Series Details

About

From the abstract theory to effortless applications, this series will be an overview to everything a student will encounter in a Calculus BC class. 
﻿
Not only will students know the simple tricks to integrals and derivatives, the tutors will also explain the proofs and allow students to understand the WHY in the realm of Calculus. 
﻿
We will go over all the necessary topics in a typical calculus class - from simple derivatives all the way to Taylor Series and understanding advanced polar graphs. 
﻿
There will be multiple tutors hosting this series to ensure that all students understand the content thoroughly. 
﻿
All tutors are REQUIRED to have at least a 5 on the AP Calculus BC test, to best ensure the quality of the bootcamp. 
﻿
With the high quality of the bootcamp, students are required to attend every single session. If a student misses more than 2 sessions without prior notice, they will be booted for taking up a valuable spot of the series. 
﻿
To take the most out of the course, students should have a prerequisite of at least a precalculus or Algebra 2 class. 
﻿
Spots are LIMITED - only the first 15 people may sign up. 
﻿
First come, first serve. 

✋ ATTENDANCE POLICY

Do not miss more than two sessions without messaging one of the tutors.

Students will be booted for taking up a valuable spot after missing too many sessions.

About the Tutors

I have a passion for learning and helping others achieve their academic goals. My self-study of AP Chemistry has granted me a thorough understanding of learning lots of material on my own, and I'm an active participant in the US National Chemistry Olympiad (USNCO) to continually enhance my knowledge. I have a diverse skill set that includes programming proficiency in Java and Python. I enjoy breaking down complex concepts and making them understandable for students. Additionally, I prioritize my health and consistently exercise through calisthenics and gym routines. Feel free to talk to me and contact me if you need any help!
