Varsity Tutors can help with your journey to becoming a registered or practical nurse by setting you up with a Virginia Beach NCLEX prep program. Everyone interested in becoming a nurse has to pass the National Council Licensure Examination (NCLEX) before becoming an official nurse. If you're planning on becoming a registered nurse, that means taking the NCLEX-RN. If your goal is to become a practical nurse, you'll have to take the NCLEX-PN. Both assessments are designed to evaluate your ability to apply medical and scientific concepts practically in a medical setting. As such, the material covered on these assessments is considered to be challenging by most. Even top students at nearby institutions like Old Dominion University and Hampton University have struggled with preparing for the NCLEX alone, turning to additional lessons to help them get ahead. You can enjoy the same assistance by working with a private tutor or enrolling in a Virginia Beach NCLEX prep course. Read on to see how these programs can help set you up for success.
What concepts will be covered during Virginia Beach NCLEX prep?
There are two methods of NCLEX prep that you can choose from: enrolling in an online classroom or registering for private lessons with a tutor. Regardless of which avenue you choose, you'll still learn the same core concepts necessary to help prepare you for the NCLEX-RN or NCLEX-PN. This means you'll cover important topics in social, physical, and biological sciences, as well as how you can apply all these principles practically in a medical setting. Let's take a deeper look at some of the content you can expect from your lessons.
Both versions of the NCLEX cover topics like safe and effective care environments, psychosocial and physiological integrity, and health promotion and maintenance. These are all subjects that you'll learn about in a classroom setting or working with a private tutor. Depending on which NCLEX version you're preparing for, you'll also learn test-specific content like management of care and parenteral therapies for aspiring registered nurses, and coordinated care for practical nurses.
Along with actual test material, these prep programs can also help you improve your test-taking skills. Both NCLEX versions are made up of a mixture of question formats like multiple-choice, fill-in-the-blank, and multiple responses. If you're not familiar with standardized testing, you could struggle with the assessment. Fortunately, a prep program can assist you in building your confidence, as well as improving your organizational and critical reading skills. That way, you'll be better equipped to identify important information from data like charts and tables, and use that information to answer questions correctly.
What are the benefits of the different types of Virginia Beach NCLEX prep?
If you're looking for a structured learning environment where you can follow along with a set curriculum, the online Virginia Beach NCLEX prep class is probably the best choice for you. Here, you'll engage with a professional instructor over our Live Learning Platform, using video chat and virtual whiteboards to follow along as they talk about the content you'll encounter on the actual exam. Because you're learning in a classroom setting, you'll be able to engage with other students also preparing for the NCLEX. That means you can hold in-class discussions while covering important concepts, making it easier to dive deeper into the learning material.
Your other option is working privately with a Virginia Beach NCLEX prep tutor. This will give you the opportunity to study with someone who creates custom-tailored lessons specifically for you. Instead of following a generic lesson plan, you can choose what you want your private instructor to focus on. This is great for targeting general weaknesses or spending more time on areas that you've been struggling with. Best of all, you also have the option of completely skipping over concepts you've already mastered so that you're always using your study time efficiently.
How can I get set up with Virginia Beach NCLEX preparation?
Not everyone benefits from self-study. If you're someone who's looking to get a little more engagement out of your learning experience, we can help. All you have to do is contact Varsity Tutors and speak with one of our educational consultants about the available Virginia Beach NCLEX prep programs. They'll be happy to answer any questions you have and can also assist you with choosing the right program for your goals and expectations. Once you're ready to get started, we'll register you for the next available NCLEX class or assist you with finding a personal tutor who can work around your busy schedule.
