The math placement prep course really helped me — I scored 96% on the test! The question bank was especially useful in helping me practice and build confidence. Thanks for such a helpful course!

The Accuplacer went well. I am very pleased with the MathHelp program. I looked into several different ones before settling on yours. Your lessons not only helped me refresh my memory, but taught me things that I was not able to understand from previous lessons elsewhere.

The ALEKS went so well!! I placed exactly into the college math class I needed, skipping algebra 1-3 and into statistics!! Without this course through mathhelp.com I would have had to take 4 math classes before this class I needed for my bachelor’s degree! I loved the details in the instructions and mini practice quizes and the different types of problems. In high school I remember the teacher showing only one example then the test would have a different type of problem and I didn't know how to do that type of problem such as reciprocals and negative on the bottom instead of the top and so much more! The explanations of why the problem is wrong on your tests helped tremendously as well. Your course was amazing.

This course was beyond helpful to me. I actually took my PERT test today and scored a 150/150! This is all thanks to Mathhelp.

I used this to help me prep for my math TSI. I have been out of school since 2021, and needed to refresh my brain. You definitely need to set plenty of time to go through all the lessons but it is definitely worth it. I did the free trail before subscribing and loved it. I’m and auditory and visual learner as well as hands on. I loved that it had each feature to follow along as well as having plenty of practice questions for each segment. I’ll definitely re-subscribe if I need the extra help once I’m back in school!

The College Algebra course format is ideal for me with videos, extensive practice with more challenging bonus content, plus quizzes and comprehensive exams all with immediate feedback and ability to get worked examples. This was the most helpful online math experience I’ve had so far. The site is very easy to navigate and really organized optimally with reference content easy to access when advancing to each new level.

I honestly have only good things to say about the experience! I was aiming for anywhere above 61 on my ALEKS test and scored a 64. I found it really helpful to have practice questions and quiz questions so the user has a feedback loop on their progress and confidence in the topic. Also, the ability to toggle between the practice/quiz questions and the associated lecture if you get a question wrong was very helpful. Most importantly the clarity of your explanations and example questions were right on point! Thank you very much!

I passed my math placement test because of MATHhelp.com. You guys are the best out there for sure! Every lesson is easy to understand because they walk you through what you need to do. I also just wanted to take the time to thank you & your team for helping me & others who struggle with math. I couldn’t have done it without your help & guidance. I highly recommend this math program!👍

The best course I had. I scored 86 on the ALEKS test thanks to this class. The most helpful content for me was the simplified videos and the quizzes.

I passed the Mathematics MTEL test! The practice questions on MathHelp were very helpful to cement the concepts. And the website is easy to navigate.

I have never been good at math, that's what I was thinking until I started to use MathHelp.com. It is a vital tool while preparing for any college entry exam and for anybody who wants to improve their math skills. It indeed helped me a lot! Its step-by-step explanations made it easy to understand even the most complex topics. I find it the best place to learn math. Highly recommended!!!

I did very well on my test, and I definitely couldn’t have done it without the courses. Everything that was included on the courses was very relevant with what was on the actual test! I will absolutely use Math help the next time I need it.

I really appreciated the math lessons on the website. I had been studying math before for the PERT math test and I just couldn't seem to pass it. I went from a 84 the first time I took to passing it with a 120. The videos were short and to the point. Thank you again!

I took my TSIA2 Math test yesterday and scored a 971! Back in December, I scored a 938, so this improvement means a lot to me. The TSIA2 Math help was incredibly useful and strengthened my math skills. The most helpful lessons for me were Linear Equations in Two Variables and Rational expressions and equations. I truly appreciate the support. Thank you!

I found the GMAT course extremely helpful especially for someone like me who was revisiting these subjects after almost 30 years from my high school graduation. The materials are organized in a very smooth way and are taught with clarity and ample practice tests. Thanks again for the course

Lincoln Vilchis

1738879563

It was great! The elements I felt that most helped me were all of the tests and practices that came after watching the various videos in each of the sections. Not only that, but each teacher/professor was very helpful in explaining how to work problems and telling me to keep some things in mind when doing a specific equation, graphing, etc. In all honesty, everything that had to do with MathHelp was extremely concise and simple to work.

