Beginner Chinese learners can start from ni hao and work their way up through our beginner courses that will take them through HSK 1 and HSK 2. Start off with pinyin and hide it when you’re ready to learn traditional or simplified characters.

Intermediate Chinese learners (HSK 3 and HSK 4) can begin reading more elaborate stories while learning to use Mandarin Chinese grammar in context. Hide pinyin or use difficult words only to show pinyin for all words above your level.

Advanced Chinese learners (HSK 5 and HSK 6) will enjoy our short stories adapted from Chinese folktales and our collections on the Tang Dynasty, Han Dynasty, and more! Our app also covers topics like everyday life in China, funny stories, business Mandarin, latest trends in China, and Chinese history.

Read Chinese at your Level:
Whether it’s our beginner Chinese courses about life in China, advanced Chinese stories about Chinese history, or snippets of daily conversation, you can find material from HSK 1-6 to practice reading Chinese! When you stumble on a word you can check our Chinese dictionary with translations or jump to Pleco.

Save Time:
The Du Chinese app offers a built-in dictionary, pinyin, translations, and professional audio. Take control of your learning experience with our integrations with popular apps like Pleco, Skritter, and Hack Chinese.

Improve Your Tones:
Mastering tones can be very difficult, especially when you’re trying to mimic a robot! That’s why we have professional recordings by native speakers for every lesson. So when you say hello in Mandarin, people will understand your 你好.

Expand Your Vocabulary:
By learning Mandarin Chinese as you read, you’ll pick up on the most useful words naturally. As you read, save new words and practice them later to build your vocabulary. Our interactive flashcards make it easy or sync them with Skritter or Hack Chinese.
