The lessons on MathHelp were very great. I found the courses easy to understand and learn from. I joined MathHelp and signed up for the College Algebra course because I needed to refresh my knowledge, having been out of the loop for over 10 years.

I used these lessons for college algebra class and ended up passing. It was a very big help and a nice refresher for me.Skyler Holden - September 2023

The program was helpful and allowed me to have an easier time in College Algebra. I was able to pass the class with an A-. The section that helped me the most was Quadratic Functions, as this was a struggle for me during my earlier time in College, so to have someone break it down and show me how each step works was amazing.Colby Neal - July 2023

My College Algebra course went well and I managed to pass with a B. I’m on older non-traditional student and found your tutorials to be very helpful and pivotal to my success.Rick Taylor - May 2023

I find this resource for College Algebra very helpful. I am an adult returning to college late in life and the videos here and the teachers are great.Rick Taylor - May 2023

This program was super helpful for College Algebra.Yngrid Lindores - April 2023

Fantastic College Algebra program. Will use again if needed!William Demick - December 2022

It was amazing! I used it to prepare for College Algebra and got an "A"!Wesley Baker - October 2022

Thank you, it was instrumental in getting me thru college algebra, very helpful. Will re-up if any other course might be needed in the future.Ellie Smith - July 2022

My College Algebra course went well thanks to your program. The most helpful elements to me were the multiple videos of explanations that started off extremely basic and built up difficulty. I do not learn very well when I get blasted in the face with information then an overly difficult problem. Also the practice tests helped with learning and then performing which helped me retain the lesson.Tylor Qualls - May 2022

I passed my college algebra course. Using this website was a lot easier than reading the textbook. And very interactive. Every lesson started with several very short video instructions, followed by practice questions and then test questions. Step-by-step.Ali Al-Hariri - April 2022

Your lessons were super helpful, nailed an A. I ended up only being able to take an 8 week College Algebra course online and it was mostly watching videos from an online book with lessons that were at times confusing and subpar. Your lessons were always well explained and made sense. Colleges should literally pay your site to be the course. Once again many thanks. Your site has got me past entrance exams and Algebra. Also my son does your lessons and finds them so easy to follow and understand, so it is great for all ages and experience.Derek Albright - February 2022

I used the program to prepare for a College Algebra class after being out of school for a long time. I highly recommend it for anyone. It's a great program.Jamia Hensley - January 2022

Yes! I just finished College Algebra! I couldn’t have done it, much less make an A without you guys! Thank you!Goldie Headrick - December 2021

This College Algebra course helped me greatly. I appreciate the time put into this site and all the help given to me for such a low price. Thanks again for all the help. Much love.Brandi Maddrey - October 2021

Thank you so much. The college algebra was a great refresher for myself (I am an adult learner/returning to college to finish my degree after many years away from any schooling). Thank you for breaking concepts down into understandable terms, and using memorable techniques to put it down on pencil and paper. I earned an A in my class (College Algebra), and it is a vast improvement in my understanding of math (I was not too great with math in general in elementary and high school). Thank you for giving me a boost in "mathematical confidence"! Thank you so much!Victor Guanzon - June 2021

Extremely helpful to someone taking college algebra 30 years after graduating from high school. Thank You!Chandra Vaughan - May 2021

I found the College Algebra course to be EXTREMELY helpful. I thought every concept was explained in a way that was easy for me to understand. I am currently enrolled in a College Algebra course at a university after spending over 15 years out of school. I tried to take the same course in spring of 2019 and was completely lost because I didn't remember any of the fundamental concepts. I feel like the course on your website has adequately prepared me for this semester and I expect to have success. Thank you for providing these resources for students such as myself. There's no way that I could feel as confident going into this semester without having gone through the training that you provided. Thank you for all that you and your team does. I wish you all the best.John-David Butler - August 2020

Very helpful. The College Algebra program met my needs. I will definitely consider coming back to it in the future; will suggest this program to my friends.Joseph Breeden - July 2020

This College Algebra course provided great explanations. It also provided great exercise problems to help solidify the concepts that were explained.Kevin Keller - June 2020
