The Best Online Calculus Courses

Some of the best online calculus courses available on the internet include the courses offered via MITOpenCourseware, edX, and other MOOCs. Unfortunately, these MOOC courses are kind of like library books - while they explain the material in an excellent manner, you cannot tell another school or employer or graduate school that you read a good Calculus book at the library, and that should count for your calculus credits that you need for your degree program.

At Distance Calculus we believe that the more resources available online to help students learn, the better!

Distance Calculus @ Roger Williams University offers a number of options that may be beneficial to you in searching for an online calculus program to earn your calculus credits:
  • Flexible enrollment - enroll today, start today. Few online programs offer this flexibility.
  • Finish as quickly as your skills allow - many online programs make you follow a traditional academic calendar
  • Asynchronous - no fixed meeting times - many online programs want you to participate in "group discussions" at certain times of the week.
  • Computer Algebra curriculum instead of "multiple choice publisher course systems"

Distance Calculus - Student Reviews

Courses Completed: Applied Calculus
I found out from my grad school after being accepted that I needed a Calculus course before starting their MBA program. I had less than 6 weeks to do it (and as a non-STEM undergrad no less). The video lectures were informative, the pre-calc refresher was great to get re-conditioned, and the asynchronous format worked so well as I did this at night/weekends after work. I completed it in 4 weeks. Professor Curtis was extremely responsive, graded assignments quickly, and a supportive guide providing constructive feedback to me to excel at the assignments. I highly recommend this course for those who need a pre-req in a hurry or like learning on their own schedule. Thanks, Distance Calculus and Professor Curtis!

This course was more affordable than many, and the flexible format was terrific for me, as I am inclined to work very diligently on tasks on my own. It could be dangerous for a person who requires external discipline more, but it works well for self-starters, allowing you to prioritize when you have other pressing work. I was a full time teacher adding a math certification, and this course allowed me to master the math while working around my teaching schedule and fitting work into moments here and there when I had time. I was able to transfer the credits to Montana State University, Bozeman for my teaching internship program without a hitch. The instructors were all very helpful and patient, even when I failed to see a ridiculously simple solution on one problem after 20 emails back and forth. Overall, I was more pleased with my experience in this class than I was with any of my other 9 courses.

Distance Calculus was a life saver! I needed an accredited program to complete multi-variable calculus for grad school and at the time was an American living in England. Being able to take the course on my own timeline, from my own home, was amazing! The content was thorough and the visualization exercises were very helpful for comprehension and understanding. This was an exceptionally, affordable, thorough, and convenient course that I found a lot of value in and I’m thankful it was available to me!

The courses were excellent. Very flexible and engaging and the platform offers a lot of upper-level courses. Dr. Curtis is an outstanding professor and very responsive. I would take again.

Courses Completed: Calculus I
After two failed attempts at my university, this course helped me understand Calculus. The live maths tool along with Dr. Curtis were especially helpful, allowing me to visualize concepts and expand my understanding. The explanations were clear, the examples practical, and I could learn at my own pace, which built my confidence. Thank you.
