The video tutorial explains the Fibonacci sequence as a recursive sequence, where each term is the sum of the two preceding ones. It contrasts this with a general recursive sequence, which adds a constant difference to each term. The video clarifies common misconceptions about the Fibonacci sequence and demonstrates how to calculate specific terms using its unique recursive rule. The tutorial concludes by calculating the 9th and 10th terms of the Fibonacci sequence.
