Turn your word list into a vocabulary quiz
Vocabulary checks are one of the most frequent things language teachers run — and one of the most repetitive to build by hand. The faster way is to drop in the words (or the text they came from) and get a quiz that tests them at the right level, in the right language.
What a good vocabulary quiz needs
Your words, not a generic list
The quiz should test the exact vocabulary you introduced — the unit’s new words, the terms from today’s reading — not a stock list that only partly overlaps with your lesson.
Meaning in context, not just definitions
Recognising a definition isn’t the same as using a word. Fill-in-the-blank and in-context questions check whether students can actually apply the vocabulary.
The right language and level
Beginners may need the quiz framed in their own language; stronger groups can work entirely in the target language. Difficulty should scale from A1 to advanced.
