I have learnt to think outside the box when faced with challenging problems. I have learnt to see different ways to solve problems both in an assessment and in real life. You have taught me to find the easiest and simplest way to solve a problem and I will remember this in my future studies. I will always remember my Sundays with you.' .....

This book is the product of my decades of experience in teaching high school mathematics. Over this time I have taught thousands of students and watched their reactions to different teaching styles and materials. I have found that most of the text books available are inadequate. Most lack clear, simple explanations and full working, and there are too few diagrams, so I decided to write my own text book. By giving students fully worked examples they will understand how each is solved, and be able to pass their examinations with ease. This edition is aimed at:

Apply Calculus Methods in Solving Problems

External achievement standard 91262

Humans work best visually, so I have provided many diagrams which will help students understand the principles better.

The format for each section is:

A simple explanation

A worked example

Exercises

Fully worked answers

 

Some comments from my students:

At first I didn't know how to do the sample exam question, but then I looked in your book, and I could see how to do it!

"This book is easy to understand"

"The explanations are very clear"

"I like the graphs - they help me understand Calculus"

"The QR codes give me access to fuller explanations"

"It's only February, and I feel that I'm ready to sit the exam right now"
