   Terrible online training course

   The lowest available rating score is 1, but if there were a zero, I would rate this program a zero. There are no pros to this programming course. The lessons are so brief that I cannot understand them. Before I gave up for good on this programming course, I was writing tons of messages to people on Youtube asking them to explain things to me, and I hated the constant hassle of having to write online messages asking for explanations for the simplest of things that the lessons did not explain. This programming course is NOT a do-it-yourself training course by any means --- and it should not be used by schoolteachers as student homework assignments, as I recently advised a 13-year-old who was having trouble with the lessons and nothing was being helpful to him. This training course should be accompanied not by brief and intelligible on-screen lessons, but it should be accompanied by a detailed high school-style textbook complete with images. By the way, I have Asperger's syndrome, I have all kinds of problems with learning and with executing tasks, and I cannot participate in gainful employment in ANY profession for this reason.

• homeschool help !!

  You don't say how old she is. There are many programs you can enroll her in BUT if she wants to work at her own pace you can look online for what your state/municipality expects a child to know in each year. You can use workbooks, resources like CK-12 for science and video instruction or Khan Academy. Source: 7 months ago

• IWTL all of maths

  Khan Academy is your best friend, you can also use openstax if you like reading more. Supplement with a quality textbook and video courses once you reach Algebra 1, this site and r/learnmath have good recommendations. And most importantly practice. Source: 8 months ago

• Learning math from scratch: I don't know where to start.

  Khanacademy.org - seriously - everything from basic integers and counting to advanced calculus - all at whatever pace you need. Source: 12 months ago

• Best 7th grade math textbook?

  However, the math instruction that worked for me (I suddenly had to teach upper level math to expelled students in a self-contained class - and didn't know anything past Alg 1) was khanacademy.org, a free online program. I also learned chemistry and physics when those became required. Source: 12 months ago
