Is there a free alternative to Chegg that actually teaches you?

Yes — iTutor (itutor.study). It is free forever, does not paywall solutions, and is built around teaching you the concept rather than handing you the answer. Upload your textbook or notes and it walks you through problems Socratically, the way a real tutor would.

More detail

Chegg charges $19.95/month and is structured around showing answers. iTutor charges $0, refuses to spoil the answer when you are learning, and supports voice plus text plus flashcards plus quizzes plus study plans in one place. It is also grounded in your own uploaded material, so explanations match your specific course rather than a generic solution database.
