You’ve saved me a lot of time. This video is more informative then my Calc professor by several times over and it lasted 5 times less then class.

[@purityngwira423]

Helpful 💓

[@user-xc4yd5qg5x]

I really appreciate how this man shows all of his steps even if it is simple adding and subtracting. It helps me from getting lost.

[@shimaalcarrim7949]

Wow if only my highschool and college teachers were so thoughtful in picking out a helpful variety of examples

[@CameronRomney]

I wish you were my calculus teacher...You really do make math "simple". Thank you!

[@robbicmanzano5416]

Wow this really helped me unlike the others... haha it’s just because, our teacher gives us easy examples to follow during the discussion but when we’re going to look and answer out activity sheet? It is COMPLETELY different

[@nataliavillalobos2201]

Studying for a final exam and I had forgotten how to do these, thank you sir, God Bless

[@Titan88811]

Wow... By far the best video I have found on this. The way you show the colors moving as a way to show where you are getting the numbers from is great and it is super easy to follow. Thank you!

[@maliwanblue]

You are a lifesaver I couldn’t understand this for the longest time but it’s so simple...thank you

[@mayraflores5085]

very helpful, better than any video I have been searching for/watching for hours! thank you!

[@robinq7307]

Dang you just summed up what I was struggling with for two weeks in calculus class in 14 minutes. Thank you so much this video is a godsend. Starting simple then escalating the difficulty really helps grasp what to do and why, in class we just started with the more difficult problems so I was lost on some of the earlier steps.

[@robinq7307]

Update: I just breezed through a problem I was struggling with for a week after watching this video. Thank you!

[@potterhead1013]

Oh my god! I finally understand what to do now. This video is wonderful.

[@SimpleMath]

Great!

[@bradensweatt1170]

Haven’t even started the derivative in my high school calc class and already pretty much know how to do it. This is great.

[@ZeeNoorTrip]

This is called teacher. who teach and let students understand it, not like my university teachers. thank you so much

[@bridgeunwort61]

I was absent when my class was learning about the derivative limit function. I just learned all the tricks, like chain rule, product rule, etc. Now I need to know how to find derivatives with this function years later for a final, so thanks!

[@atlas.8739]

wish I found this video 4 years ago man, saved a whole lot of time! Thanks!

[@anthonyg1111]

Thank you so much this should have more views.

[@shreeyanshmaurya7900]

You are tooooooooooooooooooooooooooo good. I was not able to understand this formula. You helped me understand this in just 14 min and l practiced a lot. I knew the simple formula which is x^n-1. But now l have mastered the concept just because of you. Now l know both the ways of solving these questions.
I want that your channel grows bigger and bigger and a lot of students get inspired by you. You can do anything.....................

[@jonathanbishop6461]

I haven’t done calc in three years... this was easy to follow.

[@pandaindistress4728]

there were some numbers I was struggling with in my calculs book, but thank you because now I know how to solve them :) thank you again

[@manfredcaranci6234]

EXCELLENT! Very clear and straightforward.

[@Engineering_world002]

Ready for the exam, love this

[@carlosgordfgg692]

Thank you so much for this video, you have no idea how much this video actually helped!

[@shamineywalsh-dupuis6520]

So informative and well broken down. Thanks so much

[@petrakamm9007]

Definitely safed my life, thank you so much, I had no idea how to do this before...

[@elisusser9721]

Life saver for my first calc exam this week, u da man!!

[@raphaelsutter2494]

Best simple explanation ever

[@jamesalosi5637]

I found it too easier to work out THANK YOU

[@ryannkohlman5751]

Thank You! This helps a lot! Only if my Professor explained it like this

[@sarweshchandramouli4202]

Thank you soooo much!!! BTW, love the color coding and highlighting!!!

