Do you know any tips or tricks when it comes to balancing chemical equations? or is there only the annoying process of guess and check?

"annoying process of guess and check"

A'yup. For non-redox, that's about it. Experience plays a big role in balancing, but the annoyment factor is a big part of why getting the experience is so annoying. (Sorry, couldn't resist.)

Take a look at the Problem Sets here:

There are some solved examples in #1 and then #3 and 4 only have the problem and answer, no explanation. There are some videos also. Try searching for other videos. Try Kahn Academy's videos.
