Redefining the Way my Students Engage in the Classroom

Published on 09 Jan, 2026

Teaching young learners has always been about more than delivering content. It's about keeping little minds focused, curious, and confident as they build their first academic foundations.

As an experienced Early Years and Elementary educator, I work with students across different countries, and abilities, including learners who require additional support. My background in inclusive education ensures that diverse learning needs are met, particularly with my core subject specialisation of English Language Development and Foundational Mathematics. Over time, this experience has shaped my structured yet engaging teaching approach, ensuring lessons are inclusive, effective and outcome-driven.

As digital learning continues to play a larger role in classrooms, integrating interactive tools into learning becomes an integral part.

Bringing fun and interaction into everyday lessons

Integrating Kung Fu Quiz into my lessons has significantly redefined the way my students engage. ​​By turning ordinary YouTube videos into interactive quizzes, lessons became more lively, and my students absolutely love it.

From the sound effects that light up my students' faces to the customisable features that fit any subject, Kung Fu Quiz makes intersection more natural rather than forced. Whether it's for review, reinforcement, or simply sparking excitement in class, it helps me to make learning purposeful.

Almost immediately, I noticed students were more focused and engaged. Instead of passively watching, they actively participated throughout the lesson. The quizzes encouraged them to think, respond, and apply what they had just learned, improving both retention and confidence.

Kung Fu Quiz turned video-based lessons into an active learning experience, where students remain attentive and retain and apply what they learn. Not just that, learning outcomes became easier to track with its dynamic and data driven report insights.

Teaching Beyond Borders

Through my association with SpectrumWise, a global online learning academy delivering multi-subject instruction and exam preparation, I teach learners from diverse educational backgrounds to move beyond surface learning. My lessons are designed to move learners beyond surface understanding by combining:

  • Structured instruction
  • Meaningful academic conversations
  • Gamified learning real-time feedback

Kung Fu Quiz fits naturally into this approach, supporting measurable learning outcomes while keeping students engaged.

Most Rewarding Aspect of Teaching

For me, the most rewarding moment in teaching is when I witness measurable growth in students' confidence and academic performance, particularly in their reading, language, and Math skills. Watching them actively participate, apply concepts, and go from uncertainty to mastery would make any teacher feel proud and reinforces why engaged learning truly matters.

And for all this, Kung Fu Quiz has become one of the tools that supports this journey — helping transform lessons into moments where students don't just learn, but take part in learning.
