The Problem

Kanji is the biggest hurdle in learning Japanese. Students must memorize over 2,000 characters, each with multiple readings and meanings. Building kanji quizzes by hand — picking the right readings, crafting plausible distractors, and grading results — eats hours that should go to teaching.

The Quizzz Solution

Paste any kanji study material and Quizzz generates reading-recognition quizzes in seconds. The AI creates questions that test on'yomi, kun'yomi, and meaning in context — with furigana you can toggle on or off depending on student level. Real-time analytics show exactly which kanji each student struggles with.

Built for Kanji Mastery

On'yomi & Kun'yomi Testing

AI generates questions that distinguish between on'yomi (Chinese-origin) and kun'yomi (native Japanese) readings. Students learn to pick the correct reading in context — the same skill tested on JLPT and school exams.

Furigana Toggle

Show or hide furigana above kanji on a per-quiz basis. Beginners see reading aids while testing recall; advanced learners read kanji without support to build real fluency.

JLPT-Level Kanji Grouping

Generate kanji quizzes calibrated to JLPT N5 through N1. AI selects kanji, readings, and distractors appropriate for each level — from the 100 basic kanji at N5 to the 2,000+ characters at N1.

Stroke Order & Radical Context

Quiz explanations include radical breakdowns and stroke-order hints so students connect visual structure to meaning — reinforcing long-term kanji retention beyond rote memorization.
