bad information and skills.
Jeremy, this isn't related so much to how I learned skills fast, but like your example of asking the Electrician to explain the electrical cabinet to you is an absolutely _great_ way to succeed (in almost anything, I think).
As a (now retired) Mechanical Engineer working at an Aerospace facility (up to ~5,000 employees at times over the years), I made a good reputation as a young Engineer by actually _listening_ to the Artisans & Technicians because many of them were often the true Subject Matter Experts (SMEs) on whatever they did. I didn't "look down" on them because they might have had less education and no college degree -- I treated them with the Golden Rule and treated them like I wanted to be treated. I also did _not_ make the mistake of "overdressing" which made some Artisans/Technicians feel "put down" by the "snobs" (
So, so much wisdom here.
With an open mind, checked ego and the willingness to listen a CEO can gain knowledge from their janitor.
One thing I'd add to that list is commitment. Finding the motivation to start can be difficult, but having the commitment to continue, especially when the results aren't immediately forthcoming, can make all the difference.
I’ve been learning primitive skills. Starting fire with sticks, shelter building, wild foods etc. As soon as I start a new topic I try learning the topic along side my 4 and 7 years olds. As they ask their questions I try! to answer them. Thank you for all the great content.
You are awesome Brother. Love watching your vids. I started collecting old and broken electronics and saving all the good parts. I even ordered me a nice Hakko soldering iron station so I can teach myself how to repair and build electrical equipment. I owe every bit of it to you. You have inspired me to do this I don’t think I have ever been this inspired to learn something. Thank you for that. I’d love to be able to talk to you and learn a few more things. You have a good way of explaining and teaching. Thank you
One of my biggest frustrations as a senior electrical engineer has always been needing to learn a small portion of an overall larger subject, and getting information overload...needing to find a resource on that small topic, but having to wade through a mountain of info before finally finding what I need. It takes time, and quite often there is quite a lot of wasted time. This is where finding a mentor is helpful, who has a lot of experience with that topic.
I've been learning a lot of new skills. You may never read this since it's an older video but I admire how you managed to effectively learn so many things and apply them even if you don't understand every crevice of a subject. I just finished a coding bootcamp and recently discovered my passion is to build and program robots. One day I want to build a mech suit. You're an inspiration sir.
All people need this lesson. Probably best before schooling
Back in 2007 my family found the MIT lectures that they posted for free. One of the topics was quantum physics, and so for 8th grade homeschooling science I learned college level quantum physics to a level that I can discuss it intelligently.
7:25. THIS!!! Be humble and accept the SUCK! It's part of the journey of learning. If you are tenacious, you will go from suck to not suck.
I like how you said, "Learn the skill, don't be an expert." It is similar, more simply put, to what I tell a new employee. I tell them, "Slow down, take your time, focus on learning this skill, and not being perfect or fast. Speed and perfection only come with experience and time."
Thank you, Jeremy. These are life lessons that can be learned... and forgotten. Especially as we get older. I've found that the older I get, the easier it is to slip into a comfortable rut and stop learning.
Thanks for the video, sir!
I have so many skills I'm working on right now that I won't bore you with the long list but instead focus on the skill (or rather project) that brought me to your video. I'm planning on converting a small gas outboard motor to an electric one for my boat and while I have a basic knowledge and application of setting up a simple electrical system, this one seems to be more involved than my previous electrical projects. I would also like to build my skill with electrical systems and using more complex electrical components for future advanced projects. Your electrical videos are what brought me to your channel. Thanks again for posting such informative and helpful vids!
"Remember, your goal is not to have mastery over this. You just wanna shine enough light on the path ahead of you, so that you can keep walking forward." 19:08
I think am going to be using this quote a lot. Greatly appreciated!
Best channel on RUclips. Seriously.
This is the best subject that never seems to be taught anywhere. How to learn and grow your skill set and knowledge base outside of a formal set curriculum. Learning how to successfully create your own curriculum to learn what you are seeking is the most powerful skillset you can develop. The point at which knowledge and skill combine is where all the magic happens. You are a true teacher in every sense of the word. Thank you.
I constantly add to my role model list, but at age 40, I have narrowed down my role models. Johnny Kim (former Navy Seal, currently with NASA) and you. Both of you possess the drive to overcome obstacles, and find ways to impact others. Thank you. These two characteristoscs are 2 of the many that I try to teach my son (he's 3.)
