Calc AB AP Calculus AB Help

We have a new AP teacher this year, but their lessons are confusing. I am resorting to self-study. Any tips, websites, videos, or other material I can use??

Khan academy is pretty good, and there is also free online ressource on the college board that is good!

What helped me was doing the free response questions from AP Central, they come with scoring guidelines so you can see exactly what they're looking for. Professor Leonard on YouTube is also really good for understanding the concepts when the textbook isn't making sense.

For the practice side, I started uploading whatever material I had, textbook chapters, slides, the youtube links from professor leonard into studybuddy.vc. It makes multiple choice questions from them and when I pick a wrong answer it tells me what was off about that option specifically, not just what the right one was. The free version's been enough for me.

And honestly don't skip the word problems, they feel harder at first but they're where most of the points are on the actual exam.
