"It's like having a tutor right next to you —
he explains everything in clear detail."
Very popular math videos
Do you find math confusing? Need some clear and easy to understand explanations?
Jason Gibson's math videos are a roaring success and I recommend them to you. Go to MathTutorDVD to see what's on offer. Watch some free samples so you get an idea what they are like.
Gibson has a strong academic background but his explanations are easy to follow. The lessons are straightforward, with every step explained in great detail.
The videos are deliberately simple — no bells and whistles here. Gibson stands in front of a basic whiteboard in t-shirt and jeans. This guy’s no stuffy math professor.
Well-qualified Instructor
Gibson has a Bachelor of Science in Electrical Engineering from the University of Houston, a Masters of Science in Electrical Engineering, and a Masters of Science in Physics.
He worked for Texas instruments and NASA.

Sample video: Physics
Here's asample from one of the physics videos, where Gibson shows how to solve a Simple Harmonic Motion problem, involving period, frequency and amplitude:
Many students get lost in the Simple Harmonic Motion topic. These videos would be very useful as an introduction (before your teacher covers it) or as revision.
Another one of the physics videos is Introduction To Torque (please be patient - it takes a while to load).
Gibson uses examples of opening a door and using a wrench on a bolt.
He points out clearly that the force must be perpendicular to the wrench for the equation τ = rF (where τ is the torque, r is the length of the wrench and F is the force perpendicular to the wrench.
Testimonials
There are many positive testimonials about these videos from satisfied customers. For example:
You have a serious teaching gift.
Proof is, I’m watching your DVDs when I would normally be out and about. Never thought I could learn math. I’m blasting straight through to calculus and then physics. I really enjoy this, and am thinking about a career change. Great job!!!
D. Smith
Great for adults, too:
I panicked as it’s been over 10 years since I last studied math and over 20 years since I’ve looked at any physics book. I was extremely lucky to come across MathTutor DVDs, which in very short time allowed me to come up to speed in 3 areas: trigonometry, physics, and calculus.

This comment on the MathTutorDvDs is from Amazon.com
These DVD’s are simple, direct and to the point. They are refreshingly useful and have helped me to learn math concepts I had hurried over in the past or had forgotten. This isn’t bells and whistles, it is the fundamental nuts and bolts of the math that YOU NEED to solve problems from other textbooks.
I ordered the DVD for the library and now recommend it for others whenever I am asked for a good math resource.
JaredMonk, public librarian
There are some very helpful videos here, much cheaper than having your own private tutor.
Large Range of Topics Covered in the Math Videos
The videos cover a large range of topics from pre-algebra to advanced calculus. There are even some physics lessons available as well. Some of the math topics covered (in separate DVDs) include:
- Basic Math
- Word Problems
- Pre-Algebra
- Algebra
- Advanced Algebra
- Matrix Algebra
- Geometry
- Trigonometry
- Pre-Calculus
- Calculus
- Advanced Calculus
- Unit Conversions
- Probability and Statistics
- Physics (Newtonian Mechanics, Thermodynamics)
Very Reasonable Cost
The MathTutorDVD videos come at a very fair price. Most courses cost less than $30 (that's for 6 to 8 hours of instruction - less than $5 per hour) and there are bundles available that bring the cost down even more. You can't get a live tutor for that kind of money!
