MTSS math support, without the tier juggling
Live 1-on-1 help across Tiers 1, 2, and 3, inside the block you already run.
Goblins runs all three MTSS tiers with one live 1-on-1 tutor. Tier 1 practice, Tier 2 intervention, and Tier 3 intensity happen inside the block you already run. Tier-locked stacks split those jobs across three products, and every handoff costs weeks, a referral meeting, and a restart with a stranger.
Goblins lets students speak and draw to learn math. That lets the tutor pinpoint exactly where mistakes and misconceptions arise. Support intensifies the moment a student needs it. When a wrong answer traces to a foundation from two grades back, the tutor walks the student back and rebuilds, without a referral or a schedule change.
Tier 1: the whole class, actually practicing
Every student in the room gets a live 1-on-1 tutor that watches their canvas while they draw and talk through their thinking, in whatever language they think in. The tutor asks Socratic questions the moment a line goes sideways, never the answer. Teachers who want it can give the tutor their own face and voice, an option kids love.
You get the room back.
Tier 2: small groups that pick themselves
Formative insights and session replays pick your Tier 2 groups from the written work itself. Assign targeted skills by standard, or upload the worksheet your intervention block already uses. The tutor scaffolds down mid-problem, so the reteach starts before the group even meets.

Tier 3: 1-on-1 intensity, every day
On Goblins Max, live help is unlimited, so daily 1-on-1 intensity stops being a staffing question. Tier 3 asks for one adult per student every day, and no master schedule survives that. Goblins covers K-12 math, with grade 4 and below in beta, and students keep the same tutor at home.
Teachers, in their words
“I get to in real time see how they're doing and if they understand it, and I can pull small groups. ... It's really, really been a game changer for me.”
Renee Schuch · 6th Grade Math · Deer Valley
“Let's back this up to maybe something that we should have done two chapters ago. Do you understand this? Can you explain this? Okay, great. So from there, we're going to build on that and get back up to question number one.”
Rich Grell · HS Math Teacher, 22 yrs
“I had a girl miss a quiz and I said, okay, this test is going to count double. She got 108 on the quiz. She did every single Goblins assignment.”

Frequently asked questions
Yes, and your MTSS team keeps the entry and exit decisions. Assign targeted skills by standard, and each student works with a live 1-on-1 tutor that watches them draw and speak through every problem. When a step goes wrong, it asks Socratic questions and draws visuals and mini lessons next to the problem, and it never hands over the answer.
Yes. On Goblins Max, live 1-on-1 help is unlimited, so a student can get daily 1-on-1 attention across K-12 math, with grade 4 and below in beta. Your interventionist still owns the plan and the exit decision, and Goblins does the daily work inside it.
Yes, in real time. While students work, the teacher view shows who is stuck right now and on which problem, straight from the written work, so you pull the right students the same period instead of after grading.
Granular tracking against your state standards, updated as students work. Teams export the analytics per student, per standard, and per skill, so documentation for MTSS meetings comes straight from the record.
Yes. Students speak and draw in whatever language they think in, and the tutor teaches in that language. There is no supported-languages list to check and no cap.
Nothing to start. The free tier gives every student 15 live help-enabled problems per month, no credit card required. Goblins Max, priced per school or district, makes live help unlimited and adds standards and engagement reporting.
Yes. Goblins complies with COPPA, FERPA, and student data privacy laws in all 50 states. The Gates Foundation funds Goblins and the Chan Zuckerberg Initiative partners with us, and both hold student data handling to a strict bar.
