I am working for a nonprofit and tutoring adults who are poor and looking for a new life. A new student (40 years old)does not know any math beyond long division but wants to be a physicist and wants to start learning math. He needs to learn algebra, stats, geometry - basically everything beyond the 5th grade. LOL.

Should I get him like a math for dummies book or just try to find some websites. He has no math skills at all.
