## Frequently asked questions

**What happens when my student limit is reached?**
You cannot add more students, and a student joining with the code sees “This class is full. Please ask your teacher.” Removing a student frees a place.

**Does changing the class language change my questions?**
No. It changes the buttons and messages students see and the emails. Your questions are shown exactly as you wrote them.
