Robert’s Answer

If you have the dedication, you can "take" real MIT courses online for free through the MIT Open Courseware initiative. They also have textbooks and other resources. See
https://ocw.mit.edu/pages/get-started/
for more information. The courses are challenging but much of the teaching is excellent.

I would recommend checking out Paul's Online Math Notes to find lectures on Calculus. Khan Academy is also a great resource for math/engineering/physics topics.

There are free online textbooks in STEM disciplines. Take a look at OpenStax (https://openstax.org/subjects). You should see many good textbooks in mathematics, one in physics. It should be a good starting point.
