This was filmed in 2005 when Gil was 70. He just retired from MIT this month (May 2023) at age 88 after a 62 year career as a professor. What a great career.

In two years of junior college and 4 years of engineering, not once did anyone gave the column picture explanation. Mind blown. Thank you, Dr. Strang.

I wish I had teachers like Prof Gilbert Strang when I studied linear algebra. What a difference makes to have someone dedicated to explaining the geometry of what is going on.
-
Thank you Dr. Strang. I graduated from high school functionally illiterate in math. In my journey to teach myself math you have become a great mentor.

The cameraman here is now a Senior ML Engineer at Google, California.

Professor strang is master of teaching He is an artist. His way of teaching is a masterpiece. Thank you Sir. Respect, from India
-
This lecture plus 3blue1brown's videos are getting these concepts to stick for me. Thank you Prof. Strang!!!
-
Took 18.06 in 1992 and he taught it. Great stuff, and an awesome professor.
-
For everyone begining this lectures that have no notions of linear algebra, I reccomend you to watch 3Blue1Brown series before because he put a lot of image on the word. Sorry for the mistakes, I am not an english speaker.
-
its insane that this video is 15+ years old and still so valuable to someone beginning to learn linear algebra like myself
-
Kept 1st lecture intro to one minute. Bless this man.

We're using Professor Strang's book in my linear algebra class and I really cannot understand my professor's teaching style. My friend pointed me to these lectures instead and I already feel like I actually understand a lot more from this one lecture than I have the past two weeks in my class. Thanks Professor Strang!

An amazing first lecture, glad to see the audio is fixed, thanks for taking care of this course. It's beautiful to perceive people from all over the world gathering here to gain knowledge, Professor Strang is a great teacher <3

It's so important to develop a geometric view of linear algebra.

Hi professor and online collegueas. I'm a control engineering student, so Linear Algebra is the essential of my field of study. Despite I've taken a linear algebra course before and even sophisticated discussions in control systems, I never truly understood until now why it is better to think using columns instead of using rows. But now it's totally clear in my mind, so thank you very much, professor Gilbert. I'm anxious for the next classes.

Preparing for IIT/IISC M.S interviews. IIT Madras, Electrical Engineering department had recommended this lecture
-
I love the quirky teaching style of Prof. Strang, especially how he feigns to encounter something surprising, whereas in fact it is well-rehearsed.
-
That makes me remember the first semester linear algebra lecture. He certainly takes his time to explain, what the interpretation is and that is wonderful. We were not so lucky unfortunately.
