This is the nicest compliment I have had. Thank you very much. Also, when I was a student at Cal State Northridge in the 60s, I used to drive to the library at UCLA so I would read the physics book written by Feynman.
This man has helped me so much in Calc 1 so far it's not even funny. My teacher flies through steps and assumes I remember ever algebraic step and rule anyone has ever told me my entire life. It's nice to be able to see everything laid out step by step and explained slowly and carefully. It also helps I can pause the video and try to do the problems before him to see where I stand. Thanks guy!
Thank you for taking the time and producing this video. I have spend hours trying to figure out what you just taught in 10 mins. Your time is very appreciated.
Thank you so much. I have just been struggling and struggling trying to wrap my head around integration and you magically made it so so so much clearer. Thank you thank you!
thank you. thank you thank you thankyouthankyou. What took you 10 minutes took my prof an excruciating hour and a half. Your clarity is much appreciated! Keep the vids comin!
THANKYOU SO MUCH! You are an absolute lifesaver my friend. I have a test today and I had NO clue whatsoever on how to do integration, and this video is my saviour. THANKYOU! :D
Im a college drop out. An electrician now, I want to get back into it and this video makes it seem so simple. Taking notes and looking up problems online. For the first time I actually think I can do math. Thanks for the great videos.
Thank God I found you, sir. My teacher just goes way too fast and doesn't break it down like you do. I'm finally getting it. Thanks for taking that huge weigh off my shoulders
You know I've been trying to wrap my mind around this by reading it with no success. Thank you for these videos since they've crystallized what I've taught myself and given my me D'oh moment.
Why is math so hard when one person explains it, but when the right person gives the right explanation it's so simple? Thanks for this. I've been ramming my head into the wall on this one for hours before I found this video.
My Calc teacher was very good. You are amazing. Fantastic explanations, I envy your students too. You deserve a raise, no matter what you're currently paid.
beautiful....this is an example of how to share ur blessings with others..weather it be knowledge or money where all wealthy somewhere and we can all afford to give back to our community somehow...thanks again
I have seen many a math lectures by big names like prof. Gilbert Strang of MIT and others of Princeton, etc. All of them were great, sure, but there is something about you that just makes you a cut above the rest. And when I say "rest" I mean any teacher of any subject and that's why I will confidently say: You are the best Mathematics teacher I have ever come across(and I have come across a lot!). You are to Math teaching what Feynman was to Physics teaching!
i love the way u teach sir, when i took calculus two i didnt understand or cared much bout these computations but now im realizing i need definite integrals for physics and electricity classes. thank you for these videos
in my college calc. 1 is one quarter, and then next quarter comes calc. 2 and then calc. 3 i'm in calc. 2 right now, and i'm really relieved to find this information online because we just learning the fundamental theorem of calculus so it sucked suffering through having to do limits of sums by hand he explains the ideas extremely clearly, thanks!
I graduated with a economics and comp sci degree. Stumbled onto this. Excellent explaining. My Calc 1 professor was Russian and spoke with a horrible accent. Good job
This video was definately worth our time. It was very helpful, and you are not only a very good math teacher, but you are a good speaker too :) video went smoothly
I'm going through this video and recognizing a lot of techniques and examples my calculus teacher uses. This video is great! So helpful! Love to see the internet being used for it's intended purpose. :)
I love this guy! I only did up to math analysis in high school and Its easy understanding calculus after completing algebra 2 and trigonometry. Those are the only classes that you pretty much need to understand calculus
Thanks for the awesome explaination! I have been having trouble with integrals lately and looked to RUclips as a last resort before reading all of the sections again.
Thanks SOO Much!! I had a 93 in calc last year, but this semster I was so lost because our prof over complicates every little thing. These videos helped me a lot!
It depends. If PI is being used with sin, cos, etc then yes as PI when referred to angles is measured in radians. PI as an angle is 180. so 180/4 = 45 degrees. If PI is used elsewhere, its 3.14
c means constant, adding a constant to every indefinite integral because it does not go from a certain number to a certain number. the constant can be a positive constant or a negative one, so it can be written as + (-8) = -8 or some other number. hope this helps.
OMG, You are way better than my teacher at explaining this!!! I am almost done downloading all of your videos, so i can have them for future reference. Thanks!!!
