Learn Mandarin and prepare for the HSK

One clear route through Mandarin
HSK Guide is an independent Mandarin learning and exam preparation platform. Choose the classic HSK, the three-band nine-level standard, HSKK speaking practice, or General Mandarin without mixing their vocabulary lists. Build a study plan around what you remember, review words with spaced repetition, practise pronunciation, read graded stories, and take timed mock examinations. Start by comparing the curriculum tracks, take the placement test to find your level, or open a free word list. When you are ready for guided practice, use the AI tutor or choose a Pro plan.
