Online Places for Homework Help

Often times a student needs extra help with a certain subject area. I've noticed that many kids do not want to ask for extra help because they are either afraid the teacher will yell at them or they are embarrassed to admit that they didn't understand something. Luckily, with the Internet at their disposal, students can watch videos in their own time, and hopefully gain a better understanding of what was taught in class that day. Here are some tutoring sites which offer extra help, as well as video tutorials.
