Description
This Calculus 3 Course has hundreds of videosNote: If you know some Calculus 1 you could probably jump in and complete a significant portion of this course without Calculus 2.
Basically just,
1) Watch the videos, and try to follow along with a pencil and paper, take notes!
2) Try to do the problems before I do them(if you can!)
3) Repeat!
Calculus 3 is an absolutely beautiful subject. I hope you enjoy watching these videos and working through these problems as much as I have
