I am looking for a good online video resource to start studying Calculus. I am studying it alone, not part of any school or university. Trying to learn and enhance my mathematical skills. Thanks!

This is not really a Mathematica question, or are you looking for a calculus video with Mathematica as tool? – ruebenko Sep 6 '12 at 6:45
I'm sorry if this is not the appropriate place. I wish to study mathematics. I was under the impression a math forum would be a good place to consult. I am not sure what it means 'a calculus video with Mathematica as tool' – vondip Sep 6 '12 at 6:48

Appreciate your effort, me too doing it alone, keep in touch. I feel MIT lectures should be good, but nothing can replace books :) – Vikram Oct 6 '12 at 4:41

I would suggest the following: http://ocw.mit.edu/courses/mathematics/18-01-single-variable-calculus-fall-2006/video-lectures/

I learned a lot from these lectures (not the ones in the link but the multivariable calculus ones) but these are just as good!

The Kahn Academy has many mathematics video courses.

You may find Adrian Banner's Calculus Lifesaver course useful. The series of 24+ videos are available at http://press.princeton.edu/video/banner/ and are also provided on the iTunes Store as Podcasts. The quality of the videos is variable, but the exposition is thorough, and his style is engaging.

The web site www.academicearth.org has a wide variety of entire courses in mathematics, especially in calculus (Not to mention history, philosophy, psychology, etc.). It's one of my favorite sites!

I found this I myself used Tom Apostol's Calculus volume 1.(I am not really an expert ) [MIT Open courseware]

Lectures from a calculus course taught by Edward Frenkel at UC Berkeley are available here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cw6pHhjhKmk.

I studies Single variable calculus from Thomas Finney and currently doing Multi-variable calculus from Kenneth Kuttler.

NOTE: In Video lecture for Multi-variable Calculus by Edward Frenkel of UC berkeley, in the first lecture he is referring to an equation (function y=f(x)) and he says that there are 2 "independent" variables and 1 equation, so number of independent variables minus number of equations gives us the dimension.

Gilbert Strang's Highlights of Calculus videos are probably good.
