Level 1 (HSK 1)

Level 1 is ideal for those who have zero experience in learning Chinese. This level is equivalent to the first-year of a Chinese course in college (Chinese 101) or high school (Chinese 1). We will use the HSK 1 Standard Course for this level.

Students are expected to complete this level in 10-12 months.

Level 3 (HSK 3, Intermediate Low)

Best for students who have studied Chinese for at least 1.5 years or who have scored 90 or higher on both the HSK1 and HSK2 tests. Students need to be able to read and write at least 600 characters.

Writing ability is not a requirement but strongly preferred. Although this class is accessible for those who are conversationally fluent, it might be challenging for students who don’t read or write any Chinese characters. 

How do I know if this is my level?

Try to describe what you did last weekend or what you do for work. Can you manage to have a 5-minute interactive conversation with a native Chinese-speaking person using only Chinese? If the answer is yes, you should be able to manage this level.

Students are expected to complete this level in 18-24 months.
