I first watched this video on July 28, 2022 and solved it for the first time. Now on October 19, 2023, I am sub-25 with Roux and moved on from the beginner method. This simple toy has become my biggest obsession and even got a friend to learn from you and also moved onto Roux.

When ready for another challenge I am now working on a Megaminx tutorial and have plans for: Pyraminx, Skewb, 3x3 Intermediate Method, 2x2 Advanced Ortega, And maybe 4x4 and 5x5. Gan just sent me a Stickerless Magnetic Megaminx amzn.to/30Z4TwX and then I purchased several budget Megaminxs amzn.to/2P8yMZ4 to peel stickers off to display the steps and a few more budget stickerless amzn.to/2J3KQHe because I may do a giveaway. I have gotten a few donations but I purchase most everything seen in my videos so consider using my Amazon affiliate links if planning to make a purchase of any sort. It doesn’t even have to be the product I link as long as the purchaser comes through my link I will get a small percentage of the sale while the buying still pays the same price.

this is super great. the only thing is that I know it's hard for you to go a bit slower with the turns, but I think it would help people fallow you if you don't flick the middle finger so fast it looks like nothing moved it was so fast. just a thought thanks for the vid still trying to break my way of solving the cube. I kind of made my own way and it takes me a long time to do it and yes, this vid helps me do it so much faster thank you for that.
I like his idea of showing us with the stickers removed for each step! I am thinking of purchasing a Lego one in which the colors are removable and mastering each step until the cube has no more blank spots.
Good idea, but don’t be afraid that you won’t get it solved. You will eventually and worst case scenario you can disassemble a regular cube and reassemble correctly. Many people have a fear of messing up or making mistakes but this short 1 minute video will dissuade that thought. Learn How to Fail Properly: ua-cam.com/video/NRWG0MfrAXg/v-deo.html Good luck
Hey! I just had to post here that after a lifetime of wishing I could solve a cube, thanks to your video I am solving now in a minute thirty. I have taught my son how to do it using this method as well and we just love doing cubing together. Thank you so much!

I know im a little late to this video but i just want to say i am SOOO thankful i found it. Your instructions are so clear i have actually managed to complete a cube for the first time in my life after trying for many decades to do so lol. I am now trying to learn to be able to redo the cube without having to use your video while doing so. Still gotta come back here and there but im getting there.
I am revisiting to solve the rubik's cube again because my girl was given a cube for Childrens' day. I went thru many other tutorials and only get ever so confused, then I remembered Kevin's 3 yrs old daughter, I am so thankful to find this youtube again! It's the best ever! This video deserves more views and likes! I still could solve the 1st 2 layers easily and yellow cross, but need to look at the algorithm for small/big fish, then the corner & final 😀 Thank you so much Kevin for making this so easy for us!

Problems with Layer 2? At 11:45 I explain and demonstrate how to locate and insert an Edge into the Right side of Layer 2. If your Edge needs to go to the Left side, Just do the mirror of that from the Left side as seen at 14:58 . Orange touching Orange, Green away from Green (turn top CCW rather than CW) kick the Corner out and chase the Edge, pair up and re-insert. Make sure to look at and understand the concept of connecting Corners and Edges, not just follow notation. When filming I had an even number of solves from both sides (Left & Right) but when editing I accidentally got a disproportionate number of solves from the Right side. Let me know if that helps.
I remember I was here on 2019 to solve a Rubik cube. I figured out how to solve it and my best time is 49 seconds. Now I'm back here again because I forgot how to solve it lol
This is the easiest tutorial than others....the others don't teach algorithms....thanks so much...I solved this in 1 min.....I bought my 3 by 3 yesterday to practice and now I can solve.....tysm
I have learned to solve the Rubik's cube two years ago but totally forgot about it. I just bought a Rubik's cube and after 2 days I have finally solved it. Thanks a lot!

This video has good tips like what to do if during first layer phase there's a white "on top", saving moves. Also it helps visualize and understand what's going on during second layer corner alignment.
Wow! Finally! a tutorial that EXPLAINS what each of the steps does, instead of just shoving an algorithm to memorize down my throat! This is exactly waht I was looking for, I want to understand what I'm doing as I'm doing it, not just follow a bunch of moves and complete it without knowing really how. You're amazing!

