Addition, Subtraction, Multiplication, Division
very basic algebra

Description

I have NEVER believed in simply memorizing things. Your greatest asset in life is time. If you study something, you invest your time in it. If you memorize it, soon you will forget it - that is not a great investment. But if you truly understand something, that stays with you for good - it can serve you for a long time.

This course will give you strong intuition and understanding in Calculus, and you will be trained to apply it in real life. It will stay in your head for good - this is a GREAT investment! Watch some of my free preview videos, enroll in my course, and I will make Calculus second nature to you - that is a promise!

These are the topics that the course covers:

Single variable functions
Trigonometric functions
Multidimensional functions
Limits
Derivatives - single variable
Vectors
Transformations
Parametric Equations
Multivariable Calculus
Single variable integrals
Multivariable integrals
Calculus in Control Engineering (PID controller & magnetic train simulation)
Introduction to Differential Equations
Extra Wisdom - waves in time and frequency domain

Most sections contain a small number of free preview videos for you to check out.

Good luck!

I don't leave a 5-star rating before completing a course; This was the course I was searching for months — 35 hours of premium content. Just as I expected, apart from the course, the course instructor is amiable and kind, I will purchase if he creates a few more courses in the future. Top-notch Delivery, People like him could change the old ways of the education system. I recommend this course to everyone.

The Mission: to elevate humanity's knowledge, skills and love for science & engineering

I think that online education is the future because of one single fact - it is easily scalable. One course of a single great teacher can reach millions of people and potentially transform their lives. If education is more scalable, it will be more affordable. More affordable and accessible education will give more people an opportunity to stay out of poverty and create a great life for themselves.

I am here to contribute to this movement.
