    Respected *Shawn Hymel* sir,
    I am a student, and literally the way you have teached electricity and electromagnetism is infinite wonderful!❤️ You have given us knowledge in the best way which nobody has ever given to us!
    In india , teachers don't teach us correctly, they just make. Us gulp the text written in the book.
    I request you teacher Shawn hymel that please try to teach us more physics like that you did in past(electricity, electromagnetism)
    I know making more such videos will take a lot of effort! But please try to help,
    Hope you will reply sir🙏🙏🙏👍❤️😁
    Sorry for inconvenience as I sent this message on all your videos 👍👍