I learned cubing first time last year from watching this video. I’m a middle aged working mom and not as quick as young kids, but I was able to learn in three days (only in the evening after work), each layer per evening. Even though now I watch JPerm more(sorry...), I can say that this video is the BEST for beginners. Far better than any other popular cubers out there. It’s also easier to move to CFOP. This deserves 10 million views. (The only issue was the flick was sometimes too fast for me as a beginner, so I watched with slower playing speed like x.5 or x.25. Then the sound becomes really funny, but it helped)
That's awesome. Thank you for the support and honest feedback. In future tutorials I will try to slow down the turns. This was the first tutorial I made and it was after an 11 year absence from cubing so I still had the muscle memory down but had a hard time trying to slow down without getting lost. Also see the 2x2 tutorials taught in the same format - How to Solve Rubik’s 2x2 So Easy a 3 Year Old Can Do It: ua-cam.com/video/UYCeyu_pbTI/v-deo.html How To Solve 2x2 Rubik’s Cube Part 2: Intermediate Method ua-cam.com/video/fDfpjC-GPBM/v-deo.html Website: www.KevinGittemeier.com Thanks again
Kevin Gittemeier I explored a few beginner method videos and concluded that your video was the best in the end. I love how you explain the first layer by tapping the white sticker on the side, and second layer by chasing special rabbits, and third layer with little fish and big fish concept instead of calling it sune. It’s such a great way to remember. But as a beginner, it was hard to see quick turn as simple as sexy moves or sledge hammer when I had no idea about basic turns. I think that’s why it was the hardest to learn the first layer, then second layer, and actually third layer was the easiest to learn cuz it’s based on algorithm (and you kindly shows the notation on screen) If you have any plans to upload beginner video again, I want to say keep the method as it is (it’s great, nothing to change), just move it a bit slower (even simple move like RUR’ to kick the wrong edge out) so that beginners can see where the piece actually goes and how it moves. (I watched over and over again with .25x play speed to fully understand) Now I moved to CFOP but still sometimes watch this video. Now it just makes so much more sense than I watched first time!
Thanks, I eventually will make another 3x3 tutorial incorporating the feedback I received on this one, namely slowing down. I will get some more practice and experience making tutorials doing the others (Megaminx, Pyraminx etc) then when I remake the 3x3 is should be better. It was a lot more work than I anticipated and my time is limited so it’s difficult for me to make these. Emily tried to make a Pyraminx tutorial but had to shoot several takes and the final one she said wasn’t worthy of editing so she’ll have to shoot it again. It just takes practice, experience, failure and time. Her time is even more limited than mine though. “If you want to increase your success rate double your failure rate”
Awesome, I’m glad it helped! When ready check out my Megaminx Tutorial explaining my Layer by Layer Method to solve the Megaminx in an easy logical manner: ua-cam.com/video/iAf8zbq0HH8/v-deo.html www.kevingittemeier.com/how-to-solve-megaminx-last-layer-bm/
Just wanted to say that this is probably the best video I have ever seen, that is easy for beginners, and is a really great start for those who are thinking about advancing later on, as you don’t have to learn a completely knew ways of solving when you start learning how to be faster and more efficient.
This is the best solve video I've viewed so far. You actually explained the whys of the steps and the algorithms, which is much more valuable to know, than some rote memorization of several algorithms.
That’s awesome, congrats! Once comfortable solving the 3x3 you may find that you want to learn others as well: www.kevingittemeier.com/category/rubiks-cube/

