Wolfram's Mathworld is a very nice place with lots of math lessons, not only that but also applications for applicable fields. It covers various forms of Algebra, including vector, geometry, calculus, and much, much more. I think that even someone very well versed in math can learn from this site. Check it out.

You have to have some idea of what you want before you go.

Personally, I've found mathworld to be a horrible place to learn math. Sure, if you already know *at least* highschool-level math (or what they teach in Finnish sr.high), then you have some chance of understanding something they're talking about. But sending someone to mathworld without any clue is brutal. =)

Wikipedia and Mathworld have the same problem. They treat everything with the greatest possible generality, which also unfortunately means their treatment is often too abstract for people who want to actually use the math to do something.

I look at simple things I already kind of know. I kind of misspoke when I said learn, more like look up already semi-known stuff.
