Nursing/NCLEX Tutoring FAQ
Nursing is a complex field that is absolutely crucial to our society. From emergency medicine to assisting at surgery, nurses play a critical role in our health. If you are pursuing a career in this area, you certainly know how dependant it is upon math and science knowledge, as well as strong organizational and study skills. It can be difficult to keep track of every miniscule detail you learn, but it is these details that can mean the difference between life and death in a clinical setting.
Whether you are just beginning your first nursing course or readying for the NCLEX, Varsity Tutors can be of assistance in helping you gain the knowledge you need to be successful in a clinical setting. We offer nursing/NCLEX tutoring to students of all ages and ability levels all across the United States. Perhaps you are coming to nursing from a previous career, and you require a seasoned tutor to lead you through the intricacies of pathophysiology and pharmacology. We can match you with a tutor who is an expert in one or both of these fields and can design a curriculum around the areas you need to brush up on or learn for the first time. Perhaps you are mere weeks away from your NCLEX test date, and you would like to revisit the concepts assessed within Psychosocial Integrity. One of our tutors can help you do so, and target just the areas that you most need to focus on. Our tutors each possess the academic background and communication skills necessary to piece apart even the most difficult of ideas. No matter your particular learning style, our tutors can cater to your goals, strengths, and weaknesses. Nursing/NCLEX tutoring is always one-on-one to allow our tutors to put your needs first.

Our tutors aim to make nursing/NCLEX tutoring both as convenient and as effective as possible, so they always cater to your specific needs and schedule.
Classroom instruction and group prep are simply not as flexible as the nursing/NCLEX tutoring Varsity Tutors offers nationwide.

Recent Nursing/NCLEX Tutoring Session Notes
During this session, I continued to review a data matrix for the student which consisted of reviewing 10 scientific articles related to medication errors in the field of nursing. I read the remaining six of ten articles and made relevant changes and corrections to the matrix in specific areas like sample size reporting, measured outcome variables, and pertinent results from data. Once the student makes relevant corrections, this assignment (Part 1 of 3) will be completed. Our goal is to have all three parts of his assignment completed before this upcoming weekend.
We went over the material from last time, which included psychiatric medications, lab values, compartment syndrome, and autonomic dysreflexia. Then we continued our conversation about appropriate positioning of patients for various diagnoses and went on to cardiac medications. We did a brief overview of anticoagulants, thrombolytics, antiplatelets, dopamine, digoxin, antihypertensives, antianginals, and antilipemics. The student did a great job following along and processing the information.
The student worked on central tendencies. If he keeps reviewing the review sheet he was given, I'm sure he'll do fine. He had some trouble on standard deviation, but he seemed to be getting the hang of it at the end of the session.
Today, the student and I went over fractions (multiplication, reducing, addition, subtraction), because he has an upcoming test focusing on fractions. He seemed to enjoy fractions and really got the hang of changing fractions to mixed numbers and vice versa.
The student reviewed composite functions today and applied them to SAT practice problems. We reviewed deriving a linear equation from a table of values and the rules of fractions and exponents. We completed a non-calculator SAT practice test together, and she reviewed math concepts involved as needed. We talked through test taking strategies during this practice as well.
We reviewed answers to some of the questions the student missed in his most recent practice test. Before our next session, he will do a shorter practice section, grade his questions from today, and go over several concepts including four physics topics I assigned (work and energy, waves and periodic motion, light and geometrical optics, and atomic and nuclear structure). He should continue to make and review flashcards for the science sections.
