How to Get the Most Out of the DIY Math Guide

For Serious Learners

• If you can, keep a journal just for math.

• Work through all the resources on the page from top to bottom. Take notes and try problems as you go. As you finish each activity, write about what you learned in your journal.

• If you find that you don't quite understand the concepts, use the search terms in the orange box on the righthand side of the page to search for more information.