Also, I hope one day I am as brilliant or have an much motivation as you. You have renewed my energy in learning
I am learning CAD, 3D printing and using my new plasma table to create some products to maybe sell. Even if I never make a penny doing it I'm enjoying the learning and product refinement process. RUclips has been a huge resource by taking tips from multiple content creators.
BTW, I am a full-time Captain at a medium-sized Fire Department, deliver portable buildings part-time, finishing up my bachelor's degree in business, currently taking a Hazardous Materials Technician course and a married father of two. If I can find time anyone can.
Kudos for protecting family time!
When I listen to you I think of this quote. "The fool doth think he is wise, but the wise man knows himself to be a fool". You are a wise man.
I found it really valuable to write down your mistakes, what could have gone wrong or what you want to do better next time as soon as possible. What was the cause and how do you want to do it better. Also note how you did something so you dont have to figure it out again. Write little „manuals“ for the tasks.
Also learn that its ok to suck at something, espacially something you want to be good at. Almost everyone does at the start.
Dont be afraid to ask for help, advice, whatever. Its incredible how many people will help out even total strangers they never met. Worst case they say something mean, but that doesnt matter. Best case you get some really good advice.
This is amazing! Me and my husband are always wanting to learn new skills. I really appreciate you making this video
When we are trying to acquire a new skill diligently, most people will want to cheer you on and will often offer free support of some type. Experts are people that tryed and failed more and faster than others in most cases. That's how they became so good.
Jeremy, I 'began ' learning Chinese in the summer of 1965, and I still study it today. I suppose I'm fairly fluent (however, I can still get my clock cleaned from time to time!) One piece of advice for you - do all you can to learn how the Chinese folks think. Much of the language proficiency is based on that sort of knowledge. {For instance, you probably carry a handkerchief around occasionally. A Chinese would never dream of carrying around a rag full of snot in his pocket. Another example - the Chines people don't use the expression "I don't think . . ." Their logic tells them that if a person doesn't think, then he has no thought to convey to anyone} Good luck, my friend!
I learned Search Engine Optimization (SEO) and building websites, 10 years ago. Then started a business doing it for others. Now I own a different business that is successful because of that and I keep learning to keep moving my business ahead. Thank you!!!
I started making electric guitars a few years ago and quickly found out that certain components like pickups, especially good ones, were very expensive. So I branched out and started studying how they were made, and what tools and skills I needed to make them myself. Magnets, bobbins, copper wire and something to wind the wire on the bobbin.
You're company name should be Shankar!
Young man I have so much respect for you.
Never stop.
I wish i'd heard this a long time ago. I bought a table saw a while ago and spent a long time going to extremes learning about safety. This is a first item on my list when doing something with maschines for the first time. Thanks to lots of serious channels i didn't have to learn the hard way and i feel more comfortable using new maschines.
So much wisdom in this talk. Knowledge is not skill and we don't need perfect knowledge to start developing skills. Just get going! Love all this guy's videos.
I’ll add, if you start into something stay with the methods of the field when you begin. My younger brother was taking first semester Chemistry, he came up with his own way to solve the beginning problems, but he didn’t learn the method they were trying to teach him. And, he struggled in the middle of the class until he went back and learned the method they were trusting to teach him at the beginning of the class.
That was a great class. I am currently trying to learn Spanish. I am 64 years old and I’ve been using the program for 230 days consistently but I am not speaking to anyone. I need to deep dive and get someone to speak to her I have subscribe to your channel. Keep up the good work.
This is some of the best life information I’ve see and a very long time. Simple & easy for anyone of any age to understand. You have do a great service to anyone who watches this video. My father always told me “the only people who don’t make mistakes are people who don’t do anything” & “ you learn most from your mistakes & failures” I’m proud to say I’ve made many mistakes. Thank you for this video Jeremy.
when learning I use reference and association a lot. When troubleshooting I simplify and bypass.
you are a great role model for your kids and probably many others. I know i have great respect for your accomplishments, and will have to go through this video a few more times to really get all of it. from a 73 year old retired guy. thanks.
I just want to commend you on distilling the keys to success into a video that every human in the world needs to watch!
The part you mentioning study French really hits me in my heart! It reminded me so much about me learning English and all the other things. Thank you for your kindly sharing and advices on learning skills and more importantly about life. This is my first RUclips comment and it’s for you! Keep up! You are a really inspiring!❤
I've been using Duolingo to learn Chinese and Japanese. It's not as fun as learning in person with an actual class, but it's awesome to see a Chinese or Japanese character and know not only what it means, but how to pronounce it as well.
