About
In this session, we will be covering the foundational concept of the derivative, starting with its formal definition using limits to understand how it represents the instantaneous rate of change. From there, we’ll move into basic differentiation techniques, including the power rule, sum and difference rules, and introduce the product and quotient rules.
I will be hosting subsequent sessions for new Calculus topics, so check those out if interested! I received a 5 on the AP test, and hopefully will lead you to do the same.

We will be covering the foundational concept of the derivative, starting with its formal definition using limits to understand how it represents the instantaneous rate of change. We'll explore how derivatives relate to the slope of tangent lines and discuss differentiability in connection with continuity.
