it is hard for everyone, myself included. you all only see the end result after thousands of hours of study on my part... and not all the frustrating moments getting to where i am now

[@gbaker1a775]

I needed to hear that, thank you.

[@NaledzaniTshifhesi-hm9fy]

How many hours do you work? Do you ever sleep?

[@creativemoments5792]

Not for me

[@Eldbomb]

What a beautiful time of year when all the panicking calculus students flock to your page for finals. Thanks so much!

[@mariapumba120]

You’re a vibe!!🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@mialane5019]

Yep, 2021 finals here :,)

[@sedlyf1745]

We made it to 2023 😙

[@milkaddiction513]

It's 2024 finals

[@charliehoskin6283]

Congratulations, you may be the first and only lefty to do an entire problem on white board without smearing any of it. From one lefty to another, props.

[@gta4everrr]

I always have to write awkwardly when i get to the middle of the white board to prevent smearing.

[@VeritasEtAequitas]

Then learn to write correctly... To write right, if you will.

[@charliehoskin6283]

Uncomfortable Truth i don’t know the left just feels better and more justified to me

[@jennabaer8117]

My college tuition should be going to you...not my current calc prof

[@mahaiminhassan1960]

ikr why pay the prof that isnt doing any benefit

[@___llvm]

fuckingggggggg TRUE

[@JBeeeST]

Im crying right now,.. excuse me ,.. but you are awesome. Thank You sir!!!

[@patrickjmt]

happy to help!

[@katherinemurcia9302]

patrickJMT I spent an hour looking for an explanation of this before I saw your video! Thanks!

[@_MARS_]

"WELL NOT NOT LAZY!, JUST CLEVER!!!" lol...very true

[@midnightpanda]

You've become a integral part of my math experience.

[@mikeahmed7092]

Explained excellently. One thing i really admire about your videos is that you break it down step by step.

[@jerboajelly]

you are at the forefront of making practical FREE EDUCATION works! i am going to study physics this year and i am re-capping my math by simply watching your videos. you are indeed a very good teacher and i love the way you teach. very clear, easy to understand and tangible. thanks a lot for your effort and time! i appreciate it

[@Ahunty23]

Between your calming voice and the complected examples you make learning this stuff so easy.

[@mexiangel1994]

I have to say, I have been watching your videos since I am prepping for my college final in calc and you've helped a lot, especially with this integral stuff.lol thank you

[@Evatar7]

Oh my god, you are one of the only people I could find who actually demonstrates this in a way I understand. You have my gratitude.

[@RJeditors]

never knew that limit trick where you got lazy i like lazy this is good

[@chueneelvin2696]

Your explanations are vivid and clear as crystal

[@janetsawari1677]

Wow!! woke up at 2 am to watch this and it paid off, Thank You Patrick you just make Math easier :)

[@meditationtube7572]

best explanation for Riemann sums~!!! was stuck all day yesterday until i came across your videos and clarified everything in seconds...thank you

[@js6431]

Cool, calm and clear. Why can't lecturers see this? :) Thanks for this. I missed the first three days of my lectures for calculus, flu does not play nice, but thankfully clued up now.

[@BiNgObOy96]

You the real mvp.

[@BlueSharkRides]

This is the 4th math class I'm in that I've used your videos. Got a test tomorrow and this type of question confused me. Thanks for being the absolute best on KZbin, I wish I could have you as a professor!

[@davidrogers6645]

I cannot thank you enough. You have once again saved my calculus grade. I take courses online so I pretty much have to teach myself. When I get stuck I always turn to your channel for the help I need. Absolutely the best!!!!

[@orbaku4039]

Thank you very much for the help. My high school Calculus teacher doesn't really teach how to do a problem, he just does it on the board and then gives us homework. I've tried reading the book too and I can't seem to make sense of it but you finally actually TAUGHT me how to do it. So I say again: thank you so much. :)

[@almaanides9127]

being able to understand this makes me feel like a badass- thank you for your step by step explanation! 🤗

[@GC-we6kd]

Great teacher !!! preparing for my final exam in less than 7 hours hahaha

[@profusion7148]

Late response, but did you do well on the exam ?

[@GC-we6kd]

yea i did okay !

[@profusion7148]

nice

[@alrijini301]

More like 30 mins before the test 😅

[@Bllksem]

hahaha mines more than 3 weeks away :/

[@curiouslygeorgeous]

You're a life-saver. There is no way I would have gotten this correct by just following my textbook. Thank you for breaking it all down!

[@JakeOfAllTrades17]

What I like about these videos is that you teach very linear, like it should be. My teacher does not even say the NAME of the topic we are doing or why it's important, he just shows us math and how to solve it... We're learning solids of revolution in Calculus and he hasn't once mentioned that name lol

[@johnnyissuper6955]

thanks so much. youtube keeps giving me snarky annoying ads condescendingly asking me "are the videos from 2006 REALLY HELPING?" But guess what, this 2009 video is one of the best tutorial there ever was, even now in 2024. Thank you!

