I blame shitty recommendation system of Youtube for not making it easily available. They have high engagement sections like Gaming etc but not Education. Just goes on to show their priorities.

They could reccomend calculus videos all day long, people will ignore them and watch the stuff they find entertaining. Its not YouTube's job to rush behaviours down users throats. If they want to learn calculus, its there.

Well if there can be a dedicated google scholar, why not the same for education. In the mobile, when one clicks on the compass icon, I get suggestions for gaming but not the same education. This is hypocrisy.
