Physics Student Josh Martin Teaches Math to Millions on TikTok

Online learning may be the new normal for now and the foreseeable future. But for UAlbany junior Josh Martin, online learning is a personal passion.

Martin, a physics major from Cobleskill, has been providing his own brand of online tutoring on YouTube since his freshman year. His videos have mostly consisted of mathematics topics, a core component of the physics curriculum. His channel has more than 60 thousand subscribers, a clear indication that his approach has proven beneficial for a large group of learners.

When he came to UAlbany, the choice of major was an easy one for Martin. He credits working with Assistant Professors Ceclia Levy and Matthew Szydagis for helping ease the college transition for him, and for continuing to make physics relatable.
