Hi, I have heard of MathML, but have also struggled with math accessibility. Now days, you should be able to get decent results by a Google search on math for the blind, or something similar. You might try “math accessibility” as part of your phrase.

The best way currently, is with MathPlayer from Design Science.  The player is free, but for creating, from memory, you also need MathType, which isn't free, but there is a free demo which is enough for what you need to make it work with NVDA.

The link for Design Science is: http://www.dessci.com/en/products/mathplayer/

And the section of our User Guide with more info is: https://www.nvaccess.org/files/nvda/documentation/userGuide.html#ReadingMath

The equation editor which is built into Microsoft Office isn't currently accessible, and we recommend using MathPlayer at this time for Word etc.

Kind regards

Quentin.
