Why Teachers Love Ilini
Create meaningful conversations with real-world videos
Every week, Ilini selects topical videos including news, TV shows, culture, music and comedy. Ideal to make your students feel the pulse of the world in another language, and to start a conversation!
The videos are short, ideally suited for the classroom, and organized by difficulty levels. Your students will love our interactive player, featuring bilingual subtitles, slow motion and an integrated dictionary.
Save hours of class preparation time
On Ilini, every video comes with printable lesson files, including:
- Video transcript and translation
- Comprehension Quiz
- Listening & vocabulary activities (fill the gaps, phrase puzzles, anagrams and more)
Don't bother transcribing a video anymore! Simply pick a video and print out the files.
Give homework... that doesn't feel like homework
Use the Online Classroom to assign homework your students will enjoy. Ask them to watch a video, to take the quiz or to answer/discuss questions in writing. Set a deadline and review your students' work at one glance from your dashboard.