Super helpful thank you. On the U substitution videos, would it be possible to demonstrate a few more complicated problems, such as Integral of x/square root (x-4)?
This is a great explanation. I particularly like 1:42, where to apply the power rule you point out that you can only use it if we're integrating with respect to the dependent variable. If I get what you're saying, it is that a more generic rule could be written using the chain rule: the integral of u to the n dx = u to the n + 1 over u + 1 all times the derivative of u all + C.
I agree and I TRULY BELIEVE that there are far better people to explaining the details or subject for example let's say Calculus while let's say you are a high school student or a person getting ready to take calculus and need some kind of insight on the material this is the place. But there ARE some professor who MAY know the material BUT depending on the day or THEY CAN'T TEACH I go on the internet and hope someone can explain the material in their own words. I'm really glad MathTV is here.
No offense to a lot of professors out there, but they can definitely take a leaf outta this guy's book. Simple, straightforward explanations that help boost the transition from learning to problem-solving. Too often I find that I have to "learn as I go along," which is not good.
Very helpful thanks, Starting clac 2, and apparently they were suppose to cover this in my calc 1 class but didn't. most resources go into way to much depth and hard to grasp, this was a good amount of depth to start. thanks.
You are amazing, thank you!!! I'm not very good at calculus--but calculus just happens to be a pre-requisite for some of the classes I'm required to take for my major. It's been a struggle, but your videos are making things a bit easier. =)
Thank you so much I missed my lecture on integrals yesterday and today I think we might have a quiz, but now I definitely have a more concrete idea of what to do. Thank you so much.
Too old for advanced math and calculus if you haven't used it for over 35 years? Kind of an odd question, perhaps, so i apologize in advance if it is inappropriate for this forum. i've never taken an advanced level mathematics course since i finished and passed high school grade 12, and didn't complete university. A book reintroduced me to calculus with which i'd had a fleeting encounter with during high school, so to understand what i was reading I figured i needed to brush up, so i picked up a copy of Stewart's "Calculus". Eventually I spent more time working through that book than on the original text. i also got a copy of "Differential Equations" by Edwards and Penny after i had learned enough calculus to understand that. i've also been learning linear algebra - MIT's lectures and problem sets have really helped in this area. I'm fascinated with the mathematics of the Fourier transform, particularly its application to music in the form of the DFT and DSP - I've enjoyed the lectures that Stanford has available on the topic immensely. i just picked up a little book called "Introduction To Bessel Functions" by Frank Bowman that I'm looking forward to reading. The difficulty is, i'm 55 years old, and i can tell that i'm a lot slower at this than i would have been if i had studied it at age 18. i'm also starting to feel that i'm getting into material that is going to be very difficult to learn without structure or some kind of instruction - like i've picked all the low-hanging fruit and that i'm at the point of diminishing returns. i feel a great deal of regret, though, that i didn't discover that i enjoyed this discipline until it was probably too late to make any difference. i am able, however, to return to college now if i so choose. The questions i'd like opinions on are these: is returning to school at my age for science or mathematics possible? Is it worth it? i've had a lot of difficulty finding any examples of people who have gotten their first degrees in science or mathematics at my age. Do such people exist? Or is this avenue essentially forever closed beyond a certain point? If anyone is familiar with older first-time students in mathematics or science - how do they fare?
it's weird because I feel like this is exactly what my teacher is saying in class, but I can understand it 10 times better here. any way, these videos are life savers :)
extremely useful in mechanical engineering, it allows us to calculate the center of mass of any object and the work energies of the object...without it you wouldn't have roller coasters...you know the summer job which became your life story.
Stealthkiller2107 calculus 1 is a one semester course. Some universities have an accelerated program or Honors where cal 1 is combined with call 11 and it is a whole year. In your high school, Cal AB is just cal 1 and 2. Cal BC is Cal 1,2, and a little 3 in one year.
greatest teacher ever lived... the way he speaks and explain the steps with such a clean and effortless style makes math enjoyable and easy
This is the nicest compliment I have had. Thank you very much. Also, when I was a student at Cal State Northridge in the 60s, I used to drive to the library at UCLA so I would read the physics book written by Feynman.
he looks so sweet i just want to give him a hug thank you for making these videos

