Hooda Math Games This is a fun site for kids.  This has a hundreds of different math games that will help student's understand and learn math. There are speed math games that involve multiplication addition subtraction and division.  These are great games for learning tables and will help a student develop skills especially in multiplication.  This site has a timed test for 2 number multiplication and addition problems.  Even as an adult, I enjoy playing the games.   There are games for: Geometry  Algebra Number theory Fractions There are also many games for subjects like physics and reading. Most games are for people up to the age of 12 

Integral-calculator Integral calculator is a good site with a very powerful calculator for integrals.  I like the format of to enter the numbers.  The steps are a bit cumbersome but it is a great site for solving your integrals. This site is appropriate for: High school calculus students College calculus students Professionals

  Symbolab integral calculator Calculator for Integrals and other math problems.  This is definitely a good site to visit especially if you need a graphing calculator and you don't have one.  This site also shows problems worked. This site is appropriate for: Elementary students Secondary students College students Professionals

Math Planet This is a nice little free site for learning high school math.  The information is presented in both a written and in a video form.  I find it pretty comprehensive and a very good site for a student to review information that he or she missed and it is also a good site for a student to teach themselves math. The following course work is presented: Pre-algebra Algebra Algebra2 Geometry ACT math SAT math This site does not have any pop ups and is very clean and presented in a manner that is easy to learn.  This is definitely a worthy site to visit.

Brilliant This is a fantastic site with very challenging problems.  I would recommend this for people studying for standardized tests. The questions in a category start out very easy and then you progress to very difficult problems.  This is a problems solvers type of site This site covers subjects like: Logic Word problems Physics problems Algebra problems Many more types of problems This site asks multiple choice questions that are very much like questions that you see on standardized tests.  This is a great site to practice for these tests. You also move to another level each time you master a bank of tests.  The questions get very challenging and are great test taking practice.  To join, you do need to provide an email and you will get quite a few emails challenging you to solve a problem.  The tests stop at a lower level and you have to pay a subscription to be able to do the more challenging problems.  Without paying, there are still many cha...

Beyond Calculus Beyond Calculus is a teachers site for calculus.  While it is intended for AP calculus students, I would say it is appropriate for all calculus students.  This site has both posts and embedded videos.  This is a good site for brush up on topics like: While this site has most of the main subjects in AP calculus, it is missing topics like:  Derivatives and integrals of transcendental functions like trig functions and logs. Derivatives and integrals of exponents Integration methods like integration by parts, trigonometric substitutions, and partial derivatives. Beyond Calculus does touch on most Calculus subjects like: Limits Derivatives and derivative applications Integration and integral applications This is a worth site for: Calculus students AP Calculus students College Calculus students

Exams with Solutions This is an interesting site which gives links to sights with solutions to math problems.  Many of the links just post sample tests.  These are teacher sites, mostly from universities that students often use to help them study for tests. I did find some broken links and also most of the links are to just exams but there are exams that do have solutions.  Most of the site is a little more advanced and directed towards college students but it would also be appropriate for secondary students looking for study material for their exams. The subjects covered: Biology Chemistry Mathematics Physics Economics Computer science Engineering  Statistics This is appropriate for: High school students College students Self learners

Wolfram Alpha This is one of my favorite sites.   I often refer my students to this service.  This site  has both a free and paid services. The free service is adequate for most calculations.  When you enter a function: It will give a graph of the function.   For instance lets say you enter xsinx and it will graph the function.  This will give you a graph for just about any function that you enter.  This is a graphing calculator. The calculator will give you the domain and range of the function. This will give you a series representation of the function. This will give you an improper integral of most functions if the derivative exists. This will give you a derivative of most functions if the derivative exists. This will find the maxima and minima of the function. This will give you and alternate function.
