Get help with Calculus 12
Most tutoring makes you sit through material you already know. MapleMind flips that: pick the exact skill that's causing trouble — any of the 22 below — and the tutor teaches just that one, step by step, as many times as it takes. Ask questions in plain words, any time of day, in English, French, or 12 other languages.
The official Prince Edward Island Calculus 12 curriculum
Prince Edward Island defines Calculus 12 by strands and outcomes. MapleMind teaches the same curriculum reorganized for one-skill-at-a-time tutoring — the table shows exactly where every official strand lands, and the ministry's own wording is quoted under each unit below.

How MapleMind teaches Calculus 12 — every unit, lesson, and skill
Every skill below runs as a short session: a plain-words lesson, a worked example, solving it together, then a five-question skill check that earns up to three stars. Guided Mode keeps it teaching instead of answer-handing — turning it off needs a parent's password.

Limits, continuity, the derivative and its rules and applications, and the integral and its applications.
Limits and continuity
- Solving problems involving limitsC1 — Evaluate limits, including one-sided limits, numerically, graphically, and algebraically, and solve problems involving them.
- Asymptotic and end behaviourC2 — Use limits to determine the asymptotic and end behaviour of a function.
- ContinuityC3 — Determine whether a function is continuous at a point and classify discontinuities.
The derivative
- The derivative as instantaneous rate of changeC4 — Explore the derivative as the instantaneous rate of change, connecting the slope of a secant to the slope of a tangent.
- The derivative from the definitionC5 — Determine the derivative of a function by applying the limit definition of the derivative.
Differentiation rules
- The basic derivative rulesC6 — Apply the constant, power, constant-multiple, sum, and difference rules to differentiate polynomial functions.
- Product and quotient rulesC6 — Apply the product rule and the quotient rule to differentiate products and quotients of functions.
- Rates of change and motionC7 — Use derivatives to solve problems involving rates of change, including motion problems with position, velocity, and acceleration.
- Derivatives of trigonometric functionsC8 — Find the derivatives of trigonometric functions.
- The chain ruleC9 — Apply the chain rule to differentiate composite functions.
- Inverse trigonometric functionsC10 — Solve problems involving the derivatives of inverse trigonometric functions.
- Exponential and logarithmic functionsC11 — Find the limits and derivatives of exponential and logarithmic functions.
Applications of the derivative
- Analysing a function for its graphC12 — Use the first and second derivatives to determine intervals of increase and decrease, extrema, and concavity of a function.
- Sketching the graph of a functionC12 — Sketch the graph of a function using intercepts, asymptotes, extrema, and concavity found by calculus.
- Setting up an optimization problemC13 — Set up an optimization problem by writing an objective function and a constraint from a described situation.
- Solving an optimization problemC13 — Solve an optimization problem by differentiating the objective function, finding critical points, and confirming the extreme value.
- Linearization and Newton's MethodC14 — Use linearization and Newton's Method to approximate values and roots.
The integral
- The indefinite integralC16 — Determine the indefinite integral of a function as its antiderivative.
- The definite integralC17 — Determine the definite integral of a function using the Fundamental Theorem of Calculus.
- Area between curvesC18 — Use the definite integral to find the area of a region between curves.
- Accumulation and other applicationsC18 — Apply the integral to accumulation problems such as total distance from velocity and net change from a rate.