Thanks guy!
This video is so well made, the explanations are so comprehensible and the handwriting is immaculate. Thank you so much for posting!
This guy is a really good math teacher, seems like you can learn a lot from him.
thank you sir, you are the fifth person to explain this to me, and the only one who has actually helped me. thank you so much!
Thank you for taking the time and producing this video. I have spend hours trying to figure out what you just taught in 10 mins. Your time is very appreciated.
When I'm happy I smile - when I learn something I am happy - I am smiling now - great simple explanation. Thank you
Can’t believe it’s almost been 11 years, this video really brings back a lot of memories. Thank you, hope you’re doing well
Thank you so much. I have just been struggling and struggling trying to wrap my head around integration and you magically made it so so so much clearer. Thank you thank you!
This teacher is very captivating and amazing. This professor never makes a mistake
THANK YOU. This lecture is extremely helpful, and i am getting ready for my final in a couple of days. Subbed.
I love you, you just broke down a week of calc into 9 minutes and I understand it. You definitely got my sub.
You are a brilliant professor who can sum up concepts in minutes. Thanks!!
This makes so much more sense than ALL the other videos I've watched!!!!
thank you. thank you thank you thankyouthankyou. What took you 10 minutes took my prof an excruciating hour and a half. Your clarity is much appreciated! Keep the vids comin!
He's a great teacher just teaching really fast. I had to keep pauseing and rewinding but its all good. The info and examples are a lot of help.
I'm from Iraq and these lessons are too important ... Love it
THANKYOU SO MUCH! You are an absolute lifesaver my friend. I have a test today and I had NO clue whatsoever on how to do integration, and this video is my saviour. THANKYOU! :D

