Rehan Afzal Khan
Hi there, budding scientists — and welcome, parents and teachers! I'm so excited to be your guide on this journey into the wonderful world of physics. I've spent years making science come alive for young learners, and I firmly believe that every child is born a natural scientist — full of questions, curiosity, and a love of discovering how things work. In this course, we're going to explore some of the biggest ideas in physics using simple experiments, everyday examples, and a whole lot of fun. No boring textbooks here — just real science you can see, touch, and test for yourself. I can't wait to see the experiments you try and the questions you come up with along the way. Let's get started!
