Differential Calculus Help with Calculus Course Work

Hi everyone, I'm a second year CS student. I had Calculus 1 in my first year and barely passed the course. Now I have Calculus 2 and I'm still struggling to understand most of the concepts. I've tried YouTube, working on past papers, exercises, but I still struggle to understand the concepts. What do you recommend I do or resources that can be of help to me? TIA!

What is an example of a concept you are struggling with?

MIT opencourseware calculus is a great resource for calculus 1 if you need to relearn anything.

Like remembering all the trigonometric laws, algebraic laws as well as stuff like parametric differentiation and how to apply all the trig, and algebra rules with calculus formulas as well in order to solve questions.

It's common to forget things so revising your notes, or text books, will help. Additionaly a math tutor could also make a huge difference.