Jeremy, you are amazing teacher.things you say in this video, took meb 7 years of practicing diy skills to understand,i wish i see this clip at my first days,then its dont cost me that long,back then for first year i stock in ocean of knowledge and not drop of skills , more i learn more i depressed,until i get started by drawing the project and doing they part by part until the end,first was woodworking then i force to learn and practice electronic,metalogy,lathe working,welding technics,...i learn English language in this way.
I love your works, mostly of your way for teaching things,frankly you are best in diy word.i personally learnings some key things that wasn't in any book or tutorial.
thank you and god bless you ❤️
The number one snippet of wisdom to take from this is 'never fear failure'. You learn vastly more from failure than any success.
Thank you.
I am trying to learn how to backup a trailer. I loved the line that you have to accept the fact that you are going to suck at it. I suck at it and the thing that I am doing to get better at it is practicing my four letter words while attempting to back up a trailer.
Absolutely my favorite channel out of ALL the many youtube channels I watch. Love this guy!
This is what I think is the biggest thing a maker-space should provide.
Learning!
This is a super important video for all levels. As a coder, I like the points you made, one thing I would recommend is not learning about specific syntax, that can be looked up. The important part in my opinion is understanding the basics of program flow, data structures, etc. If you know how a loop works, how variables and inheritance works, how a stack(function/subroutine calls) works you will have a foundation or at least level ground for a foundation to be built on. Skill isn't knowledge but rather the ability to know what to learn to accomplish your goal. Anyways, that's what I think...
After programming for 50 years I agree with you. The important part is the algorithms, not the language. The language is easy to research as you need it. How to do something can be hard.
Agree with Pat - My HS computer teacher in the 80s said "Once you understand the computer programing logic, the language is trivial." And that has been true, however the logic has changed at times such as moving from procedural to object oriented, etc
I like that idea - skill isn’t knowledge, but rather knowing how to accomplish your goal.
I somewhat disagree. AFAIK, the algorithms you learn in computer science school are good for exercising your brain and getting into the mindset of how to solve problems, similar to math problems, but the actual algorithms taught end up being implemented in the language and you just call a function to use them. ie: searching and sorting. I've been coding for 13 years and learning new frameworks or languages is not trivial. If it were, they wouldn't be paying the big bucks for senior developer positions in the latest technologies.
@@paladinsorcerer67 that is fair, but maybe it is something in between. Maybe a beginner doesn't need to know all the ways to search a binary tree but does need to know how to use a loop and an if. Maybe a beginner doesn't need to understand the whole framework, just the parts they plan to use. A beginner doesn't need to code efficiently but need to revisit and learn what they could improve. Do you think this is more close to what it is?
Sir, you are awesome. Us poor folks up in these Appalachian mountains(lol) love to tinker and you are an inspiration. Thank you
Don't forget to leave your learning tips below if you have them! Also I am honored to have Xometry as a sponsor. I have been using their service for about three years now.

I'm studying Electronics on my own and came across your excellent video on DC motors for beginners. I was so impressed by your knowledge and ability to teach that I just subscribed. Thank you for sharing your time and knowledge with us. Can't wait to see your other videos.
I found value at a very young age in taking something that worked, breaking it, observing and identifying what it was supposed to do, and repairing the “damage” to see it working again. My parents were supportive when on any given Christmas morning, I might have been gifted a new toy that by that afternoon I had completely destroyed. I literally would grab a hammer and start bashing on it to open it up. I was motivated by my curiosity to see what was inside and to see how it did what it did. It was awesome!
While other parents might have “discouraged” this behavior, I was fortunate that mine didn’t, because the day came when I learned what a screw was, that there was a thing called a screwdriver, and that I could open up ANYTHING and still see it working! That was probably the most epic day of my childhood, if not my life.
Breaking what works is a skill. It feeds my curiosity and learning, even to this day. Dare I say, it has opened up many opportunities for growth throughout my life and career.
Thank you my friend. What you share are the best parts of who I aspire to be.
I’m currently a millwright (industrial mechanic). I am currently actively teaching myself PLC and welding whenever I can. I’ve learned to lean on Reddit forums. I’ve been reading free source information about plc and studying the basics until I can get my laptop up and running and run simulations. Programming pays extremely well and I just have an interest in honestly speaking, just about everything. I love coming to your channel and taking notes on your work. I can’t wait to have a dedicated space for my tinkering.
That last tip of teaching someone, especially young children is part of the Feynman way of learning. His philosophy was if you can explain an idea/concept to a toddler then you understand and know the concept.
Excellent video!
