Changing the language of comprehension exercises

This setting is for the whole school and can only be accessed by the school's Primary Account Holder. If you're not sure who this is, drop us an email to info@thisisschool.com and we'll let you know!

        Click on your name in the top right-hand corner and select Settings.

        You'll see a drop-down menu for each language covered by your school's subscription. For each one, select the language you'd like the comprehension questions to appear in.

        Click Save.

Note: Currently, not all videos have a comprehension exercise written in the target language. We are always adding more but in the meantime, if you'd like students to have access to a comprehension exercise for every video, select the English language option.
