GED Math Tutor: Live Online Tutoring That Starts at Your Level
Math is the GED test students most often ask us about. Work with a GED math tutor 1-on-1 or in a small live class, starting with a free assessment that shows exactly what you need to learn.
GED Math
Algebra, geometry, fractions, graphs and word problems.
Word problems
Learn to turn a paragraph into an equation you can solve.
Calculator & formulas
Learn to use the on-screen calculator and the formula sheet.
Graphs & data
Read charts and tables, and find slope, mean and median.
A Math Tutor for the GED Test, One Topic at a Time
Mathematical Reasoning runs 115 minutes and covers number sense, algebra, geometry and data. A GED math tutor takes it one topic at a time, at your pace, until the questions stop looking unfamiliar.
You're allowed a calculator for most of the test and you're given a formula sheet, so GED math tutoring is as much about using those tools well as it is about the math itself. Your tutor shows you both, then drills the question types that come up most.
Looking for a GED math tutor near me? Our tutoring is online rather than local, so you can join from wherever you live in the United States, with no travel.

What GED Math Tutoring Covers
You don't need to relearn all of school math. Your tutor focuses on the skills the test uses, starting with the ones you're missing.
Number sense
Fractions, decimals, percentages and ratios come up across the whole test, so gaps here slow everything else down. Many students start here.
Algebra
Expressions, equations, inequalities and functions. Your tutor shows each step and has you try it, so the rules stop feeling random.
Geometry
Area, volume, angles and the Pythagorean theorem. You also learn to find the right formula on the sheet and put the numbers in correctly.
Graphs and data
Slope, charts, mean and median. Much of this is careful reading, so it improves quickly with practice.
Word problems
The skill is turning a paragraph into an equation. You practise picking out what the question is asking and what information you actually need.
Calculator and formula sheet
You're allowed both for most of the test. You practise using them until they save you time on test day rather than cost you time.

GED Math Tutor FAQ
Can I get a GED math tutor online?
Yes. GED SurePass math tutoring is live and online, so you work with a GED math tutor from home on a phone, tablet or laptop, either 1-on-1 or in a small class. Tutoring covers the Mathematical Reasoning test: number sense, algebra, geometry, graphs and word problems.
Is there a GED math tutor near me?
Our tutoring is online, so you can get a math tutor for the GED test wherever you live in the United States. You do not need to travel to a center, and you can choose class times that fit around work and family.
Do I need to be good at math to start?
No. Many students have been out of school for years. The free assessment shows your tutor where to begin, so classes start at your level and build from there.
Can I use a calculator on the GED math test?
Yes, for most of the test. You also get a formula sheet. GED math tutoring covers how to use both, because knowing when to reach for them saves time on test day.
Which pass is best for GED math?
We recommend Study Bee or Study Eagle, because smaller groups give you more time on your own questions. Study Eagle has 1 to 3 students, so it suits you best if math has held you back before. A LearnerOS Standard or Premium pass adds the learning platform for practice between classes.
Is GED math tutoring better than a prep course?
It depends on what you need. A GED math prep course gives you lessons to follow on your own, while a tutor can answer your questions and adjust to where you get stuck. LearnerOS passes combine the two: platform lessons and practice, plus live classes with a tutor.
