   Calculus is good for figuring out the volume of fluid in a tank or pool.   
      
   My kids learned the essence of calculus differently than we did.   
   Mine learned it from YouTube.   
   Not because they wanted to.   
   But because I made them.   
   And YouTube was how.   
      
   You can find a million "formulaic" Calculus videos which "teach" calculus   
   the way we learned it which was just a series of rules to the game (none of   
   which made any sense to me but which only arrived at the correct answer).

   If you add "+3Blue1Brown" to that search, you get real learning, IMHO.

   I recommend something like this to get back up to speed on calculus.
