About
In this series, we will review core calculus topics such as limits, derivatives, and integrals, and work through representative examples. Sessions will focus on problem-solving strategies and preparing learners for the AP Calculus exam. Learners are encouraged to ask questions and actively work through problems together.
✋ ATTENDANCE POLICY
Please message the tutor if you cannot make a session. Regular attendence is encouraged so that learners can keep up with the material and understand the topic better.
