Text-like resources
If you find yourself struggling with the course material, there are several options for getting help. These include
- the course notes,
- any standard calculus textbook,
- online resources including sites like MIT's OpenCourseWare.
Face-to-face help
Of course, there are face-to-face options as well including
- your instructor's office hours (see your section's web page) and
- the Math Learning Centre where you can get free tutoring.
Online forum
In addition, the course has
- an online discussion forum where you can ask questions and look at questions asked by your peers. Answers will be posted by your peers, the course TAs and the instructors. In general, the TAs and instructors will respond in a timely manner which might mean during their next office hour so don't expect to get help at the last minute before a midterm or exam.
If these options prove insufficient, you can request contact information for a private tutor from the Math Department office.
