What are some websites that help students in high school?

[Safdar]

I've been looking for some site that'll help me regain my knowledge in a few subjects since I've legit blanked out on them. I used to be a very good student untik I lately I wasn't much focused on my studies much, and hung out nearly everyday. I'd say quarantine acted as a helping hand for that now that I can finally focus on other things that are more important, one of them being my studies.

Lately i have been trying out websites that offer video courses (coursera and KhanAcademy) but it doesn't do it for me for some reason. I think I'm looking for a website that lays out notes in text and diagrams so I can understand better. I can't sit through videos and notes have always worked better for me. Recently I've been looking for this website that uploads hand-written notes and diagrams for Biology and it looks almost orgasmic how beautiful the handwriting is. I used to know the site but I forgot what it was.

Also would appreciate some advice on organising my notes or whatever since I'd have to have them on my computer now, so I've created a G-drive folder to have all my notes and mark schemes. Very curious about how you guys are preparing as well. I don't have much problems with subjects like english or IT, but i need a hand to help out with my science subjects as i'm kinda struggling with those

I don't know what field i wanna study on yet so my subjects are all science, IT, both pure and further maths (<- which I'm planning to drop because it's a nightmare), and English ofc. (Cambridge O Levels 2021 syllabus)

Thanks to whoever put in the effort to help me out here, I'm just trying to get up to the grades of an averagely good student again.

As a Computer Engineering student, about to begin on his 2nd year of a B.A degree, SoloLearn has helped me alot when it comes to the IT subjects I have had so far. Their Python course is one of the best imo. , I used SoloLearn next to my studies when learning this language, got top grades on my exams, and I now got a job as a group leader for the new students taking this course.

Sounds pretty cool, congrats on that. but i don't think the website would be too helpful for me right now (it seems super helpful otherwise) because we aren't studying code but just the 2021 O Levels syllabus which includes data representation, algorithms, and databases. Programming complex languages comes later, still thanks a lot for the website it'll come in handy for me

Understandable SoloLearn also has free courses for algorithms, recursion, and subjects surrounding databases (SQL, PHP,
Data Modeling etc.)

Hey, are you looking for resources or general learning?

Both actually

I know you said that the video method of teaching doesn't work but seriously Sal Khan (Khan Academy) is a genius. Even if you take a few things away from his videos, or 1-2 things, it really does give you a boost.

For Calculus 1-3 I love Paul's Online Notes https://tutorial.math.lamar.edu/ - also does simpler topics like algebra though I doubt you'd need them if you want to do pure maths (since you should already know the foundations of it). He includes worksheets, complete "books" which shouldn't replace textbooks, cheat sheets and more.

If you're desperate, Michael Penn on YouTube and Dr. Peyam cover various topics. Right now the doc's covering epsilon-delta limit examples but he has done extensive calculus videos and algebra videos (he is brilliant by the way, love him). Michael Penn also does anything from algebra to number theory and some other stuff.

IT can be straightforward and it really depends on what area you want to get to. Programming you want to start with some OOP courses regardless of language. Computer Science is fairly straightforward too and MIT OCW will help cover not only that but also pretty much any other subject you want to get into. A lot of their stuff are videos but I'm pretty sure they have text as well. This goes for maths and whatnot and is really specific.

If you've got any questions feel free to ask. Good luck

Brainly is a good platform, generally people use it for cheating but the whole entire idea of the platform is to ask questions and get peer help, for example how a problem would be carried out. I've found it a lot easier to understand sometimes.

Looks like I found what I was looking for Thanks a lot, this website will really help me out a lot

Stackoverflow is your BEST friend.

But that seems to be a developer community website?

I've found symbolab.com to be super helpful for anything math related.