[@PulseEyeBlu]

Hella helped me out! Didn't quite grasp this until I followed along with your steps; thank you!

[@eoterm]

I been trying to understand this for the longest time, and now its all clear, thanks!

[@tndas1493]

Much appreciated! I'm in Math 221 (Calc 1) at UW Madison and my professor glossed over this and we were stuck not knowing how to do it. Thanks a ton!

[@farazromani]

Dude, you freak'n rock! Love your tutorials. They're so clear and simple. I wish you were my Calc 2 professor!

[@ddw34]

Have been subscribed since high school and your still helping me out, thanks.

[@mikemai8568]

Thank you for taking time to broke down the equation step-by-step. It was long and confused process, but you made it simple and understandable. Thumbs up!

[@purrpkp]

Amazing, worked for hours and never came to understand this at all, now after watching the video I think I've got it, Thanks!

[@mocha_bear00]

dude, thanks a lot. I have an exam 4 hours later and you make me understand this in 10 minutes

[@windskipops]

I feel like i've wasted so much time trying to understand these problems... seriously, just watching 15 minutes of video and it makes crystal clear sense... simply amazing.

[@chris7toronto]

Patrick, thank you so much for your help. Yet again you explained it thoroughly, and clearly!

[@ehatipo4598]

Thank you Patrick, you're explaining the cleanest on KZbin. Hope to see you soon in more livestreams of chess events!:)

[@Theeblackyeagerist]

You've turn something I just saw as pure gibberish into a problems I can do with ease! God Bless you and Thank you! :)

[@AzatDzhanybekov]

Good Job Patrick. After 7 years Your instructions are still helpful.

[@ssacchi1]

Definitely a new way to do Riemann problems. Very interesting and well-explained. Good work

[@kebertxela22000]

Wow, thank you so much for taking the time to explain this very thoroughly concisely! I was having such a hard time with this!!

[@vietgirl25]

Finals week, lovin' it. Thanks Pat.

[@RayRay-fq4wc]

Did this in my calc class...the prof messes up every time has to be corrected by students. Was beyond confused but makes sense now. You're amazing.

[@Cuzipwnlikethat]

Amazingly clear. I have a test tomorrow and you helped me realize that I've been doing Riemann Sums horribly wrong. Thank you for clarifying, I greatly appreciate the not C that I will achieve with your teaching. :)

[@EdwinWilliamsIsHappy]

Awesome video man. This really helps me for my AP Calc AB class.

[@joelmike46]

Didn't really understand the way this was taught in class, and you cleared it up so quickly. Thanks a ton!

[@TheBassEnthusiast]

Our class wasn't taught Riemann Sums in class to the point where we were comfortable, and I have a test this morning where one of these calculations is present. I now understand them thoroughly enough to navigate through a Riemann problem, and I appreciate your help in doing so. Thankfully I found the video just before the test this morning, we'll see how it goes! Best regards, B

[@aztecatenocx]

You just made my day. You explained this very clearly and explained how you did certain parts. Wish you were my instructor

[@ethannichols5672]

Thank you for explaining this. My professor was kinda vague when she taught us this. I couldn't understand how everything plugged in and worked together, but now I do. This video helped me out a lot!

[@patrickjmt]

@Zyntle well, i would say most people find it a bit tricky the first time they see it. just a lot of formulas and little details to remember.

[@radificationnation]

Thank you! You helped me get through both Pre-Calc and Calc. I wish I found your videos when I was in Algebra II!

[@yogotah]

Not going to lie, I love watching your videos. You don't go too fast, but you also don't go too slow either. Perfect combination, I have a good calc teacher actually, but my class is so distracting we can't get anything done, glad to have you as back up. YOU and Khan of course.

[@samlittle510]

Thank you! You have a real gift when it comes to teaching.

[@nafslee]

i have learnt so much from you in these 2 vids than i have in my lectures.. thanks

[@patrickjmt]

happy to help!

[@MindSynth2050]

love you man for real. you make math enjoyable

[@niallcello]

thanks for this video. the concept really clicked after watching it. your explanation is very thorough and clear.

[@dendidan77]

you helped me and many people a lot ,thank you for existing bro

[@dgizowski]

Thx so much. I'm taking my calc course "online" and am really left with just my brain and my textbook. I've loved your videos that seem to simply explain what looks like greek (literally) in the book.

[@apongnwufopenawoh8910]

thank you so much sir...i'm in college now and the professor is so fast, but i understand you perfectly. this was very very helpful! (now i can breathe)...God bless!

[@futuristcorporation]

Thank you so much for creating this video. Self-learner here so I do not have a professor I can go ask. These two videos clarified a lot of things that I just was not getting from reading Stewart over and over.

