Some people are smart because they were born with a talent for learning. If society wouldn't crush children's creativity and curiosity, maybe this would happen more often.
This is a message to everyone here, if you have children or are planning of having children, PAY ATTENTION TO THEM NO MATTER WHAT, if they say school is boring then take it seriously, if they request to learn something different, start them off with something simple yet interesting.
I aced all my college classes and i thought i was smart until i saw this video. There goes my self-confidence. Btw, im really glad that the parents still allow him to be kid.
Why don't neuroscientists gather all these human miracles such as prodigies and savants and actually do some serious studies.We could find out so much about the human mind.
I really think if i was kept away from Girls, TV, Soda, Candy and didn't have worry about family problems and being bullied at a young age, i would perform way better not on his level but not that far apart... wish him the best !!!
Usually when you see this kid geniuses they seem to be incredibly awkward and have serious social problems, but Tanishq obviously seems to be able to act just like a normal kid. It's a great testament to his parents, allowing him to still have fun and make friends.
Kid is smart for sure, but video is slightly disingenuous in the way they present where he's at. I'm working my way through an astro PhD right now and the coursework is definitely first year level and not later (though since it's a community college that makes sense). I'm not knocking his knowledge, just noting it sounds a lot more impressive than it really is to those who don't know the topic. I hope his parents figure out how to toe the line of keeping him engaged but not overburdening him.
I'm supposed my child won't be a prodigy, and I'm really happy about it!! :)) I don't think is goodfor a child to be so much different from peers. Social skills are more important at that age (actually, at any age)
It's not just the children that inspire me, it's also the amazing parents who do everything in their power to assist their child in furthering their understanding. Great parents make great kids!
The kid is just lucky that he receives all this opportunities.Most kids his age don't get home-schooled, don't even get raised the same way. His parents can afford college. The kid is missing out on his childhood. He even misses having friends! I'm sure more kids could be as smart as he is with the right parental supervision. You can notice that he is a child just by what he suggests sometimes. But the parents push him (notice the T-shirt he's wearing in the end and the quote, idea of parents?).
Hats off to his intelligent, caring, and supportive family. In order to constantly challenge a person with such talent like Tanishq, they've must have been very active with his interests. I wish all parents all over the world would be able to do this with their children as well. He seems to have a very well rounded life; good for him! Best of luck Tanishq!
My mother was told by a psychologist that I would never be able to get married if she allowed me to be put into a higher grade as my school had suggested. I was kept at grade/age level all my school years. i learned nothing in my classes, was not able to communicate with people my own age, but I didn't stop learning. I am incredibly educated but have no certification for it. I am happy that i didn't allow myself to stagnate. I did marry and have children. Now I am writing books.So happy for him
this is cleary for me,this kid has about a 60% more neurons then normal childs. But the problem starts when at a highter age a 50% of them just dies. That happends when you become an adult!
Haha omg! American River in Sacramento!? I'm friends with a lot of the tennis players there xD, I'm from the Chabot College tennis team and we're close to the ARC team lols. What an odd coincidence the chances of seeing a video about a prodigy that goes to that school lols
You shouldn't. Children are typically born with amazing abilities (unless there is some form of inimical birth defect). The thing that helps him grow at such a high rate is that he has support and homeschooling (which has been proven time and time again to be much more effective than regular schooling) from his (most likely strict [Indian families tend to place more emphasis on schooling than American families]) family. I would be surprised if he did not excel in topics that he enjoys.
I love how he said "its never boring talking to college students." How sweet and innocent. The college intellectual ambiance is relaxing, stimulating, & nurturing for both the body, mind, and soul. It expands & relax our minds. Whether you are 9 or 90 years old - learning is beautiful, calming, & inspirational.
Shouldn't be laughing actually. Recent advancements in mathematics support the possibility of faster than light travel by warping space around a body with incredible amounts of negative energy. Look it up. Technically the craft can't go faster than light but it can bend space to travel less distance. Its similar to the point on a paper analogy where folding the paper will make the point travel across the paper without actually moving.
yeah, people don't seem to understand the concept of a theory. Theories don't represent an absolute truth, they try to describe the natural world as precisely as possible, but no more precise. Theories are altered or even replaced by better theories all the time ...
The amount of material possessions one comes to accumulate in a life time are not what matters, in death how you die does not matter, in both what matters is what you did with your life.
Tanishq has two gifts in life: 1) His God-given desire to learn at an accelerated level (and therefore his ability to do so at an early age) 2) His supportive parents...it's clear he would never have these opportunities if it wasn't for their encouragement and dedication to him and his sister. Remarkable. Much kudos to everyone involved in enriching this kid's life.
Beautiful....Theres no doubt that he is insanely gifted but this video also shows what happens when you remove the walls set by traditional schooling and let kids learn at their own pace. Go Tanishq!!!! :)