The video help me a lot, i was amazed at how simple calculus seems in comparison to its reputation as the evil of all evils, thanks again
I took calculus at the Univ of Illinois 49 years ago, and I still remember this. Amazing.
So concise, great pace, and clarity, just amazing.
My Calc teacher was very good. You are amazing. Fantastic explanations, I envy your students too. You deserve a raise, no matter what you're currently paid.
For me ..You are a perfect teacher coz you explain the topic clearly and understandably to your viewer like me.
You were born to teach. God bless you
I love you, you saved my grades and my GPA.. God bless brother...
beautiful....this is an example of how to share ur blessings with others..weather it be knowledge or money where all wealthy somewhere and we can all afford to give back to our community somehow...thanks again
Gosh, cant believe I forgot all this since college. Thanks a lot, you are a wonderful teacher!
Only if my teacher could teach like you. Thank you so much sir. So much respect
I have seen many a math lectures by big names like prof. Gilbert Strang of MIT and others of Princeton, etc. All of them were great, sure, but there is something about you that just makes you a cut above the rest.

You are to Math teaching what Feynman was to Physics teaching!
Your videos are very helpful. You helped me understand the concepts of calculus in a very simplistic way. Thank you.
this class is amazingly clear!! the teacher is outstanding!! how can he teach this concept so clearly!! thanks
i love the way u teach sir, when i took calculus two i didnt understand or cared much bout these computations but now im realizing i need definite integrals for physics and electricity classes. thank you for these videos
Great review for a Mechanical Engineer that has not taken Calculus in a while. You make it look so easy! Makes perfect sense! :D
You're very good at explaining things and at making them look easy :) I think it's great that you take time to make these video tutorials!!
Your like by far the best teacher I have seen in my 15 plus years of education that i have received..lol..i would deff love to take calculus with u..
I never thought I'd be on youtube for math help, but it actually helped !
wow your a great teacher,everything is explained so clearly.I am really happy i found your videos and i love your voice! Good job keep it up.
in my college calc. 1 is one quarter, and then next quarter comes calc. 2 and then calc. 3
i'm in calc. 2 right now, and i'm really relieved to find this information online because we just learning the fundamental theorem of calculus so it sucked suffering through having to do limits of sums by hand
he explains the ideas extremely clearly, thanks!
im studying maths in the uk at a level and would just like to say thank you, youre video has really helped me in my revision for an upcoming exam!
I graduated with a economics and comp sci degree. Stumbled onto this. Excellent explaining. My Calc 1 professor was Russian and spoke with a horrible accent. Good job
This video was definately worth our time. It was very helpful, and you are not only a very good math teacher, but you are a good speaker too :) video went smoothly

God bless you old man : }
Thanks for the awesome explaination! I have been having trouble with integrals lately and looked to RUclips as a last resort before reading all of the sections again.
This is great. We just started integration last week and this has really helped me get ahead.
Thanks, I really like how you present your videos, i think you're a great teacher!!
This was very helpful!! 3 months of summer and I've already forgotten much of calc1. School's starting soon so this was a great refresher!
Thanks SOO Much!! I had a 93 in calc last year, but this semster I was so lost because our prof over complicates every little thing. These videos helped me a lot!

very helpful material . this is the best math teacher i have seen
Excellent! I'm coming back to this at a later age - because I give a hoot. And now I get it. Must be the eyebrows.
OMG, You are way better than my teacher at explaining this!!! I am almost done downloading all of your videos, so i can have them for future reference. Thanks!!!
Thanks for the quick lesson. It helps alot especially for someone trying to get ahead a bit.
Super helpful thank you.
On the U substitution videos, would it be possible to demonstrate a few more complicated problems, such as Integral of x/square root (x-4)?

2 weeks of confusion sumed up in this 9 minute video. Thanks a lot man!
someone tell this man he saved my life.
thank you sir, this is the first time i have ever understood any of this
I am only in trigonometry and it's videos like these that make me excited for Calculus next year!
This guy makes mathematics and Calc look incredibly easy!
Finally... I understood how to integrate somehow. This video is really helpful! Thanks!
your a brilliat teacher.. you may have saved my engieering degree.. thank you very much
you're better at explaining than my math teacher! thank you!!! AP exams are coming up and i really needed the help!
you rock :)
You are a great teacher because of this I will be ahead of the other students in my class
I agree and I TRULY BELIEVE that there are far better people to explaining the details or subject for example let's say Calculus while let's say you are a high school student or a person getting ready to take calculus and need some kind of insight on the material this is the place.

some of the best tutorials thx!
Let's all subscribe so this man never goes hungry again

Thank you, you are great help. Nine minutes was enough to refresh basic before my signal analysis exam. Normally it would take hours...
Hey whoever posted this you should let this guy know he a good teacher. He cleared up alot of stuff about integrals for me. Now they're pretty basic!

Awesome teacher is awesome. Thank you very much; this was just what I need for a bit of catch-up.
Peace.
thank you so much! I wish I had a professor like you. greetings from Poland

Took calc 2 years ago forgot most of this. Now have to take physical chemistry and i need these. thanks a lot I now remember this stuff! :)
Great video, a lot of useful information in such a short amount of time. I wish you were my Math teacher! Thank you
God bless you, really.
Greetings from Venezuela
all the way from Brazil, THANK YOU!THANK YOU!THANK YOU!THANK YOU!THANK YOU!THANK YOU!THANK YOU!THANK YOU!THANK YOU!THANK YOU!
This guy is great... Thank you sir! You are better than my professor.
im in calculus in college i look away for a sec and everything moves fast n i missed it, i like his pace and that i can playback to where i need it
You answered my question in less than a minute! Thank you!
finally a calc professor i can actualy understand and read their writing!!!
