OK, so, I haven’t taken a math class since AP Calculus in 2008-9. I used to be good at math (got a 5 on the exam), but I feel very rusty. Would love to get back up to speed on calculus someday, because I remember it feeling a bit like magic. What are good resources to do so?

@joshuapsteele David Berlinski's A Tour of the Calculus is a really wonderful book -- a philosophical meditation with exercises, though, not a straightforward teaching tool.

@joshuapsteele My eldest did AP Calc last year. Do you still have access to your old textbooks? There are frequent times that I’ve wished I kept old textbooks.

@joshuapsteele Khan Academy or MIT free courses depending on how rusty you actually are.

@joshuapsteele I recommend 3 Blue 1 Brown on YouTube, who is really good at explaining math concepts. He has a great Linear Algebra series but I don’t know if he specifically has calculus videos.