I'm here to thank you. I've been cubing for 3 months and my averagre when I started it 1min-50 second. Now I can average about 15-20 seconds and I'm still using some of your algorithms thank you so much for making this video. I will update this comment again soon If I make some progress.
Thanks When ready for more puzzles, see my other tutorials: 2x2 Rubik’s Cube: ua-cam.com/video/UYCeyu_pbTI/v-deo.html 2x2 Cube Intermediate Method: ua-cam.com/video/fDfpjC-GPBM/v-deo.html Pyraminx Beginner Method: ua-cam.com/video/gKbJOAeEkNI/v-deo.html Pyraminx Intermediate Method: ua-cam.com/video/Jl-DhDrWWNE/v-deo.html Megaminx Last Layer Tutorial: youtu.be/s1FNwfFdr And more: www.kevingittemeier.com/category/rubiks-cube/
Yes...this is good for solving first and middle layer but third layer algorithms are quite hard to remember, instead.... Check out this video for third layer edges and corners....it's lot much easier.. ua-cam.com/video/7Ron6MN45LY/v-deo.html
Thank you! 🙏 After following your easy to understand strategies, my 10yr old son has *finally* solved his cube and he's now leaping around the living room celebrating this *momentous* occasion!! 😃😜😉😘 #yourock! ❤
Very good instructional video. You put a lot of planning and editing into video. Also removing color stickers that are not needed in a particular step really helped me see things much faster! Thanks!
Thanks, most can't see the amount of work put into this project and we did the same for “How to Solve Rubik’s 2x2 So Easy… ua-cam.com/video/UYCeyu_pbTI/v-deo.html .I plan to do a Megaminx tutorial in the same fashion (I have a super simple method) but I will need 9 Megaminxs to remove stickers for demos and that can get expensive.
Yes, click the gear icon and set to you desired play speed. This is intended to teach you "How" to solve the Rubik's Cube and provide required information. Its not intended to get your cube back to a solved state by following my every movement. Remember I have instructions and PDF downloads on my website: www.kevingittemeier.com/how-to-solve-rubiks-cube-easy/ www.kevingittemeier.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/3-year-old-solves-Rubiks-Cube-Beginner-Algorithms.pdf
@@KTFG my comment was more to compliment you on your skills and not to complain :) Also, I went through a dozen videos yesterday trying to find one that's easy to understand and follow. Yours wan the inly one I watched till the end and rewatching it today all over again. Why? Cause I love it! A bit more practice and I will be able to solve it all by myself. Then I'll teach my 4 y/o daughter all of that :) Btw, the gear icon and settings didn't help - you're still too fast for me. So I paused the video and kept pressing '' to go back and forth frame by frame. And if I was to change one thing to make your video better, it would be.... nothing! :) So THANK YOU, Kevin!!!!
No offense taken. I tried to slow it down a little in this 2x2 tutorial. “How To Solve 2x2 Rubik’s Cube: So Easy a 3 Year Old Can Do It”. ua-cam.com/video/UYCeyu_pbTI/v-deo.html Also note when you’re ready to learn more algorithms I have all 7 OLLs demonstrated on both 2x2 and 3x3 in this video. How To Solve 2x2 Rubik’s Cube Part 2: Intermediate Method ua-cam.com/video/fDfpjC-GPBM/v-deo.html Good luck
@@KTFG That move you do @26:54 after you say "Just flick them to the back" I could only see properly watching it 1 frame at the time. And what seemed like 1 move turned into 3 :) Isn't it what they do in NBA (and other games of course) after each match when they want to study their opponents moves? Watch in slo-mo and learn the techniques :) Welll.... I guess Netflix's gonna have to wait then :D Tahnk again!
At 25:53 I explain that we find two corners the same and we place them to the back. That is the important part and is done slowly. How I move them to the back or how quickly I moved them to the back the third time after showing the same move is irrelevant. I make this more clear in future tutorials, you’re not supposed to follow my every movement especially when I’m repeating it fast after I’ve already taught how to do it and I’m just showing how quickly and easily it can be done once familiar. But thank you for taking your time to explain to me your troubles because I will use that information in future tutorials. Remember to treat it like a question on a test that you don’t know. Skip it and go on and usually the question will answer itself either through your “now” better understanding or by actually giving you the information in a different manner. I have written and will be making a short PSA video on this very subject. Good luck and thanks again
Wow, i remember watching this vid along time ago and loveing cubes but hateing to learn to solve one, after this vid i finally learned how solve it, now i go to comps and with my friends and get 1-5 place, Thanks, So, Much.

