Mr. Sutton Presents... AP Calculus BC

Mr. Sutton Presents... AP Calculus BC

Let's cut out the fluffy description and get right to the point.  You are looking for a convenient, self-paced way to learn some quality mathematics.  You want a teacher who speaks, writes and explains clearly and without rambling in his videos.  You want lots of practice problems with answers you can look up.  You want to pay as little as possible for all this!

Here is what all of my courses offer:

• Clear, concise videos that get to the point quickly with just enough "back story" to provide context, just enough "application" to spice it up, and carefully chosen examples to model the process.

• PDF versions of each lesson if you get sick of my voice or want to look back without hunting through the video.  All lessons were recorded with PowerPoint slides, so you don't have to decipher my handwriting.

• A printable guided notes handout allowing you to fill-in-the-blanks while you watch each lesson.  Very helpful if you learn better by writing things down but want to avoid needless rewriting or a disorganized jumble!

• 2-4 practice problem sets per lesson, including printable handouts AND both PDF and video solutions of every single practice problem -- an extra 20-30 hours of video content!

• End-of-chapter practice quizzes (with handouts and PDF/video solutions) to review multiple concepts at once.