[@bevzeley]

You are a genius. You deserve a medal! Omg, thank you!!

[@thatchickslara]

Thanks for these kinds of videos. They really help :D

[@mmoser2010]

you got me an A in calculus 1 and im moving on to calculus 2! thanks for all your videos

[@dkscidmore]

Been trying to figure out the limits with summation for almost 2 weeks and was about to give up. Thanks for the video.

[@LEE15370]

Maths is fun, but you make it funner and "whatever word that rhymes with funner that is funner" I love the way you teach!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@parmida1988]

I LOVE the way you teach! it's super clear and I understand everything! THANK YOU FOR ALL OF YOUR VIDEOS AND YOUR TIME!

[@mjfreestyler9126]

now what are you studying

[@astonmartin0810]

wow Patrick, you are absolutely amazing. After going to my Calculus lecture, I still had no idea how to do a few things. You're videos have helped my understanding with pretty much everything in calculus. lol

[@powerbrea27th]

yo Patrick you just help me out men i subscribed to you and this is best decision i have made you have really help me understand this stuff better. May you live long

[@TheYourfaceable]

Absolutely perfect man. I have a calculus final coming up, and riemann sums were something we did at the beginning of the year, and my instructor spent about 2 class sessions on it, so needless to say, I had no idea what I was doing. Your video did a great job to explain just what I needed to know so, thank you!

[@joecamroberon9322]

TheYourfaceable lol my professor spent 30 minutes on Riemann sums.

[@bepotts]

@patrickJMT Thank you for your hard work. You have single handley brought my "C" in Calculus, to a solid "A". When I get lost in Calc class, I just say to myself, " okay, let me learn as much now, then go back to my room and see if patrickJMT has a video on it." Thank you so much!!! We appreciate you! - The internet

[@wabs999]

a whole week in class and couldnt understand this rule , yet i understood here ... thank you so much :)

[@ForKnitsandGiggles]

thank you sooo much! prepping for a midterm and this really helped clarify a lot! I totally owe you haha

[@TheEnglishRogue]

wow. i spent two hours today trying to figure this concept out. After 10 min of watching your video, I got the right answers. Thank you

[@jillm42]

This got me through a brutal question on my Calculus final! THANK YOU!

[@MusicalRoadshow]

Thanks man, I'd be lost without your videos. There's things I do understand but i get stuck most of the time. I'm a senior in high school who went from Trig to Calc BC so I struggle with it alot but thanks to you I have a B in the class thank you so much!!!

[@patrickjmt]

@TheOnlyBERT67 no problem, happy to help

[@zh333na]

ur awesome! made my life much easier. spent my day readin the book and didnt get any out of it. i do your example and i learn right away. thanksss so much& i hope u know how much time u saved me

[@patrickjmt]

@Nedorostok glad i could help you : ) come back any time

[@xrockerchick4lifex]

Omg you are amazing! I spent an hour trying to figure this out on my own, but I got it watching your video in 5mins! Thanks soo much!

[@thisismatt3]

Thank you for these videos. Because of watching them I feel more prepared for my final.

[@Ammoniummetavanadate]

All I have to say is that it is 3am, my assignment is due in 5 hours, I did not get the question at all, and then I watched this video. In short I love you.

[@octaviarolle9820]

I just cried. This video was a life saver!!!!!! Thankyou soooo much!

[@perryleigh9028]

Thank-you This made so much more sense than when my math professor was teaching it.

[@ash1soccer]

Thank you for this. I am in highschool, and I am taking Calc 1 and Calc 2 this summer. Because I am taking them online I am not able to ask the professors any questions. I understand derivatives, indefinite integrals and antiderivatives conceptually and mathematical. However, I haven't been able to understand how to obtain a definite integral mathematically without using the shortcuts. This has really helped me, so thank you very much!! :)

[@wesrightnow]

Thank you for posting this, you're a life saver dudeman!

[@manda1shorty]

Thanks so much the video helped a lot thanks for taken the time to post this

[@patrickjmt]

@naytus thank ya

[@crisyt8r]

[@dual85]

you have no idea how much I appreciate this : )

[@allanahk56]

You are a legend. Super helpful for my exam in 3 hours!

[@anglephuongtrang1889]

I am so grateful for your video. It is easier for me to study Calculus 1 right now .

[@Ebacho]

Amazing stuff, thanks man!! You just made my day!!

[@tckelly38]

"I'm not lazy... just clever." my new go to phrase!

[@linabear55]

you are so great. these videos are getting me through university calculus haha

[@gull9391]

Thank you so much ❣️🥰 sir. When frustrated my calculas problems I saw your video really help full

[@josephtanaya]

very nicely explained! good job!

[@patrickjmt]

glad i could help :)

[@PoNdWaT3r]

This helped me so much in preparation for my Calculus test tomorrow!!
