Student TestimonialskMy Open Math is a really well designed site for math online. Yes, I would recommend to keep doing online math with this site or just a tool for students that have a math class, because if the students did not understand a lesson in class maybe the videos could clarify some things for them. And to top it off it is FREE can not get any better than that!

kI absolutely LOVED the myopenmath.com. The videos were phenomenal. I never learned math so easy as with Tyler Wallace's videos. I wish he did more videos. My granddaughter learned linear inequalities for her 8th grade math homework through my course. I want him to know how good these videos are and how helpful they were in helping me understand this semester math! Thank You Tyler Wallace!

kI really enjoyed the Open Math Lab and was so grateful for saving all the money!!! Thank you.

kI do love the way this program is set up, simple and easy to use.


Student TestimonialskAbsolutely I would rather use this program for free than pay $50-$100 for another program. I appreciate the financial support of being free but from experience from Math060 paying for the access code and getting a large textbook I never opened does me no favors, especially with paying over $100.

kI do think MyOpenMath is very easy to use and it's very understandable.

kI think this program is almost perfect, the fact that is free is very convenient and helpful.

kI felt that MyOpenMath was very user friendly, the videos and the examples were easy to understand.

kI personally like how MOM works because its self-explanatory. I enjoyed using it. I think everybody prefers to use it for free because it saves a lot of students some money for gas, other books, etc. I definitely wouldn't mind paying for it if need be because either way it is needed for the class.
