A lot of you probably know these sites, but whatever

Some Integration Exercises (great fun)

Youtube:
MathTV's playlists include Derivatives, Integrals and Sequences as well as other videos. Examples given are easy but explanations are brilliant
http://www.youtube.com/user/MathTV
I found this video very useful for graphing trig: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s_NI50p-pcg

Khanacademy makes lots of videos about math and physics! The presentation may feel a bit sloppy but explanations are also great.
http://www.youtube.com/user/khanacademy

Donylee makes math and physics vids, a lot of it is advanced stuff, but some calculus is still relevant and it might be more useful for uni math'ers
