FAQ

Do I need an account to start?

No. You can start the first HSK lessons, look up characters, practise stroke order, and use the core tools without an account.

Is this an official HSK course?

No. HanziHero is an independent learning product, not an official HSK provider. We use published HSK vocabulary as the reference, then make characters easier to learn through radicals, similar-character comparison, stroke-order practice, short lessons, and adaptive review.

How do the lessons make characters easier to remember?

Each short lesson combines the parts of learning that matter: sound, visible structure, stroke order, a useful comparison, and retrieval practice that returns in later review.

Start with four characters, not a mountain of flashcards.

Open a short lesson, write with a guide, compare what is easy to confuse, and let review bring it back when it matters.
