Hey, how are you all? Today I'm going to be talking about different websites and apps that are useful for helping you study math.

FIRST TOOL : KHAN ACADEMY

Yes, of course Khan Academy is on this list! Khan Academy is a great resource for students who are studying math, or are struggling in it.

How does it work, and what does it offer?

Khan Academy math courses are divided into two main categories: "Math by subject", and "Math by grade". Inside of these categories, there are several subcategories. In subjects, this includes Calculus AB arithmetic, trigonometry, etc., and in grades, it includes several learning levels.

If you're looking for specific topics to study, Khan Academy makes this completely easy to do! When you first start out in a new subject, it will ask you what topics you will want to learn.

Once you do this, Khan Academy gives you lessons to work on, and forces you to master them.

SECOND TOOL : KUTASOFTWARE

I'm not sure how many people know about this, but it's a REALLY helpful resource. Not only does it provide a lot of practice, but it's also a resource that MANY teachers use to create their worksheets.

How does it work, and what does it offer?

KutaSoftware is a able program that generates math worksheets tailored to the specific topic, difficulty, etc. that you want. KutaSoftware has s for Pre-Algebra, Algebra I, Geometry, Algebra II, Pre-Calculus, and Calculus.

Other information

• For each section of KutaSoftware, you can get a free two-week trial. If you it, create as MANY worksheets as you can, because it's quite expensive to purchase them.

• This is a really good option for people who prefer paper work over doing it digitally!!

THIRD TOOL : DESMOS

Now, this doesn't really help you LEARN anything. However, it can help you memorize! Desmos is an online graphing calculator.

How does it work?

You input an equation, and it shows you the corresponding graph. You can use degrees and radians, so far as I . This is REALLY helpful if you need to memorize the shape of basic equations, e.g. y=x, y=-x. This is also an app on phones/tablets (or, at least on Android it is).

There's also a scientific one!!

FOURTH TOOL : PHOTOMATH

Of course, you've gotta add in Photomath! Photomath is a helpful tool that checks your math for you, and shows you the steps to solve it.

How does it work?

You scan a problem using the app's camera. It doesn't matter if it's typed or handwritten-- the app has handwriting recognition. For more information, feel free to visit a wiki submission made by a member of our community!

That's all I have for now! These are things that I use, and obviously not everything that is available. If you have anymore apps that you'd like to see included, feel free to comment them below or message me them! I may update this monthly or bimonthly.
