QUIZZIZ Past simple vs Past continuous,  I personally had a lot of fun creating quizzes with AI Tool because it is an engaging way for students to learn a specific topic. The following quiz I created is based on the topic ‘’present continuous vs past tense’’ as I created it with the intention of helping a friend understand the difference between both topics because he is taking an English course. Question Well and Quizizz are both online platforms designed to help educators create and administer quizzes. Each has its own strengths and personally, discovering Question Well has been the best thing for me. Both platforms can be valuable tools for educators, depending on their specific needs and teaching context.
