The present disclosure relates to a method and apparatus for inputting equations. An equation input apparatus includes a learning context recognizer for extracting learning context information regarding a learner; a target equation group extractor for generating a target equation group including target mathematical symbols based on the extracted learning context information; and a predicted equation provider for providing a predicted mathematical symbol list relating to information, input or selected from the target equation group by user command, and for reflecting an equation selected from the predicted mathematical symbol list in the input or selected information.
