I'm in college and about to start my third year (business school) but one class has been holding me back.   This is literally my third time taking Calculus I (it's the only class I've needed for two semesters to move onto business school) and have been having some serious difficulty with it.

I am terrible at studying (have pretty bad ADD) and get distracted easy.  My teachers are all too foreign or too old and I can't learn a thing from them.  I was wondering if any of you guys know of some good sites that have good Calculus level math lectures?  Maybe one you have used and could recommend.  I've been using youtube but they seem a bit basic and never go into more advanced problems of the concept.

In pariticular anything relating to continuity,  chain rule, and multiple derivitive problems would be awesome.  

The same thing happened to me. Does your college have math tutors? They are a great help.

I am a math major. I do not know any online tutors but if you need help with a problem hit me up. I am really good at derivatives as well (chain rule, power rule, product rule, whichever).

There's also the Khan Academy as well.

I'm a third year physics student going into maths teaching. I'll help with anything in as much detail as you want.

Yeah but it's ridiculously crowded especially when we are 1 week off first exams.

I remember that course. It was a pain. Crowded class room and prof's voice the best kind of sleeping pill. Than there was part 2 of this course. 30-40% of the class failed. Had to bell curve everyone up a bit. Oh well don't want to think of that stuff again. 

Try Khan Academy, it helped me through most of the basic Calculus you can imagine. Most of the topics you mentioned (such as chain or product rule, normal or implicit differentiation, all sorts of integration, etc) are all covered by this site and more.

If you need any more help though on particular topics, I could perhaps try to help out somewhat given time since I'm a third year Astrophysics student. But yea try the above site, Mr. Khan is perhaps one of the most eloquent Mathematics teachers out there. Plus it's completely free.

Thanks guys I'll try Khan Academy and let you know if I need any help. Got an exam on wendsday lol.

That sucks, considering that the math courses are one of the hardest you will encounter in college.

Math isn't hard at all - and I am not saying this because I am a math major, because I started out on the bottom (my first college course was Intermediate Algebra!). People have to think of math like a cook book - if you do all the steps correctly, you come out with a good thing. Make a mistake, and it's no good. Just remember all the rules and keep APPLYING them - in Calculus, especially. You will NOT learn Calculus by doing one or two problems and think you've mastered it - I used to be bad at math, but I did MORE than what the professor asked. I practiced at least 50 questions per section, minimum, and would keep doing it.

Math isn't hard, but it's a lot of work and a LOT of practice. It's like learning a new language or guitar - you won't be a master overnight, but practice, apply, and keep doing it and it shouldn't be a problem.

I think a problem is a lot of math professors cannot teach it. In fact most math teachers suck, they take an amazing subject like math and make it boring. Math should be viewed as an art and a solution, and not just a boring set of rules to follow to get on with your life. Then math people (I am guilty of this TBH) know it so well it's hard for them to teach it because they know it so well they cannot explain it to someone who doesn't get it.

Never give up, always practice, do all sorts of practice problems. I think the poster shakarak is doing derivatives, which aren't actually bad. I assume he is also on the squeeze theorem and limits, rates of change... Calc I isn't actually that bad, Calc II (integral calculus) is when it becomes INSANE though and I do not recommend taking a lot of classes while taking that one - it is very time consuming.

Sorry for the long post lol. But if anyone needs help with math hit me a PM I will help you for free, cause I love doing math!