30 min video I just watched multiple hours lol 😂 repeated multiple times. I think I just did steps 1&2 twenty times. I completed the cube of once lol thank you though I have now found a new obsession
Repetition to develop muscle memory as seen here: ua-cam.com/video/y_uwaxcReEI/v-deo.html I also have downloadable PDFs on my website: www.kevingittemeier.com/how-to-solve-rubiks-cube-easy/ www.kevingittemeier.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/3-year-old-solves-Rubiks-Cube-Beginner-Algorithms.pdf See recommended learning schedule in video description and pinned comment. Once cube is solved, to practice start by doing Line algorithm over and over again. Take a break for a few minutes then again. Do it both with eyes closed then by watching closely noticing how the pieces are moved. Then start with Little Fish over and over again. Take break then forward and backward (Big Fish). Then backward and forward. And so on. In later tutorials I made a section of practice strategies.

Glad it helped!

I first watched this video on July 28, 2022 and solved it for the first time. Now on October 19, 2023, I am sub-25 with Roux and moved on from the beginner method. This simple toy has become my biggest obsession and even got a friend to learn from you and also moved onto Roux.
That’s awesome!
I’ve considered learning other methods but I haven’t even had time to learn full advanced. I still use 4 look last layer.
This the easiest tutorial I've watched. I will teach my daughter this as well when she turns 3. Shes now 1 year old turning 2! Thanks
You should teach her now!
I guess I’m dumber than a 3 year old
Maybe start with: “How To Solve 2x2 Rubik’s Cube: So Easy a 3 Year Old Can Do It”. ua-cam.com/video/UYCeyu_pbTI/v-deo.html

No, you're not. You just have more on your mind than a 3 year old does.

I have gotten a few donations but I purchase most everything seen in my videos so consider using my Amazon affiliate links if planning to make a purchase of any sort. It doesn’t even have to be the product I link as long as the purchaser comes through my link I will get a small percentage of the sale while the buying still pays the same price.
That helps offset the cost of the material used in my videos.

Wow! Watched and tried other videos but this was the one that actually teaches you how to solve. Go nowhere else, this is the best guide.
Glad it helped!
*Gives cube to 3 year old*
3 year old: (throws)
It’s me elmo ah yes the baby knows that you have to break it then Reglue it
Lmao haha
Or slaps the cube and throw it at wall
Lol
Nice one
I memorized this method with J Perm's video, but I didn't really understand it. Your video made me understand what I was doing and why, thank you!!!!
I am glad it helped. Yes, these tutorials are more a class to Learn & Understand how to solve puzzles, not just copy movements.
Many people don’t like that though so I may make 3 versions of each tutorial:
1) Full compressive
2) Short Step by Step
3) Walk Through Solve
I go into deeper explanation in this Megaminx LL Tutorial: ua-cam.com/video/s1FNwfFdrTM/v-deo.html and also this Pyraminx Tutorial: ua-cam.com/video/gKbJOAeEkNI/v-deo.html .

this is super great. the only thing is that I know it's hard for you to go a bit slower with the turns, but I think it would help people fallow you if you don't flick the middle finger so fast it looks like nothing moved it was so fast. just a thought thanks for the vid still trying to break my way of solving the cube. I kind of made my own way and it takes me a long time to do it and yes, this vid helps me do it so much faster thank you for that.
I said similar thing.
I like his idea of showing us with the stickers removed for each step! I am thinking of purchasing a Lego one in which the colors are removable and mastering each step until the cube has no more blank spots.
Good idea, but don’t be afraid that you won’t get it solved. You will eventually and worst case scenario you can disassemble a regular cube and reassemble correctly. Many people have a fear of messing up or making mistakes but this short 1 minute video will dissuade that thought.

I watched this in 2021 for the first time and tbh this is the resson i got into cubing. Thank you
Awesome!
Couple of hours spent, rewatched vedio many times but in the end my daughter was super happy to finally solve it.
Thanks for posting it.😀👍👍👍
Awesome, congrats!
Hey! I just had to post here that after a lifetime of wishing I could solve a cube, thanks to your video I am solving now in a minute thirty. I have taught my son how to do it using this method as well and we just love doing cubing together. Thank you so much!
That’s awesome!

I know im a little late to this video but i just want to say i am SOOO thankful i found it. Your instructions are so clear i have actually managed to complete a cube for the first time in my life after trying for many decades to do so lol. I am now trying to learn to be able to redo the cube without having to use your video while doing so. Still gotta come back here and there but im getting there.
Awesome congrats!

