What are your favorite algebra resources?
#1
So I'm just about done with algebra 1 and I'm moving on to algebra 2 sometime soon (hopefully!), but I'm really struggling with the final skills. What resources (OTHER than Khan Academy, that's my "testing" curriculum to make sure I've got the concepts down) do you guys use and recommend to study math, especially algebra?

Thanks for your help!

I had a favorite, unfortunately it is no longer free.

What about the textbook companion website for practice tests, games, etc. Sometimes you have to go back a few editions as the publishers have begun to charge for absolutely everything. Example:
Student Workbooks
Chapter 1: Equations and Inequalities

Also, community college videos on youtube are also great and usually a bit easier to follow.

Hi, Zapproximator,
I'm a homeschooling mom of a graduating senior and a sophomore. We discovered mathhelp(dot)com this year and have liked it. It does have a cost, but after trying different online curriculum over the last couple years, along with Abeka and Teaching Textbooks, we have all liked this the best. They also have CLEP prep for both College Mathematics and College Algebra. Smile Lessons are short and focus on single concepts. For no cost, what about also trying iTunesU for some specific classes and explanations. And Saylor also has several math courses you could use for studying and reinforcing concepts.
Hope this helps!
