Khan Academy for Mathematics and more

Having trouble with something you learned in school? Try the Khan Academy and watch a short video on the topic you need. You can watch it as much as you need. The best part though would be to watch it once and then work through the example watching again or on your own. It is always best to try the problem and not to rely on just hearing or watching.

The best way to use the material presented is right after you have had it in class. Then the material will be reinforced for you and you won't be as likely to forget it when test time comes. The best way to learn to do math is to DO IT. Work all the problems that you can.
