My high school ds has struggled with math all along. He did Algebra 1&2, but probably didn't apply himself as he should have. Then he did Khan Academy on-line. Still, the basic algebra concepts have not "stuck." He agrees that he needs lots more reinforcement. Does anyone have a suggestion as to a website or computer disk that would have LOADS of problems on it with immediate feedback if he gets the problem incorrect? Thanks! |

http://www.softschools.com/math/algebra/ Can't attest to the quality of (I am no mathematician, and have not checked it out) but Softschools does at least have Algebra on it. |

One possibility is, he just is a late bloomer in this area of math. My brain truly was not yet wired for it until I turned 30. Up until that time, I tried and tried, sought help and finally let it go, thinking I was a hopeless case. Then around 30, it started making sense. Now, I'd have to go back and redo, to remember it all, but nothing I did before my brain was ready enabled me to truly learn it. I just memorised and prayed my way through tests. |

I hear Teaching Textbooks came out with a new addition, and really changed how they are doing things. |

http://www.math.com/homeworkhelp/Algebra.html This one looks pretty nice - more serious, but has the immediate feedback you wanted. |
