A Quote by Sal Khan
If a student has access to a great school, Khan Academy can supercharge it. It should help a well-resourced school, and if you don't have that, then Khan Academy can have even a bigger impact. But I don't see it as replacing the actual schools... we want to empower teachers and fill in the gaps.

By early 2009, tens of thousands of students were watching tutorials on the Khan Academy every day.
