LearnChineseeιεΏζ欲ε°ι θ―»READ IT ANY WAY YOU LIKE
Stop switching between a textbook and a dictionary. One continuous story, told six times over, once for every HSK level, using only the words you'd actually know by that point, so you're never lost and never bored. Tap any word for instant pinyin, tone, and meaning. Show or hide hanzi, pinyin, and tone independently, so the text always matches exactly how much support you need today. Pin words by exactly why they're tripping you up, and review just that. Read it freely, or follow the guided course: either way, it's built to get you actually reading, not just memorizing flashcards.

The opening line of the real HSK 1 story. Try the toggles above, or tap a word for its full detail β including stroke-order animation β the same interaction you get in the full reader.
A walkthrough of the chapter, line by line β hanzi, pinyin, and meaning explained as you watch, not just left for you to puzzle out.
A real chapter from HSK 1 Courses β video, grammar breakdown, and a practice question for every lesson, plus a certificate waiting at the end of each level. Try the tabs above.

Same story, taught properly, so nothing is left to guesswork: a video walkthrough for every chapter, grammar broken down point by point instead of buried in a textbook appendix, and a checkpoint exam to prove it actually stuck. Clear every level and you walk away with a certificate to show for it. Move at your own pace, chapter by chapter, or let the course carry you all the way from zero to fluent across all six HSK levels.
Built around one idea: meet you where you are.

The same story, growing with you.
HSK 1 opens with 152 words. By HSK 6, the story is drawing on the full 4,936-word vocabulary: narrative and dialogue side by side, always using only what you should already know at that level.
Questions
Do I need to know any Chinese to start?+
No. HSK 1 assumes zero prior knowledge, and every word is defined the moment you tap it.
Can I cancel any time?+
Yes, from your account page, whenever you like. No lock-in, no contracts.
Is my payment secure?+
Billing is handled entirely by Stripe. We never see or store your card details.
Does this actually help with the official HSK exam?+
Yes. Every word and grammar point is drawn directly from the official HSK 1β6 vocabulary and grammar lists.
What do I need to run it?+
Any modern browser: phone, tablet, or desktop. Nothing to install.
