You have a few options:

1.) Teach yourself

2.) Or choose between informal or formal tutoring, which can either be online or in a classroom.

When teaching yourself:

Go to your local library and use the reference books to teach yourself the basics; if it’s working out for you, you might want to consider buying some text books and test prep books. Also, remember to PRACTICE.

If you’re having difficulty or having too many questions, you can resort to tutoring.

Tutoring:

First decide whether you want informal or formal tutoring:

Informal Tutoring – Tutoring focused solely on your needs; usually best coupled with a certain amount of individual study or formal tutoring or a formal class.

Formal Tutoring – Like getting taught in an actual class, follows a particular curriculum. Can either be one on one, or can be in an actual class.

Talk to someone in your community college and look for tutoring opportunities or non-credit classes. I don’t know the prices for the classes at your community college, but they’re not usually very expensive. If that doesn’t work out for you, or if you prefer the class to be online, then you could try an online service.

For online classes you can use:

Tutorvista (www.tutorvista.com) – Informal class

Pricing: $25 for 30 hours for the first month, $100 for 30 hours for every month after that.

Sabio (www.SabioAcademy.com) – Formal class

Pricing: Varies depending on class, but has a price range of $200-300 per class.

The best thing to do is get a test prep book and study the Math sections. They usually break it down into various topics and you can determine which topics are your weakest. From there, you can either try to teach yourself or check with the local college or community college for a list of tutors. If you know of any students in college now, they might be able to connect you with someone who understands math and can teach it to you. Good luck!

First, try studying on your own. If you can’t manage get help. Hire a tutor : www.tutor.com. Else get some free online tutoring by volunteers and retired teachers : http://www.tuitionplaza.com/tutoring/
