I have been using Quizlet for over five years as an alternative to writing physical cue cards. It would always take me a really long time to write out cards, so Quizlet offered a digital format. I’m not the strongest memorizer so the cue card format is a helpful way for me to commit facts to memory.

I have Quizlet plus which gives you many additional features as compared to the free version. Some of these include the ability to access cue card sets from other users and specific schools, as well as the ability to enter in a term and retrieve a definition automatically. Plus will also autogenerate cue cards on certain topics to create a helpful quiz. There is also the option for the terms and definitions to be read by the program aloud, which is helpful as an auditory learner.

Additionally, for quizzing you can create matching games and Quizlet will generate a test to review materials with a variety of written answer, multiple choice and matching. Quizzes can be generated based on your existing knowledge level, which it will determine based on your performance on previous quizzes.

Quizlet has proven an excellent study aid for me throughout high school and university. I think it’s an excellent tool for students with learning disabilities such as dyslexia and ADHD. When you aren’t able to access extra support, Quizlet can provide some of that needed support. It’s a time saver and the variety it offers makes it so everyone has access to a quiz format that will help them the best in their studies.
