This is Lee.(Because I respect General Robert E. Lee, I usually use 'Lee' as my name.)
How are you?
I have some off days in these days, so I am learning your lessons very hard.
Your comment was 'You nailed it.' Does it mean as same as 'You got it.'?
There are many praises, you already taught: Well done. You did a good job. To thumbs up. You blew my mind. That was fantastic/marvelous. Could you let me know some more expressions? I try to show students various expressions though in text book there is only an expression 'Good job.'
Have a good day.
Sincerely,
Lee

Hi Mr. Lee,
To answer your question: yes, "to nail it" basically has the same meaning as "you got it". More precisely, it would mean something like "you answered the question perfectly".
As for other suggestions, you could use other terms like: "you aced it", "you knocked it out of the park" (baseball related expression), "you rocked it", "you hit the nail on the head", "nice one", etc. There are more, but these are the ones that I use fairly often.
Anyhow, hope that helps and have a nice day!

Thank you for your answer.
I can use those kinds of expressions to my students.
Have a good one!
