On the bright side, you have help besides fellow students and the teacher. The Algebra Helper software will literally help you work on your own algebra problems at your own pace. By the time you're done with your homework, you can show that teacher (and if you're nice - your classmates too) how it's done. Picture yourself doing your homework. Sitting. Staring at the equation. Outwardly silent, but inwardly screaming, "Why?! Why doesn't this make any sense? I studied! What is the problem? Am I just dumb or something?" Who really needs help solving equations that aren't your own? Math labs and tutorials are great, but when you're done, you still have to do your own homework. Besides, how often do you really remember everything you go through in a tutorial? What you really need is something that can help you with your own homework, not problems it already has programmed into it that barely look like what your teacher or professor was trying to explain. Cut the time it takes to do your homework in half and then some. Once you plug in your algebra equation, the program will go through it with you step by step. Instead of fighting to figure out where you went wrong, you can learn it at the same time you're doing your homework. No more math labs, tutoring sessions with the teacher, embarassement because you didn't know the answer or asking your parents if they remember how to do this stuff. Don't worry. There's hope. Take a look at the demo and see how easy your homework can be explained and done. No more sitting there staring at the page hoping it will all come together. So, let me ask you a question…what are you waiting for? You probably could have done your homework by now and be out having fun. |
