I have tutored many, many people in Math through Calculus, and I have found that if you start off with the basics and take things one step at a time - anyone can learn complex Math topics. This DVD has literally hundreds of example problems ranging in all levels of complexity. Each problem is broken down into bite-sized-chunks so that no one gets lost. This DVD will take anyone with no prior exposure to Algebra and raise their scores significantly.

 Scared to death of Algebra? June 12, 2008
Having been out of school for more years than I can remember the one thing
that frightened me the most was Algebra. I was horrible in this subject in school. Even with a tutor I got a D in Algebra 1 and 2. It never made any sense to me, but that is rapidly changing now. I am able to understand it better as it was presented in a very clear and concise way. Jason is a wonderful teacher and even shows a side that we all make mistakes as we are human, but to be able to recognize the mistake and fix it made me even more comfortable. I am rapidly solving problems on my own now and send many thanks for this and all of your wonderful products!
There is a companion workbook to this as well which I have ordered to practice my skills even further...great idea!
 A bit disappointing June 1, 2008
I purchased this two-disk DVD and looked forward to refreshing my knowledge of mathematics. I realize there need not be much rehearsal for this type of training aid, but I was a bit disappointed as a mistake was made during part of a presentation and not corrected later.
In short, I do not recommend it.
 Good stuff May 31, 2008
I have all his DVD's. The lessons are great. They cover the basics that are important in the class. Of course not all information is covered in the DVD's. Think of it as an overview of hot topics. I have used these DVD's before I took a class and them reviewed them along the way. I also have purchased some of the idoit and dummy guides as a type of work book. They all together give you a different way to look at the math martial. Because as you know, most math books are written by brainy math folks, and they are not the easiest to follow.
Love this course! May 14, 2008
Math Tutor[dot]com is awesome. Growing up I had always struggled with math. It remained a stumbling block for years. But I recently started college, and math is now a big part of my life. Without Mr Gibson's DVD, I would not be faring very well. What I really like about this series is how it's bundled into bite sized bits. It makes digesting much easier. No drudgery here! Not only is my math improving, I'm actually having fun while learning. I would recommend this course to anyone. Thanks a lot, Mr Gibson!
It's not hard if you know how to do it....... December 4, 2007
The worst thing a teacher can do is complicate the subject they are teaching. The best thing a teacher can do is to make the subject they are teaching as simple and as easy to understand as possible. I'm going back to college after years of not wanting to because of the bad experiences I've had with unqualified teachers. Most teachers I've had were more interested in showing the class how smart they must be in order to teach their class, which requires them to complicate the very things being taught. This is exactly why I've rebelled against going back to school in the first place. Luckily there are teachers like Jason Gibson, who want you to actually learn what they are teaching. I'm 28 years old, with the education similar to a freshman in high school, but with the help of Gibson, and learning not to be affected by lame self absorbed college teachers, I'll fulfill my dream of becoming a mechanical engineer. Hey, it's better late than never. Don't be a fool, go back to school!
