2 Hard - I struggled
3 Good - I knew it
4 Easy - It was too easy

Understanding Your Progress

Spaced Repetition

ClassCards uses a smart system called "spaced repetition" to help you remember words better:

Again See the card again in 10 min
Hard See the card again in ~1 hour
Good See the card again tomorrow
Easy See the card again in 4 days

The more you remember a word, the longer the interval becomes. Words you struggle with appear more often until you master them!

Your Statistics

Track your learning progress:

  • Cards Reviewed - Total cards you've studied today
  • Accuracy - Percentage of cards you got right
  • Streak - Consecutive correct answers
  • Progress - How much of the deck you've learned

  2. Enter the front (word) and back (translation) for your card
  3. Your personal cards appear in your main practice flow alongside teacher-assigned vocabulary
Adding vocabulary cards to your personal deck
