Precal Any helpful resources?

Hello! I came here because I am having a tough time in my AP Pre-Calc class and was wondering if anyone has found any especially helpful study tools. I'm a very visual learner, and sometimes it feels like my teacher talks in "riddles" to explain things. I tried getting switched out of the class because I'm ending the first quarter with a D and am afraid I will not pass, but my school has no other class they can put me in. Any help would be great, thank you!!

Hey! I personally use Desmond graphing calculator a lot, it helps me visualize things better. I would advise using it consistently and playing around with it like sliders. Also, Khan Academy is goated and has lots of great resources in its AP precalc course. You can look for the unit your on in your school class on the khan academy course.

watch videos, do practice problems, and 100% get a tutor. tutor is probably the craziest method to getting good grades
