Description
Calculus can be an intimidating subject if you don't have a good teacher. 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

 Great for going back to college January 8, 2009
Mr. Gibson provides very helpful and practical information on this DVD, and it's definitely helped me as I go back to graduate school after being out for 20 years. I've been impressed enough to add some of his other DVDs to my wish list for future purchase. He definitely hits the right points with Calculus 1, helping me understand derivatives a little better than when I originally took freshman calc.
 Beware on Delivery - No Seller Responses September 21, 2008

Ordered 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.

Well thought out. It's great for those who've been out of school for a while, and those who need help with the fundamentals.
VERY PLEASED !! August 3, 2008

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.
Awesome. March 31, 2008

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.
