Math is hilarious in that there are like, 15 different ways you can be taught a certain subject, and different people respond to different methods in radically different ways. But the way it works now, you get pretty much a random professor out of the three or so in a department, and they usually teach it the way they understood it, and if you don't get it then it's your fault. Definitely go to youtube for stuff your professor is unable or unwilling to help you with. I highly recommend Professor Leonard's youtube channel, he has a ton of college algebra and beyond stuff and a lot of people seem to react to him positively.
