I've mentioned before that I hope Logan takes after Joe in math (my husband has always scored at the genius level) and me in reading. While I excelled in subjects like spelling, language arts, creative writing, journalism, etc. (my major in college), I failed math in third grade. My teacher agreed to let me continue on to the next class if my parents hired a math tutor for me. It worked. By the time I was in fifth grade I was on the honor roll and in high school I even received a 4.0 which meant I got an A in Algebra! I can not tell you what a huge accomplishment that was for me!!!
But, math will never be natural or easy for me. I had to work extremely hard in both high school and the one college math course I was required to take. With that one class in college I met with other students each week and a tutor, but I was a bit boy crazy that year and the tutor was soooo good looking. . .LOL. . .I ended up with a C. Back then (10 years ago) there really wasn't free online math tutoring. Maybe if I'd had the opportunity of online math tutoring I would have done better! (Also my stepdad could have gotten a break, as I went home on the weekends so that he could help me with my homework!)
TutorVista is the leading online tutoring company in the world. They offer an UNLIMITED monthly tutoring package for only $99.99 a month for all subjects, not just online math help. Tutoring is available 24X7 - so as much as you want, whenever you want. They even provide a free demo for first time users to try the service for free.
TutorVista sounds like an excellent source of math help. It is not just for college tutoring, but also K-12, and back to school. That means if Logan does end up taking after me once he gets into elementary school, junior high, or high school - he can receive free math help with an online math tutor. Maybe if we recognize that it's an area of challenge early, he will end up having an easier time with math than I do.

My daughter could use some help with math. I'll have to take a look at that website.
I am a Middle School Math Teacher and I created a new free online math games site called hoodamath.com
