ABOUT
At the time where the world was beset by pandemic, when humans were in the shambles and eerie caught them held so bad that it was a matter of life and death, there came a shining idea and Studimation (a portmanteau of Study & Animation) came into existence. Studimation is an educational YouTube channel started by Zainab Khan who is a student herself. The channel launched with a focus on core subjects, specifically, English, Math and Science. As Zainab continued to progress in school, getting exposed to new subjects, she was able to produce videos on more courses, adding subjects like Computer Science, Music and U.S. History. To date, there are videos on 8 different courses, totalling to over 1 million+ views and 5k+ subscribers. Notably, these courses have been utilized by the California Adult Education Department. A year after its creation, the channel also began a series of episodes called Book Week, where every year, on the week following World Book Day (April 21), authors from around the world gather to share insights and answer questions from students. Hosted by Zainab herself, the series has featured some of the most renowned authors, such as Jackie French and Wendy Orr from Australia.
