Use Cases

In the modern classroom, it can be challenging to ensure all students grasp key concepts—especially when your source material is a fast-paced YouTube video. That’s where to-teach.ai steps in with its Glossary creation tool. By extracting critical vocabulary and concepts directly from your chosen YouTube video, you can build a custom glossary that clarifies even the most specialized or technical terms. This approach doesn’t just simplify lesson planning; it boosts learner engagement, fosters better comprehension, and solidifies student understanding of the subject matter.

Why Create a Glossary from a YouTube Video?
