For everything else there's KhanAcademy
for studying I'd recommend investing in a whiteboard if you don't already have one. Its a great tool for cramming and even doing homework on. You can easily erase all of your work to start over if you make a mistake.
I do all of my homework on a whiteboard and when I'm satisfied I move it onto a piece of paper for homework submission.

Where you taking it? Wherever you end up taking it im almost certain there should be a learnig centre in the library or something with tutors. That should be sufficient help, the rest is up to you to make sure you get enough practice.

i'm doing it in the evenings at bcit... most the resources at the library are during the day and I work full time...and I've always felt that I understand math MUCH better and faster when I can go to an instructor or have someone to help me along when I get stuck.

Are you still in highschool or are you at college / university already? If you are already at a local college, you can probably go to their learning center and book for some time with a math tutor. Those are usually free. If you are already studying in university, both UBC and SFU should have calculus workshops that are open for a good number of hours everyday. You just have to go there and bug the hell out of the TAs. (And of course, help from the TA is free.)

The best way without paying is asking a teacher i'm sure they will be happy to help you give you a quick 15 minute lesson for free everyday. If you keep bugging them everyday ! as well as i'm sure the library has free tutors.