[@anirudhanr5741]

Thanqqq so much sir.... I am preparing for improvement now it was so useful.... This was the topic which i was stuck for 1 year.... Now i have acquired it.... Indian kerala palakkad malayali ❤️

[@ExplosiveRobotics]

11:39 When you're doing calculus and forget a way of doing math you learned in first grade

[@carolynncalin1199]

the best video I've found on this!!

[@ankesh_17]

Thanks for this. Extremly good teacher.

[@johnpeter5270]

Perfect explanation...indeed if you can't explain it to a 2year old its all on nothing..
Thanks sir.God bless you..

[@Shaatha]

The best. Thank you very much

[@dijonstreak]

excellent job !!.. a very clear behind the scenes approach, clarifying a very hard set of rules that YOU simplified and made them EASIER to digest..thank YOU. SO much. for a 5STAR job !!

[@adamrolczyk7217]

Amazing, thank you so much professor! :)

YOU SIR ARE A LIFE SAVER

[@TrilokNegi10]

the video was very helpful in understanding the concept.

[@realABN]

lol watching this at 4 am while having my mid term in 3 hours, What a life saver.

[@38Fanda]

how about the limit of (ln(x)-1)/(x-e)

[@andrewndidde5372]

Really helpful. Was stuck. Thanx a bunch

[@haiboubadam6280]

I finally understand what this equation means. tysm!!!

[@xidigmedia9230]

Thanks so much...you made everything look so simple...

[@SimpleMath]

It really can be!

[@aghasafarzade]

Very good explanation👍🏻

[@sharijames598]

What about f(x)= x^3? Should u do (x^2+h)(x+h) or write out x+h three times and foil?

[@pam5132]

i don’t get why teachers can’t teach it like this! great vid 😭

[@Reem-zx8fg]

Thank u So Much.

[@high5smacker514]

Thanks so much! My parents can’t figure this out and I have to teacher, so this helps a lot!

It's very clear & understood... But where did you get 1 & how come?

[@ashadsouza5052]

Thanku so much buddy you saved my time and cleared my doubt .lots of love bro

[@diy-projects]

thank you so much

[@jesusbermudez6775]

Yes, this was informative. I've seen many videos on derivates, but as yet I do not know why they are called derivates.

[@coryshinn5764]

Would you have to rationalize the denominator in problem #4?

[@sanghyukcho4571]

Very intuitive!

[@harithimran4401]

sir...do u also make vid abt 1st derrivative test,2nd.....,concavity n so on...hope u also teach those topic

[@brinsonwyche9388]

I learned so much thank you

[@rodneyyt-lf4rd]

helped a lot, much appreciated

[@GUCHARVEIS]

Thanks this was very helpful

[@nobody-hb4vi]

10:37 can you simplify this a little further by rationalizing the denominator?

thanx sir so important for me

[@shinahyeji509]

And I actually understood this. But how about the ones with trig functions. 🖒

[@SimpleMath]

Good idea!

[@jordanearl5449]

YOU ARE A GOD SIR TY.

[@eroy5448]

when x has a value of 2 for example, do you still apply the same process?

On the side of my question it says (x=-1) what shoes that mean?

Any notice a pattern of the original equation and the answer

Thank God for this video!!

[@santosalvarez414]

Amen!!!

[@bobbysoumik4626]

Can you explain how and why 'f' is replaced by 3 (or any other constant). As much I know 'f' is the name of a particular function, then how it is replaced?!?! 🙂

i have a doubt about the result of number 4 where does the 2 radical X appear and how?

[@kayo9333]

Thank you so much.......

[@ilsucicek2799]

seriously thank you

[@karpsan2523]

How would you solve for the derivative of x^(2x) using this method? I've thought of doing that just for fun but ended up wasting more than 2 hours with no signs of success.

[@paulsavala]

That's using something called "logarithmic differentiation", which is where you first take log of both sides, and then take the derivative. That's a more advanced topic, and generally tricky to do using the limit definition of the derivative. Good job on trying it though!

[@jonanddy]

I have a quiz in one hour. Thank you!

dude same xD
