    Thank you for the introduction! I've never used Genially before, it seems like a great platform offering a wealth of resources for teachers to design interactive classrooms, however, to be honest, it's still too challenging for some new teachers, including me, to design a classroom from scratch, even though I know there is a wealth of materials available to me, and it's a challenge to select and organise them, especially without examples to reference:(

    Hi Mengmeng, thank you for letting me know a now teaching tool. It seems like Genially is a tool that provides fun while learning in the classroom. That's good! However, I think you can add more details to describe how can Genially be used in the classroom, which may make the readers clearer about this tool. In addition, I have a question, what do you think the differences between PPT and this tool?
