The aim of the study was to explore the unique needs and strengths of multilingual students when learning math and problem-solving and how the teacher should create the education with problem-solving for multilingual students. The result is based on these two questions that were developed in relation with the purpose. This study is based on ten scientific articles chosen from the databases Education Research Complete and ERIC by EBSCO. The result shows that multilingual students should be encouraged to use their different languages as it strengthens their knowledge development. They must also be allowed to work in various ways with problem-solving to develop relevant abilities.Overall, it is crucial for teachers to be aware of the needs of multilingual students and to make appropriate accommodations in order to support their learning and development. Furthermore, the study will show how multilingual students are having some benefits while working with problem-solving such as they are being more creative and adaptable. The conclusion indicates that multilingual students need some support in the work with problem-solving. It is therefore significant that the teacher can accommodate these needs and adjust the problem-solving activities.