Abigail CIsneros

1736517261

I took my TSIA2 exam today and I scored a 966 on the math portion! I’m very grateful to the course on math help. It really helped refresh my brain on all the math concepts I had learned in high school. I really enjoyed the word problems, especially the help on translating English to algebra. I learned so much and the repetition of it all really helped everything stick! Thank you for all the math help!

I passed the PRAXIS with the help of your program. I really liked the break out of each section and the grades it showed of my test while working through it. I really like the practice test questions with instant feedback if I got the answer correct or not. I like that I had the final exam as well and it helped give a snap shot of the areas I need to work on. I had used another program but did not pass my test...thank you for putting this together. I like the bonus buttons as well if I needed more work in a certain area. The blond teacher is the best and good to see other instructors as well.

I loved your teaching throughout this program! Thank you for all the hard work you put into compiling and teaching such a stream-lined curriculum. I only needed to test into MAT142 at Arizona State University to continue my education but it’s been 15 years since my last math course and as a nurse, I use some basic math for drug dosage calculations or area under the curve for chemotherapy calculations but this program was a great refresher for everything in between. I had super limited time to view the program, so I had to skip some on the more advanced trig, calculus and statistics sections and go ahead and take the ALEKS test so I could enroll for spring semester but I was able to test in to the math class I needed, so I consider it a success. I wouldn’t have felt anywhere near as confident going in if I hadn’t completed the program first.

I definitely think every section was very well thought out. The practice questions and the test questions were a definite bonus. It gave me plenty of chances to try out problems without guidance and the ability to review the written out solution for each answer was phenomenal. I was also grateful for the ability to skip around, to see my progress and scores and to be able to speed up the audio for each section. The reminders and pointing out the common mistakes that students make was a great touch! It made me think about what could trip me up later on and those little tidbits will stick with me.

I sincerely appreciate your help and I may be back later on if my course doesn’t provide the caliber of teaching that this program did.

The ALEKS test went as well as it could for somebody that’s been out of the classroom for 25 years. The MathHelp site actually helped me a ton to prep. I don't have to take remedial math thank goodness. The ALEKS prep broke out the subjects beautifully and allowed you to build on it if you needed to. I hopped around a bit myself, but overall super easy to navigate either way you do it. Thanks!

The Accuplacer went great, I was studying to place a class higher and was able to accomplish that goal. What I appreciated about Math Help was its clean layout and structure to be able to move quickly between videos and practice tests for each skill. I really feel like using this tool was a crucial part of me being able to advance in classes so quickly.

The course and the format were very well thought out and it did help me to pass a university math placement enough to not have to take remedial college math classes. It was good refresher even though being away from university and college math for over 30 years. I would highly recommend this math help for anyone that needs to get back to the basics. Also, the way it is taught with explanations, practice problems and test questions for every concept covered.

I originally used my MathHelp subscription for the Math Accuplacer, which I ended up scoring wonderfully on, my final score landing in the 99th percentile actually. I enjoyed that review course so much I switched to SAT prep for my exam coming up on December 7th. I would say the video explanations and the review modules were the most helpful for me while preparing for the exams.

Nicholas Sheetz

1733148380

It helped more than I expected! I’ve been out of high school 5 years, needed a refresher. I went through every module and ended up scoring a 975/999 on my TSI math portion. It sure helped a lot, just make sure you give yourself enough time to study all of the material. Two weeks sufficed fine for me.

Rachna P

I think the whole TSIA2 course was designed very well. I am super scared of Math in general. Have started studying after 35 yrs, so this course was a saviour. It was very clear and precise for my needs. Thank you for creating it.

Byron Miller

1732117405

Thanks to Mathhelp I scored three levels above where I needed to be on my Aleks test. Fantastic course. I really liked how you could change the speed of playback - I would usually watch at 1.5x speed. If I could have done that when I was taking math in high school I wouldn't have been so bored. The tests and review units were all really well done and everything helped. Thanks so much for all the work you put into this, it's really great!

Madeline Kennedy

This course was amazing!! I recently went back to school and had to take the Accuplacer test for math. I have not been in a math class for over 14 years. This course helped me pass and get placed in college level algebra. Definitely recommend this course.

MathHelp was the main reason I was able to pass my ASVAB with such a high score (in the 90s)! They offer a comprehensive math packet that makes reviewing easy. Highly recommended.

