    You guys know any good tutor for math?

    So the professor I have is ass at teaching, goes really fast and only really writes the answer down and don't show steps and when he does show it he shows like one way to do it and his handwriting is beyond abysmal. I asked several students (like 12 ) and they all agree with majority of my statements about this teacher. I would drop him but I need the class, I would switch him out but he is the only one available (figures). Doesn't help that math is my weakest subject.

    So I am looking for an online tutor to self teach this god dang class. So if you have used a math tutor online before, please suggest me. Not too expensive tho...

    Unless it's dirt cheap, don't go for an online tutor. Its not as effective as a 1 on 1 tutor IRL... Just my observations over the year. I like doing things hands on.

    Usually student tutors like people in college are cheap. Around maybe $25 an hour for a 1 on 1 session. Pretty much find them on Craigslist or whatever.

    I am a mathematics tutor, but I think it would be difficult to help you via web. I would gladly help you understand problems, but I am mostly busy.

    Complex number, if the fucker just wrote down the formula, I would have figured it out in like 2 min cause its literally just plug and chug problems but he was making it way too complicated. Keep in mind again that math is my absolute worst subject, so if its easy to you than it prob is not easy to me

    (a+bi) (c+di) = (ac+bd) + (ad+bc)
    (a+bi) (a-bi) = a^2 + b^2
    (a+bi) + (c+di) = (a+c) (b+d)i
    and another formula but too lazy to write it out -_-

    There is no "formula" for this. It's just typical expansion by multiplying.
    Furthermore, these are identities. For the first two equations, if you multiply them out, you will get the answer on the right. The third one is just the equation rearranged, and putting b and d together with "i" factored out.

    Btw, don't pay money for tutors. Lots of tutors claim they are "good" at math but are absolute garbage at teaching it and they charge a buttfuck ton of money for it. Watch Patrickjmt videos on YouTube. ProbRobBob is great too. Khan Academy.

    Patrickjmt is the OG. Carried me through first and second year calc and linear algebra + ODEs. Owe him my uni career
