Default Can you WOK on an electric coil stovetop?

I have a glass top stove and prefer a flat bottomed wok for use on
that stove. It works fine. I can get it plenty hot, though
recovery time is a little slow if you overwhelm it with ingredients.
I did not like using a round bottom wok and ring on the glass top.
