How to make a quiz from a YouTube video
Paste the YouTube link
Any public or unlisted video up to three hours long. It does not need subtitles: Temaly transcribes the speech itself.
Choose subject, level and focus
Say who the quiz is for and what it should check. Temaly drafts the questions; you edit, add or remove any of them.
Share one link
Students open it on a phone or computer, type their name and answer with the video beside the questions. Each question can jump to the moment in the video where the answer is.

A lesson video for language learners
A listening quiz, a gap fill with the new words from the video, and a matching exercise pairing each word with its meaning.
A science explainer
Short-answer questions that ask students to explain the process in their own words, plus multiple choice to check the terms.

Questions teachers ask
Is the YouTube quiz generator free?
Yes. You can start at once, without signing up. Create an account later only if you want your quizzes on another device.
Does the video need subtitles?
No. Temaly listens to the speech in the video, so videos without captions work too.
Which videos work?
Public and unlisted YouTube videos up to three hours long. A short video is ready in about a minute; longer ones take a little more.
Do students see their result?
Yes. The answers are marked automatically, so each student sees the score on handing in, and you see every answer, question by question.