The tip in asking the expert is amazing. There is such a fear in asking an expert. Fear of looking dumb, fear of being snubbed. I have found that most people want to help. Especially subject matter experts. I know there are a few arrogant jerks out there. If you get that one, just move on.
Please, please keep sharing HOW you do the things you do, including the mistakes. This is what makes your channel so accessible.
I'm working to learn Quickbooks right now, so that I implement it for my church. At the moment, I'm reading a book as a guide, while working in the program.
Thanks for this content! I tend to talk myself out of something if I'm not going to be good at it right away. Clearly a pride issue to deal with.
One of the things I've enjoyed doing in order to learn new skills is watching you. Thanks for all the fantastic content over the years!
I think it's important to remember that the process is the important part of any project, and that includes the failures. As a maker, I work on things because I want to experience the process. Yes, it's nice to produce something that is usable and that I am proud of. But, for me, the experience, knowledge, and skill gained along the way are always as much or more valuable as the finished product.
My wife is tired of me telling her how everything works. But seriously, this is a great video and should be shown to every teenager, every year..
Simple in execution, yet this is one of the best videos I've ever seen on all of RUclips. Why? Because I personally feel every one of these steps (and almost in the same order given) are actually guidlines to live the life you've always dreamed (within reason). There's a lot of psychology, physiology, and cognitive research backing the efficacy of the things he is mentioning. Simply excellent! 👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿
I love your positivity. I've been missing your channel for a while. I need to start watching it again. Glad this came along my feed.
You’re awesome!! And so inspiring! Thanks for sharing all your knowledge with us! Just wanted to stop by and let you know I appreciate you! You helped me learn to help fix my treadmill motor! As a single female, we can get taken advantage of by repair men -so now I can fix it all myself! Or at least know what can be wrong with it and not get taken advantage of! You rock!
About deepening skills: Using youtube's (or an offline player) speedup functions. A few years ago, I had to get up to speed in machine learning/deep learning. Now my problem was that I was not a total beginner, I was actually pretty good in it, but my knowledge was obsolete in many angles of that fast moving field. Problem is, I lacked some of the recent beginner knowledge but knew 90% of it. So I just found good online classes, watched then at x2 or x1.75 speed (I could barely understand the words) and would slow it down only when it got to things I did not already know. Not a "learn a new skill in 5 minutes" but compressing a 10 hours curriculum in 5 is still a nice time saver!
I used to work as a technical teacher in a lighting and filming studio - so I often had to teach students who weren't familiar with the tech, the terms, or the workflows. When I had a first lesson with a group, the best way I found to overcome the initial inertia was to teach the principle that 'If a thing is worth doing well, then it's worth doing badly.' To this end I'd spend a few minutes describing the very basics of how to set up a shoot and then without risking harm to the equipment or the students I'd invite them to go ahead and do it all as wrong as they could.
This way instead of worrying about failure being a bad thing, it actually became the initial desired goal, which meant that people got involved and collaborating with each other very quickly. Usually within a very short period of time the students would just start to click as to the things they could do to improve the shoot, and because they were already collaborating and moving things around the lesson would naturally morph into how to do it right. Everybody has fear of failure when they first start doing things, but if they can overcome the inertia and just start doing the thing, even if they're doing it badly, then it is so much easier to learn and practice.
Jeremy, is your family learning Mandarin Chinese with you? Learning another language is so beneficial for children! You are an amazing teacher. Thank you!
We were born to discover and explore!you are very good teacher, Jeremy!
Great outlook, and great advice. "Knowledge is not Skill" needs to be on a T-shirt or a coffee mug!
I've only watched about 8 minutes of this video and it is one of the best advice videos out there. I enjoy watching your videos when I have time.
thenks for all , you and patreon ' s
ps. From croatia with love
11:41 - 11:44 "I'm still just barely capable"? Now that's a lie 😂. You sir are beyond just barely capable. You are a straight up badass...respectfully speaking. Thanks for all the knowledge and effort you put into sharing your knowledge. It is truly and humbly appreciated.
I believe you are blessed, brother. I have been trying to construct a formula for the same topic but despite all the detailed guideline, there is one aspect that cannot be manipulated: the intrinsic drive. Most people have it. Some people have more some people have less and then there are those who are empty inside. I used to be the one who had so much of it that I became obsessed with progress but somehow, it disappeared out of no significant reason. Now I'm waiting for it to come back. If it does come back, I will then have a better appreciation of that 'drive' and I believe it is truly a blessing not everyone possess.
