User reviews
Excellent. Don't mind the naysayers, this extension works perfectly, and is applicable for any website I wish to use it!
Thanks!
One of the best extensions. I work as an English teacher. I use it all the time. The only problem I can think of is that there isn't any keyboard shortcut to quickly add new word to the list.
As an ESL instructor, I'm always looking for more tools that my students can use to help with their learning. This tool is very easy to use and is quite accessible. I find that the fill-in-the-blank/cloze answers are great for students who also want to practice their inference skills, and the availability of drag-and-drop answers is also helpful. As the other review mentions, the words selected sometimes feel a bit arbitrary, but I'm willing to overlook that for the ease of practice and accessibility this will offer to my students.
