    My friends son is very talented and hardworking. My buddy and I believe he will be a Mathematician some day.

    I was wondering if there is a web page that take a person from basic arithmetic to highest levels of math. Hopefully my buddies son can teach himself math.

    I am very fond of Khan academy.

    https://www.khanacademy.org/exercisedashboard
    move the map to see how it progresses and its deviations into, say chemistry etc. It is a great project.

    Pick a place, and take a lesson... and then a test. I found it invaluable review. Understood things I had just memorized... and forgot.

    I don't know if he would like it, but Code.org if he wants to try a hand at Computer Science, or he could download Scratch and learn the basics of it.

    Khan Academy is your best bet. I simply can't recommend it enough.

    I'm planning going back to university for my 50th birthday and I'm using Kahn as a refresher course for my math, which I haven't really used in the last 25 years or so...

    I also highly recommend it.