I’ve been practicing for 5 months and I’ve been averaging 30 seconds from this video so I think this might be one of the best tutorials
Awesome, glad it helped!

I am revisiting to solve the rubik's cube again because my girl was given a cube for Childrens' day. I went thru many other tutorials and only get ever so confused, then I remembered Kevin's 3 yrs old daughter, I am so thankful to find this youtube again! It's the best ever! This video deserves more views and likes! I still could solve the 1st 2 layers easily and yellow cross, but need to look at the algorithm for small/big fish, then the corner & final 😀 Thank you so much Kevin for making this so easy for us!
That’s awesome, glad it helped.

Problems with Layer 2?
At 11:45 I explain and demonstrate how to locate and insert an Edge into the Right side of Layer 2.
If your Edge needs to go to the Left side,
Just do the mirror of that from the Left side as seen at 14:58 . Orange touching Orange, Green away from Green (turn top CCW rather than CW) kick the Corner out and chase the Edge, pair up and re-insert.
Make sure to look at and understand the concept of connecting Corners and Edges, not just follow notation.
When filming I had an even number of solves from both sides (Left & Right) but when editing I accidentally got a disproportionate number of solves from the Right side.
Let me know if that helps.

What a 3 year old solved it this guy is a good teacher
I solved my first cube with this tutorial. THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS!!!!!!!
How
I learned cubing first time last year from watching this video. I’m a middle aged working mom and not as quick as young kids, but I was able to learn in three days (only in the evening after work), each layer per evening.
Even though now I watch JPerm more(sorry...), I can say that this video is the BEST for beginners. Far better than any other popular cubers out there. It’s also easier to move to CFOP.
This deserves 10 million views.
(The only issue was the flick was sometimes too fast for me as a beginner, so I watched with slower playing speed like x.5 or x.25. Then the sound becomes really funny, but it helped)
That's awesome. Thank you for the support and honest feedback. In future tutorials I will try to slow down the turns. This was the first tutorial I made and it was after an 11 year absence from cubing so I still had the muscle memory down but had a hard time trying to slow down without getting lost.
Also see the 2x2 tutorials taught in the same format -

Website: www.KevinGittemeier.com
Thanks again
Kevin Gittemeier I explored a few beginner method videos and concluded that your video was the best in the end.
I love how you explain the first layer by tapping the white sticker on the side, and second layer by chasing special rabbits, and third layer with little fish and big fish concept instead of calling it sune.
It’s such a great way to remember.
But as a beginner, it was hard to see quick turn as simple as sexy moves or sledge hammer when I had no idea about basic turns.
I think that’s why it was the hardest to learn the first layer, then second layer, and actually third layer was the easiest to learn cuz it’s based on algorithm (and you kindly shows the notation on screen)
If you have any plans to upload beginner video again, I want to say keep the method as it is (it’s great, nothing to change), just move it a bit slower (even simple move like RUR’ to kick the wrong edge out) so that beginners can see where the piece actually goes and how it moves. (I watched over and over again with .25x play speed to fully understand)
Now I moved to CFOP but still sometimes watch this video. Now it just makes so much more sense than I watched first time!
Thanks, I eventually will make another 3x3 tutorial incorporating the feedback I received on this one, namely slowing down.
I will get some more practice and experience making tutorials doing the others (Megaminx, Pyraminx etc) then when I remake the 3x3 is should be better.
It was a lot more work than I anticipated and my time is limited so it’s difficult for me to make these.
Emily tried to make a Pyraminx tutorial but had to shoot several takes and the final one she said wasn’t worthy of editing so she’ll have to shoot it again. It just takes practice, experience, failure and time. Her time is even more limited than mine though.

Just wanted to say that this is probably the best video I have ever seen, that is easy for beginners, and is a really great start for those who are thinking about advancing later on, as you don’t have to learn a completely knew ways of solving when you start learning how to be faster and more efficient.

