Table of Contents

The days when people used to say that you need a degree to land a good job are long gone. Nowadays, only skills matter, and nobody is interested in asking where you acquired these skills. You will get the job quickly if you know how to get things done, which is precisely what the employer wants from you.

There are millions of places online and offline where you can acquire skills and be the best in your field. Online institutes and courses give you the option of flexibility and learning remotely. The prices vary from course to course depending on factors like course duration, difficulty, mode of teaching, and much more.

Today, there are many options from where you can learn, but the one place we all know, like home, is YouTube. Today, in this blog, we will discuss the biggest video-sharing company, YouTube, and how it reshapes learning experiences.

What Makes YouTube the Best?

First, we will discuss what makes YouTube the best educational video content provider and why it can be considered the best.

Free To Use

The most significant advantage of using YouTube is its free use. You don’t have to pay a single penny to watch the uploaded videos. On the other hand, most online educational platforms take heavy fees from students to access the content.

Some teachers and instructors ask for financial assistance as a gesture of help, but that is optional. You can support them if you learn from their content and are in a position to help them. YouTube also has payment criteria. Content creators with a certain amount of watch time and subscribers can monetize their channel and start earning.

Ease of Access

YouTube is user-friendly. Apart from their friendly navigation and functional pages, they have many unique features that many platforms lack. You can search for a topic and watch a video from the course directly without having to enroll or purchase that course.

This ease of access allows students to cover their syllabus or learn different skills through their desired roadmap. Other platforms only allow you to enroll in a course, and you can only cover topics deemed necessary by the instructors.

Vast Resources

According to Wyzowl, YouTube has over 800 million videos and 37 million channels, making it the biggest video-sharing company. You can easily find your desired topics quickly and with a few clicks. You can find everything on YouTube, from medical animations to complex differential equations.

Multiple Languages

Another fantastic thing about YouTube is that you will find content creators from all over the world. You can find your desired topic in your language on YouTube. Subtitles are also available sometimes that will help you understand the concepts better. 

Available on All Devices

Availability is an issue for many people. Some people have Androids, others have iOS-supported devices, and in short, many different devices and operating systems are in the market. There is a high chance that you might not find an app for your educational platform.

YouTube has an advantage on this point over all the other educational platforms. It is available on almost all devices. The main reason behind this is that YouTube is considered an essential app. Every new device or operating system ensures that YouTube runs smoothly on its system.

Feedback and Comment Discussions

You can also give feedback by liking or disliking or by commenting. Teachers and students interact with each other in the comment section. Also, it is open to all, meaning if you ask a doubt, anybody, including the creator, can help you by replying.

Downloadable Content

YouTube offers downloadable content. This means that you can also watch the videos in places where you don’t have internet connectivity. However, this feature is not available for web users. 

How is YouTube Helping Educational Content Creators and Students?

Here’s how educational content creators are benefiting from YouTube.

Amazing Algorithm

If you are watching a video on medical animation, then YouTube will recommend other videos from that channel and similar videos on the same topic. This helps content creators grow, achieve more subscribers, and watch time on their content.

To fully use this system, ensure that your title and description are well-written and that you’ve correctly used hashtags. YouTube also ranks videos based on engagement, so ask your users to give feedback.

Structured Playlist

Like other educational apps, YouTube allows you to add content to your playlists. This means that you can add a whole course to your YouTube playlist. Doing this lets you easily manage your content, and your students will have no difficulty watching your course.

Categorical Content Placement

YouTube also has categories that will classify your channel and videos to a specific type. For example, if you make gaming videos, your video will be shown to a big audience on the gaming tab under the explore section.
