She’s my teacher now and she’s even better in person I love her

[@Meku-tg6sx]

Very naturally gifted person to teaching, really simple, funny and adorable!

[@Hotrodchef89]

I love that she can teach to anyone. To me that makes a great teacher because it is great that you are a master in your field but can you teach it to others is the biggest test.

[@amches]

She is wonderful, intelligent, smart, funny, and is the type of people that change the world; many thanks for this! Dr. Tatiana!

[@SrHirokumata]

teachers like this need a raise... and everything we can do to help them

[@Its_the_Whole_Everything]

she has such great enthusiasm - who wouldn't want to learn with her around.

[@godyditan7778]

I'm a big fan of hers. Also teaching physics and she is now my inspiration... 🥰🥰🥰

[@danhnguyen-mm2ue]

She is a gift to the education world

[@soniaalvarado5372]

I wish that we’d all had science teachers like her. If so, we’d have a lot more scientists! Engineers! Of all types!

[@pt-7890]

I'm sorry but I disagree with you. That style of teaching won't work. May be 1 or 2 days it's fine but if you go on for a year the students will slowly lose concentration and make fun of her and they couldn't care less about the Subject .

[@TheWolfman112]

@@pt-7890 I can only speak for myself, but if I had a teacher with that much enthusiasm for what they were teaching, I would've learned much easier. All of the teachers I had growing up were very apathetic. Almost like they were just there to throw information at you and collect a paycheck.

[@devd_rx]

@@TheWolfman112 you are clearly not learning anything here, are you?

[@samantadoot2921]

Dr tatiana...you must get a nobel.....my prayers and good wishes are always with you

[@danspianotube]

And a TV show

[@hayjust1]

I'm 52 and I LOVE this fun, excited scientist! She's informative, I've learned so much from her videos! Her energy is infectious. Love her!! She's the next Bill Nye. :)

[@dookeland8]

She’s a real scientist though, not an actor

[@exsiyabanele]

WOW! She has this burning passion for Physics. Talking about purpose in life. I love her. 😍

[@PlasmaCoolantLeak]

A&M is so lucky to have her as a professor.

[@TerraWolffe]

I was already sold but her little "it still stays there" made me so happy

[@НиколайЯшин-х9ц]

Жаль, что мы в России не смогли создать привлекательные условия для такого потрясающего преподавателя. Потрясающие лекции. Good luck with your business!

[@karolinaleleniewski4334]

nate is so excited
big smile the whole time

[@NicolasOliva17]

Protect this woman at all costs

[@teresalegler2777]

Fantastic demonstration!

[@lynmariegm]

[@nephtys369]

It takes true mastery to explain high concepts simply.

[@JennyVazquez-q2m]

I need Bill Nye and her to do an experiment together

[@obajbola9679]

Well ma'am you got me since last week, waiting on your videos everyday...lol

[@hattibailey7479]

Whe🎉n I saw these make me want to go back to school I used to love science and, math and, social and, Reading

[@partizanSquad]

We're so lucky to have her here. Especially in a time when education is under attack and people banning books.

[@StrongVidhi]

Love this teacher

[@jessiamandy3580]

I love her smile

[@marvinmartin4692]

I would love to see her and DrShaktahari from Madison Wis get together in a performance!

[@slimrose5820]

I love this lady ❤

[@lynzcuesta]

is that the principle of the lottery?

[@traditionalistruss]

Вот такие учителя нужны России! Татьяна Ерухимова ❤

[@zingershooher]

Пока в школах приветствуются попы и уголовники, только вернувшиеся с фронта, вряд ли учителя, у которых есть выбор, захотят быть частью этого.

[@euni99]

I lover her she is amazing!!!

[@Adinga123]

Salute Dr.Tatiana

[@williamokuda8882]

US needs more intelligence. Thanks

[@rosegeaber7533]

Wow

I thought the President and Congress were trying to ban TikTok.

[@GorillaWithAPhone]

They tried. But congress clearly has no knowledge of the internet.

If Borat was a woman

[@olehshablykin2668]

there is not enough of a fun and educational experiment to restore the territorial integrity of Ukraine

[@Just_Sara]

I think maybe the fact that she's been in the US for a quite a while now could indicate her feelings on her mother country. Of course, you never know, but I assume there's a reason she's not in Russia anymore. I'd say it's more fair to give her a real chance than assume allegiance with the country she voluntarily left years ago. I hope you have a nice day!

[@yukiyogurtmale4559]

Vsem poxui na nee

[@yukiyogurtmale4559]

​@@Just_SaraI live in Russia and I can say that our government treats teachers poorly, for example, it gives them very small salaries. That's why charismatic teachers like Tatyana leave here for countries where their work will be respected

Science can be measured magic can’t be measured..that’s why it’s magic.