Thanks, most can't see the amount of work put into this project and we did the same for “How to Solve Rubik’s 2x2 So Easy… ua-cam.com/video/UYCeyu_pbTI/v-deo.html .I plan to do a Megaminx tutorial in the same fashion (I have a super simple method) but I will need 9 Megaminxs to remove stickers for demos and that can get expensive.
😂
I need to watch this in slow motion :(
Yes, click the gear icon and set to you desired play speed.
This is intended to teach you "How" to solve the Rubik's Cube and provide required information. Its not intended to get your cube back to a solved state by following my every movement.
Remember I have instructions and PDF downloads on my website:
www.kevingittemeier.com/how-to-solve-rubiks-cube-easy/
www.kevingittemeier.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/3-year-old-solves-Rubiks-Cube-Beginner-Algorithms.pdf
@@KTFG my comment was more to compliment you on your skills and not to complain :) Also, I went through a dozen videos yesterday trying to find one that's easy to understand and follow. Yours wan the inly one I watched till the end and rewatching it today all over again. Why? Cause I love it! A bit more practice and I will be able to solve it all by myself. Then I'll teach my 4 y/o daughter all of that :)
Btw, the gear icon and settings didn't help - you're still too fast for me. So I paused the video and kept pressing '' to go back and forth frame by frame.
And if I was to change one thing to make your video better, it would be.... nothing! :) So THANK YOU, Kevin!!!!
No offense taken.
I tried to slow it down a little in this 2x2 tutorial.
“How To Solve 2x2 Rubik’s Cube: So Easy a 3 Year Old Can Do It”. ua-cam.com/video/UYCeyu_pbTI/v-deo.html
Also note when you’re ready to learn more algorithms I have all 7 OLLs demonstrated on both 2x2 and 3x3 in this video.

Good luck
@@KTFG That move you do @26:54 after you say "Just flick them to the back" I could only see properly watching it 1 frame at the time. And what seemed like 1 move turned into 3 :) Isn't it what they do in NBA (and other games of course) after each match when they want to study their opponents moves? Watch in slo-mo and learn the techniques :)
Welll.... I guess Netflix's gonna have to wait then :D Tahnk again!
At 25:53 I explain that we find two corners the same and we place them to the back. That is the important part and is done slowly. How I move them to the back or how quickly I moved them to the back the third time after showing the same move is irrelevant.
I make this more clear in future tutorials, you’re not supposed to follow my every movement especially when I’m repeating it fast after I’ve already taught how to do it and I’m just showing how quickly and easily it can be done once familiar.
But thank you for taking your time to explain to me your troubles because I will use that information in future tutorials.
Remember to treat it like a question on a test that you don’t know. Skip it and go on and usually the question will answer itself either through your “now” better understanding or by actually giving you the information in a different manner.
I have written and will be making a short PSA video on this very subject.
Good luck and thanks again
I was trying to learn oll pll for soooo long this video I have watched 2 years ago but not completely but now I am sooo thanks

Thank you very much for sharing, I learnt 2 layers for now! Remains only yellow layer... I have to focus and repeat
Practice the first 2 layers over and over for a day then next day refresh F2L before moving onto yellow cross, little fish and bid fish.

30 min video I just watched multiple hours lol 😂 repeated multiple times. I think I just did steps 1&2 twenty times. I completed the cube of once lol thank you though I have now found a new obsession
Congrats!
Thank you so much I have been able to do it 3 times in a day with this! Have any tips for memorizing the algorithms

See recommended learning schedule in video description and pinned comment.
Once cube is solved, to practice start by doing Line algorithm over and over again. Take a break for a few minutes then again. Do it both with eyes closed then by watching closely noticing how the pieces are moved.
Then start with Little Fish over and over again. Take break then forward and backward (Big Fish). Then backward and forward.
And so on.
In later tutorials I made a section of practice strategies.
Thank you! I memorized layer 2 in 1 hour because of this video.
edit- i solved my first cube omg
That's great!
This is 100% the best tutorial for a beginner. The other ones had crazy algorithms but this one made it super simple to remember

Bro I've never seen a 3 year old that focused most 3 year olds I know wouldn't even look at the cube but just throw it
We didn’t think much of it at the time but in hindsight it is somewhat uncommon for a 3 year old: ua-cam.com/video/DUdq2vqybpU/v-deo.html
