America's most popular teacher doesn't work at Harvard University or a fancy prep school. In fact, he doesn't work in a school at all, but his lessons have been viewed more than 56 million times, US News and World Report reports.

Salman Khan, a former hedge fund manager, is the founder of Khan Academy, a free online learning platform with a library of more than 2,300 videos covering everything from basic algebra and differential equations to the Vietnam War.

Most videos are brief – anywhere from a couple of minutes to a half hour, depending on the subject.

Khan scrawls equations and writes down key terms on a computer program that simulates a chalk board as he explains them with a voiceover track.

?????? 汗在計(jì)算機(jī)上模擬建一個(gè)黑板，在上面寫方程式和畫草圖，另外還配有畫外音，對一些概念進(jìn)行講解。
