Math for grades 6 to 12

Math help that meets every student at their own level.

At Minds in Action Education Lab, experienced math teachers guide each student in person, and Mia, our AI study partner, keeps them practising at their own level, at the lab and at home.

A student's path through four algebra skills Simplifying expressions builds on the distributive property and on combining like terms. The distributive property builds on properties of real numbers and on multiplying rational numbers. The student, shown as an orange dot, has stepped back from simplifying expressions to the distributive property.

The orange dot is the student. Stuck on simplifying, they step back to the distributive property with Mia. The teacher has the same map for every student, so they know exactly where to step in.

Every student gets stuck somewhere different.

Finding where the trouble starts is the hard part. Mia finds it for each student, and the teacher's time goes where it's needed most.

How the lab works

A lab, not a lecture

Instead of one lesson for the whole room, each student works on what they need. The teacher moves between students, helping where it counts.

At the lab

  • With Mia

    Each student works on their own path

    Students work through math at their own level. Mia picks what comes next and gives hints when they're stuck.

  • The teacher

    Knows where every student is

    Mia shows the teacher what each student has mastered, what's missing, and who is stuck, even students who haven't asked.

  • The teacher

    Steps in where it helps

    One to one, or in a short huddle when several students are stuck on the same thing: to fill a gap, get back on track, or move faster. Students can ask any time.

  • Together

    Students learn together

    Students in the same group can talk a problem through together, with the teacher close by. Explaining an idea out loud is one of the best ways to learn it.

At home

Mia keeps going. Between lab sessions, students keep working with Mia at home. The teacher sees that work too, so the next session starts where they left off.

A study partner that listens, then helps

Understands what the student meant

Students write answers their own way, in symbols or in words. If Mia isn't sure what they meant, she asks. Then a strict math checker marks the answer.

Finds the missing piece

Math skills build on each other. When a student is stuck, Mia looks at the skills underneath, finds the shaky one, and comes back once it's solid.

Teaches instead of telling

Hints start small and grow one step at a time, so students reach the answer themselves. Mia doesn't hand it over.

Keeps teachers and parents in the picture

Mia shows the teacher where each student stands and who needs help, and gives parents a clear view of their child's progress.

A look inside

One lab, two views

The student works with Mia. The teacher has the whole group in view and knows where to go next.

Distributive property Ask the teacher

Simplify: 4(x + 3)

Student4x + 3

MiaClose. Think about what the distributive property says about multiplying a number by a sum.

Student4 times x plus 4 times 3, so 4x plus 12

MiaI read that as 4x + 12Yes, that's it

That's right. The 4 multiplies both terms.

Where we stand

How we think about learning

People first

Teachers get to know each student and decide when to step in. Mia gives every student practice and attention in between, and never replaces the teacher.

A path for each student

No endless repetition. Mia guides each student along their own path, one step at a time.

Responsible AI

Every question comes from a curriculum built on the official learning standards, and teachers and curriculum developers check it before students see it. The AI talks with the student; clear, checkable rules decide what's right and what comes next.

Built on learning research

How Mia decides that a skill is learned follows research on how students learn, and every rule is open to review. Each time a teacher steps in, we note what helped, so the lab keeps learning what works.
