My Take
It is a very OK teaching tool. It falls short when trying to deliver full scale lessons plans like lectures. It is really to go over short and sweet material or to quickly review already taught material.
How I Use It
This application can see some use in teaching subjects like math. Small basic concepts can be shown in a short tiktok video. For example, you can show an example of how to do cross multiplication in the span of one tiktok. You could also set up a problem and asks the students to comment their answer in the comment section below. I would not recommend for long lesson plans that require deep and thorough explanation of topics

Very interactive and fast paced!
Overall, I think this tool isn't the best for teaching, but can be very useful for some subjects as a quick lesson.

At the same token, since it's so short, you can't teach much in that time frame.
