Educator.com

My son is a senior in high school and takes a variety of AP courses so when I was asked to try out Educator.com for free for 30 days I was excited.  Educator.com is an online company run by former college professors and administrators that hire top professors in the field of science and math.  These knowledgeable professors provide video lectures, lecture notes, and will answer students’ questions within 24 hours.  It is like having a professor provide one-on-one assistance whenever you need it. 
These are the AP subjects that you can find on Educator.com:

Mathematics: Algebra I, Algebra II, Trigonometry, AP Calculus I/AB, AP Calculus II/BC, AP Statistics
Science: AP Chemistry, AP Physics B, AP Physics C - Mechanics, AP Physics C - Electricity and Magnetism, AP Biology, AP Computer Science

The video lectures are done very well and are interesting to view.  You can pinpoint exactly where the information you want is explained and pose questions to the professor in the discussion area as you view the video.  The professors are well dressed, articulate and knowledgeable.  The professors bios are available on the website so you know they are well trained in their field. 

My son liked that the site was easy to use and he could locate the information he needed quickly.  He felt confident that the information he was given was accurate and beneficial to him. 

The cost is $35.00 a month or $240.00 a year. Once you sign up you will have full access to all the videos and resource available on the site.  You can try it free for 30 days just follow these steps:
1.Go to http://www.educator.com and click on "Create Account" or "Subscribe"

2.Make sure "Basic Plan" is selected. (Code Will Not Work Otherwise)
3.Enter your account information.
4.Disregard "Payment Type", you will not be asked to pay.
5.Below the "Continue" button, check "Special Billing" and enter BUZZFA626
6.Press "Continue" and you are done.

I was provide this free trial for being a Bzz Agent.  All thoughts and opinions stated are my own.
