From Word List to Graded Practice in Three Steps
Built for tutors who prepare new vocabulary practice every week.
Paste your material
An academic word list, a reading passage, or your own lesson text. You can also upload a PDF and let AI extract the text.
Create the gaps
Click the target words yourself, or let AI generate gap-fill questions (6 per day on the free plan). Add hints, explanations, and alternative answers.
Share & review results
Send one URL to your class or tutee. Each student's submission is auto-graded, and you review the answer history per student.
Practice in a Sentence-Completion Style
IELTS reading and listening papers ask candidates to write the missing word, not pick it from a list. Typed-answer gaps with case-insensitive matching let your students practice producing the word—then see instantly whether it was right.
Example gap-fill question
Researchers must ______ their findings before publishing them in academic journals.
Accepted: verify, validate · Case-insensitive · Hint: starts with "v"
Why typed answers matter
Multiple choice tests recognition; a written answer tests recall and spelling—the skills students actually need in the exam room. You can still switch any question to multiple choice when you want an easier warm-up.

Built for Exam-Prep Teaching
AI From Passages & PDFs
Generate gap-fill questions from a pasted passage, an uploaded PDF, or a photo of a page. Free plan includes 6 AI generations per day.
Written-Answer Gaps
Students type the missing word, mirroring the style of sentence-completion tasks. Case-insensitive matching avoids unfair zeros.
Alternative Answers
Accept British and American spellings or several valid words per gap, so grading reflects what you would actually accept in class.
Per-Student Results
Every submission is auto-graded with answer history, so you see which academic words each tutee still gets wrong.
