Frequently Asked Questions

The TEAS Math section assesses your ability to solve problems using algebra, geometry, and measurement concepts—skills essential for success in nursing and healthcare programs. This section tests both computational skills and conceptual understanding, meaning you need to not just get the right answer, but understand the reasoning behind it. Strong TEAS Math performance significantly impacts your overall TEAS score and your competitiveness for nursing school admissions.

Many students struggle with word problems—translating real-world scenarios into mathematical equations—and multi-step problems that require combining several concepts. Others find themselves rusty on foundational algebra or geometry after years away from math, or they experience math anxiety that affects their test performance even when they know the material. Personalized tutoring helps you identify which specific concepts need reinforcement and builds your confidence through targeted practice.

A tutor works with you to identify knowledge gaps, break down complex problems into manageable steps, and teach you problem-solving strategies that work for your learning style. Rather than memorizing formulas, you'll develop conceptual understanding so you can tackle unfamiliar problems on test day. Personalized 1-on-1 instruction also addresses math anxiety by building your confidence through success and showing you that you're capable of mastering this material.

Your first session focuses on assessment and goal-setting. A tutor will review your current math background, discuss your target TEAS score, and identify which topics (algebra, geometry, word problems, etc.) need the most work. You'll also discuss your learning preferences and any math anxiety you experience, so the tutor can tailor their approach to help you succeed.

Word problems require you to translate English into mathematical language—a skill that improves with guided practice and strategy. Tutors teach you to identify key information, determine which operations to use, and work through problems step-by-step. With practice and feedback, you'll recognize patterns in different problem types and develop confidence in your ability to solve them.

Improvement depends on your starting point and how frequently you work with a tutor, but many students see meaningful progress within 4-8 weeks of consistent tutoring combined with practice between sessions. If you're targeting a specific score for nursing school applications, starting tutoring 2-3 months before your TEAS test date gives you adequate time to build both skills and confidence.

Look for tutors with strong math backgrounds, specific experience preparing students for the TEAS exam, and a track record of helping students improve their scores. They should understand both the content and the test format, and be able to explain concepts clearly in multiple ways. Varsity Tutors connects you with expert tutors who have proven experience helping students master TEAS Math.

Contact Varsity Tutors to discuss your TEAS goals and timeline. We'll match you with a tutor experienced in TEAS Math preparation who understands your learning needs. You can then schedule your first session and begin working toward your target score with personalized, expert instruction tailored to your strengths and challenges.
