I think you'd like the chapter called The Math Haters Come Around. | |
| Feb 15, 2015 at 3:54 | comment | added | Sam Berry | The good news is, you both will become better mathematicians with practice. Algebra is not something you know by default, it must be learned. Remember to keep a positive attitude about you and your son's mental capacity and obtaining the knowledge should be no problem. | |

In the mean time, one nice site for algebra resources is Purple Math. | |
