Frequently Asked Questions
The TEAS (Test of Essential Academic Skills) Math section assesses your ability to apply mathematical concepts to real-world healthcare scenarios. It covers algebra, geometry, measurement, and data interpretation—skills essential for nursing and allied health programs. Performing well on TEAS Math is critical since many healthcare schools use this score as a key admission criterion.
Many students struggle with word problems that require translating real-world scenarios into mathematical equations, as well as multi-step problems that demand careful organization and attention to detail. Time management is another frequent challenge—the TEAS Math section requires both accuracy and speed. Personalized tutoring helps you develop problem-solving strategies, break down complex questions into manageable steps, and build the confidence needed to tackle unfamiliar problem types.
Your first session focuses on understanding your current strengths, weaknesses, and test-taking goals. You'll likely work through sample TEAS Math problems together so your tutor can identify which concepts need reinforcement—whether that's algebra fundamentals, geometry applications, or test strategy. This assessment guides your personalized tutoring plan, ensuring every session targets your specific needs.
Rather than memorizing procedures, personalized tutoring helps you see the 'why' behind mathematical concepts—how algebra connects to real-world dosage calculations or how geometry applies to medical imaging. Tutors use targeted practice and multiple problem-solving approaches to help you recognize patterns and build conceptual understanding. This deeper grasp makes it easier to apply knowledge to unfamiliar problem types on test day.
Word problems require translating English into mathematical language—a skill that improves with guided practice and strategy. Tutors teach you to identify key information, recognize what the problem is asking, and select the right approach. You'll work through healthcare-specific scenarios (medication calculations, patient ratios, lab values) so you're comfortable with the context and can focus on the math.
Absolutely. Math anxiety often stems from past negative experiences or gaps in foundational understanding. Personalized tutoring builds confidence by working at your pace, celebrating progress, and helping you see that you're capable of mastering these concepts. As you successfully solve problems and understand the 'why' behind each step, anxiety decreases and confidence grows—making test day feel much more manageable.
Varsity Tutors connects you with tutors who have strong mathematical backgrounds and experience preparing students for healthcare entrance exams. Look for tutors familiar with TEAS-specific content, problem types, and time management strategies. Your tutor should be able to explain concepts clearly, adapt to your learning style, and help you develop test-taking strategies alongside content mastery.
Improvement depends on your starting point and how frequently you meet with your tutor. Many students see noticeable progress within 4-6 weeks of consistent tutoring, especially when combining sessions with independent practice. If you're preparing for an upcoming exam, starting early gives you time to build conceptual understanding rather than cramming procedures—leading to stronger, more lasting improvement.
