Our 
Mission

We’re on a mission to boost the retention of students in STEM fields.

At Boost, we envision a world where students of diverse backgrounds have the strong mathematical foundations they need today, to thrive in successful STEM careers tomorrow.

Loved by educators.
Trusted by learners.

"I’m very excited about the possibilities with Boost and can’t wait to incorporate it into my teaching! As an educator and YouTube creator I have experienced the power of video first hand. The level of student engagement with a topic is often determined by the personality of the instructor, and video provides the opportunity for this to come across much more than with writing alone. If you can entertain the students, as well as inform, engagement is much higher, and inevitably increased achievement will follow."