I have added this to my daily motivation for better understanding and daily improvements of anything. Wow. From small shed to big shed. You are a dose of fresh air. Inspiring 😊
Thank you for the wonderful variety of skills that you share! I think I've just learned how to be a better learner!
Man, you’re channel has helped me out so much! Thank you!
Peace and love, Thank you for your time and your Inspiration. I am so appreciative that I have learned of Your channel and I plan on utilizing your teaching example for a way that All of OUR children and Village can learn a different way that We can excel together ❤️
Been learning javascript with the coding train. Superb teacher, one of the best. Key thing has been getting involved and making my own version of the stuff he demonstrates as well as applying it to the stuff I actually want to achieve myself.
This really helps because iv been learning about cars for the past 2 years and eventually want to have my own car company so im gonna try and build my own car by the time im 17 im 15/turning 16 thank you so much you're such a big influence.
Spot on Sir! I do very much the same thing as an amateur musician. I have improved my abilities doing the points you state. Yes I made and still make mistakes but I am motivated to be as good as I can. Had an audience member tell me once that I had improved greatly since I started. We all had a good laugh and I played on! Love the videos…
Jeremy I thank you for this video!
Just found your channel. Love it. Great work.
Epic video! Very nice! Thank you!
So inspiring, thank you!❤
Thank you for the quality content!
Thanks for all the great videos.
Giving myself permission to be terrible was such a game changer! It's like the old parable of the pottery class. Some students made 3 projects, perfectly. Some students made hundreds of projects, badly. At the end of the course, the students who had done more volume were able to quickly make perfect pots on the first try.
Something not mentioned in the video explicitly - clearly state the project's goals, so you can change how the project gets that done. I work in software, so I'm a bit biased, but there's always another way to get the job done. If one tool/approach isn't working for you, sleep on it, watch some youtube videos about something completely unrelated, and you'll often find another way to accomplish the same thing.
Creativity comes after sleep. The brain needs time to let the subconcious chew on problems. If you're stuck, sleep on it for a few days, work on something else. You'll come back with some new test you can run, or a cheaper way to get the work done.
Thanks Jeremy for all of your work! It's really helpful to see someone else who troubleshoots for a living :)
This is what I needed. Thank you Jeremy as always. The road ahead is daunting, and there might be moments that might tell you to turn back or to give up, but that is normal. In fact your suppose to feel that way, the challenge . The difficulty of the task is why your here in the first place. It's suppose to hard, it's suppose to be the gatekeeper, your own trials. If it was easy, then the task wasn't important enough. Until then keep inching at it. My recommendation for advice would be to document everything so you can see what milestones you went over and see how far you are. It's hard to keep track of anything nowadays since there's soooooo much going on.
Great work 🥳🥳🥳 Thank you 💜💜💜
Jeremy I love your content and referenced your videos to a lot of folks. I do this cause you have a natural knack for clear explanation. We need more of people like you as teachers. I think kids and adults would enjoying understanding the knowledge being explained or shown. I am sure your kids are doing well in school.
Jeremy
Whether learning something new or resolving a problem, I will take a moment afterwards to celebrate the accomplishment. Might be just a simple fist pump, but doing so reinforces the successful processes. Always take the time to take pride in what you do.
Awesome! Thanks for sharing.
Thank You Jeremy.
You are a great motivator!!
This, like every video you produce, is so well thought out. I am always amazed with the ease that you can convey your thoughts with the camera! Keep up the great work!
Thanks for sharing the tips!
Excellent video, thank you!
This is a very timely video, thanks. I have just started school for mechanical engineering, and it's a huge transition from my previous career in automotive and metalworking.
A big thing I have learned already is to understand your learning style. You may be visual, aural, more text or more hands on in how you best absorb this information. It's also not the same for other people, so if you are not able to get a hold of a concept from one source, try another. This is where your statement of having multiple teachers really helps. As an example in my own life, looking at diagrams of automatic transmissions it seemed like some sort of black magic going on in there, but when I opened one up myself if could easily understand it.
I'm always looking forward to more of your educational content, thanks.
Man, your freaking awesome. Subbed.
Excellent video! Some information that I really needed to hear. Thank you! As far as a project, I recently restored a 40+ year old Lortone rock tumbler. It involved a complete tear down and motor replacement. A weekend project that left me extremely satisfied.
Great advice. Thank you.
I just bought a Raspberry Pi. No idea where to start and landed on your channel. It's Amazing, congrats!!!
Jeremy, you're a national treasure!
I've been watching your vids for years, loving the information, but this is best I've seen.
From anyone!