Macie Jayne

1723825066

The ALEKS test went great. I hadn't taken a math class for over 5 years so I was a little nervous to take the test so I wanted to be as prepared as possible when taking the test. It was really helpful in refreshing my memory and teaching me things I never learned. What I found most helpful was the video lessons as they helped walk me through everything. The program was really helpful.

Jessica Padgett

Preparing for any test can be nerve-racking, especially when it’s a subject you struggle with or have not practiced in a while. When I needed to prepare for the Accuplacer Quantitative Reasoning and Statistics I found all the resources I needed on MathHelp. The lessons are concise, thorough, and easy to understand. When my test day rolled around I felt confident in my abilities. I ended up passing with flying colors and even exceeded my own expectations. I would recommend MathHelp to anyone who wants to improve their understanding and confidence before their test day!

Victoria Larkin

passed the TExES core subjects ec-6 math exam!!! The videos really broke down each skills for me. I liked how many practice questions there were after each lesson for practice for the test for the bonus. I really liked it. The videos with the blonde woman were the most helpful. I feel like she really broke down each problem and explained each element that helped me a lot.

Kimberly Youngberg

1722813810

Thank you! I passed my NYSTCE Grades 1-6 exam and did surprisingly well. I haven’t taken a math course in 20 years so I was nervous. I liked that I could go through all of the lessons, test my current knowledge and then focus on the areas with the most need. I felt the lessons were taught at a level I could understand. I appreciate the course I took so much, it helped me out for sure. I got a 557 on a test that I thought would be near impossible for me to pass.

Test Praxis 5003 Elementary Math.
I just got my Praxis Elementary score and I did great, scoring 184. Your course was the reason. I did all the lessons.

Raul Gamboa

I annihilated the TSIA2 test! The most helpful part of the course for me was it’s step-by-step format and practice questions and its slowly ramps up in difficulty - which kept me motivated. The way the course is formatted made it incredibly satisfying and easy to learn.

Clark Melinkovich

1721767673

The Accuplacer test went well and my daughter scored high enough to get into the college math class she needed to take. We really liked the program. It was great how there were the explanation videos which were really good and then the practice and then the quizzes. I liked how if she already knew something we could skip right to the quiz part and if she was struggling with something we could watch the explanations a couple times and then see the practice problems worked. I wasn’t sure how I was going to get her ready for that placement test before I found your program and it was just what we needed. I would definitely recommend it.

Jessica Berger

1721218497

Thank you so much for your lessons! I came into this having forgotten pretty much everything about math except the basics and I left confidently taking the TSI and passing with no trouble at all! I was impressed by my score (976!) and so proud of myself! I can’t thank you enough. I really liked how easy it was to follow the videos and the freedom to go at my own pace. Thank you from a 35 year old mother of 3 finally following her dreams to become a teacher. I truly couldn’t have done it without you!

I’m going for a stem major and I wanted my foundation for Math as strong as possible. Mathhelp was extremely helpful. I graduated high school in 2010 with my last math class in 2009. Your lessons were vital in my reintroduction to college math and allowed me the confidence to jump back in. So thank you for making such a quality product.

My son took his GED and did very well thanks to the hours he spent studying with your program. It's set up very well and was very helpful for him. I would say that the way you have it broken down made it very easy for him to identify and focus on the areas that he struggled with the most enabling him to master his problem areas. Thanks for making this available.

My AccuPlacer test went very smooth thanks to the MathHelp lessons. All throughout the course I was thinking “this is refreshing my brain so well, while also teaching me lessons much more efficiently than what I have learned in the past”. The course was great.

I am going back to school for nursing and used this program to refresh my math in preparation for the Hesi and Kaplan exams. It was by far the most helpful online course I used and had everything I needed to know. I found it so easy to use and everything was explained perfectly. If I need any more math help in the future, I will definitely renew my membership.

MathHelp was a great program to re-learn math for the Accuplacer. It’s been 30 years since graduating high school so there was a lot to refresh my memory with. It was easy to understand and navigate.

Taylor Davies

I haven't taken a formal math class for 25+ years. I was worried about the placement test for re enrolling in college. Math help did a great job dusting off the cobwebs and taught me enough to get into the course I needed. I thought the lessons were very good and thorough to give me the refreshers I needed to get the job done.

I am very pleased to say that I was able to pass the PRAXIS Elementary test on the first attempt. This wouldn’t been possible without mathhelp. Everything that was offered during the course I saw back at the test as well. For me everything was helpful especially the extra explanations and the subtests.
