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.
