Calculus - The limit of a function

This video covers the limit of a function. The focus is on the behavior of a function and what it is approaching. Remember this is not the same as where the function actually ends up. Watch for an example of this.

This video is related to many other topics. Check them out.

Finally someone that explains this clearly and concise. Not even Khan Academy does it this way.

I am a high school math teacher who is teaching from home due to school closings. This video is the perfect introduction to limits for my students. It is concise, professional, and will help them to understand the concept of approaching, not reaching. Thank you.

I was able to get As in cal 1, 2, and 3 without truly thinking about what a limit was. We need more teachers like you who prioritize the concept and understanding

I just had a 2 hour class about this and these 5 mins are what explained it to me. Wow

OH MAN THANKS A LOT! I have been using limits for a while now and I didn't get what exactly they are until I watched this video. Thanks, everything that I have learned with limits makes so much sense now.

Finally, a video that actually facilitates understanding of the concept. Thank you!

YES! after watching more than 10 vids, I finally understand what is a limit. this is the perfect introduction to limits. I hate how the textbook defines this lesson. It's like they just wrote how the formula is read without making the students understand what it actually is. YOUR EXPLANATION IS REALLY A BLESSING TO US STUDENTS.

U did a good job by answering why we cant plug 2 directly in the function. Something that I didn't see in many other videos I watched about limits.

One can recommend to first see this *WONDERFUL VIDEO* before watching other normal stuffs for their syllabus

[Spartans-community]

[calebcantrell]

You're a GOAT in learning concepts to others

[thomcat]

Amazing example. I've never been able to have it explained to me like this before. This is what teaching is about!

[FunnyAnimatorJimTV]

Best video on limits I've found so far. Thank you so much! I'll be suggesting this to my friends! :D

[afifassihab]

[petersen]

4 years later and this still saving college students, you are highly appreciated sir!

Every time I want to refresh my memory on limits, this is where I _always_ head (and I actually reach it😂)

[johnkaminsky]

This has to be the best explanation for limits on the net. Excellent series of videos!!

I don't know why people are complicating things, you made me understand thanks.
