Resources
Math resources I trust
These are tools and references I’ve discovered through years of teaching. I recommend them selectively, depending on a student’s level, goals, and learning style.
Art of Problem Solving
Challenging, theory-driven problems for advanced students. Excellent for building deep mathematical understanding rather than rote procedures.
Khan Academy
Free, comprehensive coverage of math across all grade levels, including test prep. A solid baseline resource for most students.
IXL
Interactive practice aligned to state curriculum standards. Massive problem banks with immediate feedback.
Paul’s Online Math Notes
Clear, well-structured explanations from Algebra through Differential Equations. Especially useful for older students and self-study.
TimesTables.com
Simple, focused practice for mastering multiplication tables from 1–12.
Multiplication.com
Game-based arithmetic practice designed for younger students building fluency.
Dow Jones – Play
Interactive games that introduce financial literacy concepts like loans, insurance, and investing.
CodingBat
Short programming exercises for Java and Python. Excellent for logic building and early CS practice.
Project Euler
Challenging math and programming problems that reward deep thinking and algorithmic insight.
A note on usage: No single resource fits every student. I choose tools strategically based on where a student is stuck, what skills they need next, and how they learn best.
