How it works

From sign-up to exam day

  1. 1

    Create your account

    Sign up with Google or your email address. Your progress is saved on every device.

  2. 2

    Set your level and goal

    Pick HSK 2.0 or 3.0, the level you are studying for, and how many new words you want each day.

  3. 3

    Study what is due

    Each day brings your new words and the reviews that are due. Words you remember come back later and later, so they are still there on exam day.

Built-in review

Remember what you learn.

Each word comes back just as it starts to fade, so what you learn adds up instead of slipping away.

Remember a word, and the next review moves further out.

Miss it? It comes back sooner for more practice.

How we calculate

  • Everyone takes the same classes you set. Each class goes over the last class's words once.
  • Memory follows FSRS-6, the model HanyuGuide schedules reviews with. It is the same for all four learners; only when they review is different.
  • The first time a word is taught, 70% are answered right, 10% easily, and 20% wrong and then right.
  • HanyuGuide: studies new words the day they are taught, then reviews each word when the app brings it back.
  • 15 min a day: every evening, rereads the words from the last 2 weeks in order. Older words never come back.
  • Crammer: 30 min each evening in the week before a midterm (week 13) and a final (week 26), on that semester's words.
  • Lessons only: nothing outside class.
  • Each answer takes 10 seconds. A wrong answer is tried again, so it counts twice. Class time is not counted.
  • Words you remember is how many you could recall right now: each word's chance of recall, added up.
  • Real learners vary. The model's settings come from flashcard learners in general, not yet from HanyuGuide learners.

Questions about this resource

Should I study HSK 2.0 or HSK 3.0?

Study the version your test centre lists when you register. HSK 2.0 has 6 levels; HSK 3.0 has 9 levels and its own word lists. HanyuGuide covers both.

What is free, and what needs a subscription?

Anyone can read the word lists and grammar guides and practise with the flashcards and quizzes, but that practice is not saved. Studying with HanyuGuide is paid: new words each day at your level, spaced-repetition reviews that bring each word back right before you would forget it, and your progress, streak and lists saved on every device. It starts with a 7-day trial, no card needed.

Can I try it before I pay?

Yes. Every new account starts with a 7-day trial, no card needed, so you can study for real before you choose a plan. If you subscribe, you can cancel any time from your account.

Your exam date is coming either way.

Start today, and the words you learn this week will still be there when you sit the exam.
