Get "to be" flashcards from your own notes, ready to study
Ready-made PDF sets rarely match what your teacher covered. Upload your handout, slides or a photo of the page, and DeckOwl writes flashcards from your material.
Why a custom to be flashcards PDF beats a generic one
Ready-made to be flashcards in PDF form are easy to find, but they rarely match the verb forms and examples your class actually covered. DeckOwl takes your own handout or notes and turns them into cards you can review in the browser.
- Cards built from your own grammar notes, not a generic list
- Pronoun-to-form pairs for present and past tense
- Spaced repetition that brings back the forms you miss
- PDF export included on the Plus plan
Your material, your cards
Upload a PDF, DOCX, PPTX, plain notes or a photo of a worksheet. Photos are read with text recognition.
Spaced repetition built in
Cards you miss come back sooner, so the forms of be stick instead of blurring together.
Export when you need a PDF
Plus exports to PDF, DOCX, Anki and CSV, so you can print a set or move it into another app.
How it works
Upload your notes
Add the grammar handout, slides or a photo of the page your teacher used.
Generate flashcards
DeckOwl writes question and answer cards from the verb forms in your material.
Study, then export
Review in the browser for free, or export a PDF on Plus when you want a printed copy.
Each card can pair a subject pronoun with the correct form of be, such as I am, you are, she is, and we are. Spaced repetition then brings weaker cards back more often, so the forms become automatic.
