Dear Prof. Walter Lewin
I am a worker in China.I love physics since I was young.But I chose a different major in college.Now I am 27.It is not easy for me to study physics from the beginning at this age.You and your lectures have given me a lot of courage and confidence to restart.Thank you very much. You are the best teacher I have ever seen.

Best Resgards!
