Algebra can be difficult if your skills lie in other areas, but you should be able to handle at least up through Algebra I on your own. What level of math do you feel comfortable with right now? Have you considered online or community college courses for when you feel you can't go any further? I found it a lot easier to learn my high-level math by taking a a course at the local community college (Calc III) than by trying to study it on my own (Calc I and II).
I can of course try to explain how to solve specific types of problems, but that only goes so far, given the scope of Algebra.

I would suggest starting with a little bit of Pre-Algebra to gain a foundation of the basics. Start here: http://www.algebra-class.com/basic-algebra.html
Once you are comfortable with integers and simplifying and evaluating expressons, move onto solving equations.
This website is a completely free resource designed for students and parents who are having difficulty with Algebra 1. If you follow the units in order, you can learn an entire Algebra curriculum. Take small steps, and really try to understand each concept before moving on!
