About

Dive into the world of higher dimensions with our comprehensive Multi-Variable Calculus Series. This course is auxiliary in nature where, unlike any standardized models like AP or IB, no "standardized" course framework exists; however, specific topics (linked below) generally associated with Multi-Variable Calculus will be covered. Nonetheless, this course is designed to broaden your mathematical horizon and provide a solid foundation for handling more problems with... well... multiple variables.

Whether you're preparing for advanced studies in college or exploring mathematical concepts out of sheer curiosity, we highly recommend you join our series and learn with us. Note that we recommend that you have taken or currently are taking AP Calculus AB/BC or an equivalent course and are comfortable with general knowledge of Calculus I/II. This includes, but of course not limited to, general integration/differentiation proficiency.

Regarding sessions, this series plans to host around two sessions per week. Each session will be hosted on Friday and Sunday at 5:00 p.m. PST. Each session will be hosted for an hour, depending strictly; however, extra time past may be permitted, not obligated, and dependent on learners' and hosts' preferences.

On Sunday, there will be a 'learning' session where the hosts will teach learners topics relevant to our week's points (such points are again listed in the doc linked below). We highly recommend you take notes (handwritten ones), as they will help you immensely with practice problems hosted on Friday.

On Friday, there will be a 'practice' session where we will focus on practice problems concerning topics covered on Sunday. This will serve as an opportunity to clarify and sink in topics, aided by your own notes and collaborative guidance with other learners and hosts.

We will discuss how these will look in our first introductory session on Friday. I wanted to write down a rough idea of our series format in case any learners join the series late.

Through a mix of engaging lectures, collaborative problem-solving, and independent exploration, you’ll build the skills to master Multi-variable Calculus at your own pace. While we may not cover all topics within the time limit, our focus remains on delivering a thorough and enjoyable learning experience.

✋ ATTENDANCE POLICY

Given the relatively short amount of time per session in every accompanying unit, each session is quite comprehensive, and it is highly recommended that you attend every session as they build upon one another.

However, we understand that there are circumstances where you must miss a session, which is why, in our drive, resources and materials are made public for you to catch up independently. Nonetheless, if this case applies to you, please get in touch with a host (and co-host) informing us of your absence. Failure to do so will result in an unexcused absence and could result in a withdrawal if you accumulate at least two of these absences.

Again, communication is key, and registering for this series is taking the first step in trying to learn Multi-Variable Calculus. You must put in the effort, and attending these classes is just one of many steps to ensure a greater understanding.

So yeah, attend, please :).
