Hey! Now I am also just starting to study secondary math and precalculus, so I am in search of good resources and help. Since I don’t understand a lot of things and I cannot to solve on my own. I have advised you one more resource that I found yesterday. It is called Plainmath, where you can ask any question that interests you. I hope this will help you (as well as me) understand many of the nuances.

There might be better ones, but OpenStax allows you to figure out what you do understand already and what not for free.

High school? Secondary Math? Tell exactly what you are studying. One way to view the progression of Mathematics courses which may be available to high school students on a college preparatory "track" is
(1) Algebra 1 (basic, introductory, elementary)
(2) Algebra 2 (intermediate)
(3) "Mathematical Analysis"(not very good terminology) (Pre-Calculus, or easily thought as Algebra 3)
 
This is my second year in college, and I changed my major to electrical engineering at the start of my second year. I'm taking Calc 1, and I know that I'm going to fail the course. I think there are several reasons for this. I hadn't touched math in an entire year (finished pre-calc 2 in HS), and I heard Calc 1 was the easiest math course, so I decided that taking the class without outside help (tutors or office hours) was enough. I tried really hard and spent hours learning, studying, and...
