Teacher Zone is a new free service being offered by the mathematics tutorial service Ten Marks. Teacher Zone is a compilation of more than 1,000 mathematics tutorials videos created by Ten Marks tutors. The videos cover everything from basic elementary school mathematics skills through high school Algebra and Geometry skills.
The videos in the Teacher Zone collection are all hosted on YouTube but you can only be access the categorized collection by registering for a free Teacher Zone account. Theoretically you could find the videos on YouTube on your own, but that would probably be a lot more time consuming than registering with Teacher Zone. The other advantage of registering for a free Teacher Zone account is that if YouTube is blocked in your school, Teacher Zone makes the video available in a secondary format that is less likely to be blocked by school filters.
Here's one of the videos from the Teacher Zone collection.
Applications for Education
I know from talking with mathematics teachers in my school that they sometimes hear from parents who want to help their children with homework, but they need a refresher themselves. The videos from Teacher Zone could provide that refresher that parents are looking for before they try to help their children with math homework.

I know it's the end of the school year so the last thing anyone wants to do is math (and I'm a math teacher!), but I create animated math videos, the latest is a video proof on WHY multiplying to get AC, and then finding the factors of AC that add to B, works to factor trinomials.
All of my animated videos are on my Wordpress blog at http://zerosumruler.wordpress.com/ and I'd LOVE your feedback!
I also posted on TenMarks (http://www.pragmaticmom.com/?p=9189) and had recommended to a mom friend at work. They had such great success with it! Her daughter thought it was fun, online games and would sit 5 times longer than assigned (and ask for more!). Her mom loved that it was a comprehensive review that she didn't have to fight with her daughter to do. And it's well priced! Everone wins! I want to get the word out!
