Educational TikTok: 6 TikTok Accounts You Can Learn From

Education can be provided anywhere. It just needs a teacher, a learner, and a platform where knowledge can be openly shared.

TikTok actually qualifies in this criteria too as more people use the video-sharing site as a way to educate their viewers on various fields of expertise and skills.

Whether it is about Mathematics problems or an introduction to music theory, TikTok can certainly make learning much more enjoyable and interactive.

Here are just some of the people you can follow to expand your knowledge and skills:

Hank Green

Hank Green is not just the brother of famous American author John Green but a pillar in EducTok (Educational TikTok).

This YouTube science communicator has brought years of knowledge in various fields of science to TikTok to help people understand more about genetics, geology, astronomy, and many more.

Green even engages with the audience from time to time, answering their questions in the comment section with easy-to-understand in-depth explanations.

Green currently has a growing community of enthusiastic learners, both young and old, on TikTok with over 8 million followers.

Kyne

Kyne bridges two communities previously thought to be totally separate: the Mathematics and Drag Queen fans.

Aside from beauty tips and raising social issues in America, Canada's Drag Race Season 1 contender uses her platform to teach people about algebra, geometry, and even basic calculus.

Kyne believes that bringing STEM-related topics to TikTok will help people understand that the drag community is not exclusive to adults but can also be a source of knowledge for young minds.

Kyne currently has over 1.5 million followers, proving that her beliefs exist in many people around the world.

Odd Animal Specimens

Interested in the animal world? Then Odd Animal Specimens might just be the account for you.

The account features preserved samples from various animals as the narrator dissects how each body part performs a specific purpose for the species' survival.

Yes, we can learn many things even in death. The account even lets the audience guess the animal based on their bones as added trivia to allow people to use their deductive skills.

etymologynerd

If there is one way to describe etymologynerd, it is educational but wild. Their videos are perfect for hyperactive minds eager to learn how certain words came to be.

It is a mix of history lessons and linguistics in a way that anyone can easily understand, much like someone dropping an exposition during a regular conversation.

Sometimes the account posts of baking Egyptian hieroglyphs or ancient cuneiform tablets before proceeding to tell how they evolved into the modern languages we use today. Sometimes, they also invent a whole new language.

magnify

Similar to Hank Green's content, magnify discusses various odd topics that someone could have searched on Google in passing.

They provide general information on topics about language, culture, and history and how it applies to our current society.

Watching their videos is a great way to view the world's interesting events in a peculiar but fun manner.

ProkoTV

While there are many art accounts on TikTok teaching people how to draw, there are only a few who have provided professional-approved basic guides for those starting.

ProkoTV is a great account for both new and professional artists to gain more knowledge on how anatomy and structures can be translated into illustrations.

The account provides in-depth commentaries while showing the actual procedure of their lessons so that people can do the same thing while watching.

Proko also provides feedback to the audience, adapting their instructions based on how others try to get into the drawing. They are super beginner-friendly and do not gatekeep on how one can draw.
