Five ways teachers use it

  1. 1

    Open the first lesson with the alphabet quiz: nobody needs to read Armenian yet, and everyone remembers the letters they got wrong.

  2. 2

    Warm up with a question that counts no points, so shy students can answer without pressure.

  3. 3

    Make the last question count double, so the podium is decided at the very end.

  4. 4

    Send students to the letter pages afterwards: every letter has its own page with audio. /armenian-alphabet

  5. 5

    Turn this week's unit into a quiz: pick the course, level and unit, and Live builds it from the lessons' own exercises. Edit it, then reuse it every year.
