It is important to have a teacher that takes things step-by-step so the students don't get lost. That is exactly what this DVD set provides. I have tutored many, many people in Math through Calculus, and I have found that if you start off with the basics and take things one step at a time - anyone can learn complex Math topics. This 2-DVD set contains 8 hours of fully worked example problems in Calculus 1 and 2. After viewing this DVD course in Calculus 1 & 2 you'll discover that the material isn't hard at all if it is presented in a clear manner. No knowledge is assumed on the part of the student. Each example builds in complexity so before you know it you'll be working the 'tough' problems with ease! Have a problem with your homework? Simply find a similar problem fully worked out on the Calculus 1 & 2 2-DVD set! Topics Covered: Disk 1 Section 1: What Is A Derivative? Section 2: The Derivative Defined As A Limit Section 3: Differentiation Formulas Section 4: Derivatives Of Trigonometric Functions Section 5: The Chain Rule Section 6: Higher Order Derivatives Section 7: Related Rates Section 8: Curve Sketching Using Derivatives Disk 2 Section 9: Introduction To Integrals Section 10: Solving Integrals Section 11: Integration By Substitution Section 12: Calculating Volume With Integrals Section 13: Derivatives and Integrals Of Exponentials Section 14: Derivatives Of Logarithms Section 15: Integration By Parts Section 16: Integration By Trig Substitution Section 17: Improper Integrals Average Rating:
 Rating:  - Beware on Delivery - No Seller ResponsesOrdered late August. Two day delivery paid for. No delivery. After a series of emails, each one a tag more P.O'oed than the one before....and NONE were responded to. I finally threatened to go to AMAZON to get this resolve. Only THEN was the product delivered. Approximately THREE weeks after ordering, it was finally shipped out. The product may or may NOT BE good and of itself, just don't expect to actually GET it before the semester is over. Rating:  - Great refresherWell thought out. It's great for those who've been out of school for a while, and those who need help with the fundamentals. Rating: - VERY PLEASED !!Mr. Gibson is an amazing, patient, and deeply knowledgeable professor. His products is very well done and easy to use. As a father of two sons, I am very delighted that I found an easy source to teach my sons difficult topics very effectively. These DVDs are also good for people who have solid ground in math and physics because they can review their information very quickly. I recommend these DVDs as supplementary material for math/physics classes. Rating: - Awesome.This tutor is very effective at teaching you the very basics on a particular topic. It isn't extremely thorough, but if you're in class one day and have no idea what the teacher is talking about, you can refer to this and be like "of course, thats what he/she meant". Even better, use this before your lecture and have a headstart on the days topic. Rating: - Ideal for political scientists!Calculus is one of those things that make you feel either as an insider or an outsider. If you know it, you feel like one of the happy few. If you don't (but know of its existence), you develop some kind of complex against it. Now, this DVD is made for many different kinds of audiences, including (mainly) high-school students, and (secondarily) freshmen college students in science or economics. I will give my opinion as someone quite different. I am: (a) a social scientist, and ... Read More |
