Thank You Khan Academy

 

I am a Canadian ESL English teacher, and I love working with Khan. I’ve been using the grammar course for quite a while now. My grade 6 students have been challenging themselves to reach 100% completion on the grammar course—even though I only ask for 40%.

 

Over the past 3-4 years, more or less 40 students from my classes have reached 100% completion. They are only 11-12 years old and are learning English as a second language. I never thought this would have been possible until one student did it. That first accomplishment was like breaking the 4-minute mile—it opened the door for so many others to believe it was possible too.

 

I’ve been wanting to tell you how much you facilitate my life with Khan. Today, I’m taking the opportunity to let you know how deeply I appreciate the tools you provide. They inspire not only me but also my students to go beyond what they thought they could achieve.

 

Thank you for making a difference in our lives.
