Youtube channel Ben tutors math - mostly high-school level, but also includes a brief introductory overview of calculus.

Earlier I mentioned the YouTube channel 3Blue1Brown, which has the following description:

Quote:
My name is Grant Sanderson. Videos here cover a variety of topics in math, or adjacent fields like physics and CS, all with an emphasis on visualizing the core ideas. The goal is to use animation to help elucidate and motivate otherwise tricky topics, and for difficult problems to be made simple with changes in perspective.

The creator also has a website Animated math.

The channel has some playlists, one of which is Essence of Calculus, a good intuitive overview of calculus.

Hmmm, either I posted the wrong link or the channel has completely changed since I posted the link back in December 2023. The link goes to a YouTube channel that is named simply Ben Syverse, and it contains "Documentaries featuring stories from the history of math and science." The oldest of these videos was uploaded on Nov 22, 2023, and all others were uploaded after I posted the link.

The nearest thing to "Ben Tutors Math" that I found just now is another YouTube channel, Ben Maths Tutor, which is not nearly as high quality as the other channel, but some folks might find it helpful.
