Multilingual Learners
Supporting Multilingual Learners
Giving All Students a Voice in the Learning Journey
At MIND Education, we design our programs so every student can access rigorous math learning, regardless of language proficiency. Our visual-first, neuroscience-based approach removes language as a barrier from the start—so students don’t have to rely on translation or written instructions to learn.
When students learn through visual problem solving, they build deep understanding and confidence—on their terms, in their time. This empowers multilingual learners, emergent bilinguals, and students learning English to fully participate in math class and share their thinking, without being held back by language.
Because when students see the math, they can do the math.
Why It Works for English Learners
No prerequisite language skills
needed to engage with grade-level content
Language development
is integrated into academic content and problem solving
Visual-first learning
supports vocabulary acquisition and comprehension
Immediate feedback
encourages self-correction and independent problem solving
Supports discourse
and academic language development over time
Proven Results
Independent studies show significant gains for multilingual learners and emergent bilingual students using our programs—including improved outcomes on math assessments and increased engagement in mathematical discourse.
Our programs meet multiple ESSA Tier 2 and Tier 3 evidence standards and are used successfully in linguistically diverse classrooms nationwide.
