Coming soon: Practice for New HSK 1 workbook
A printable, unofficial workbook for the new HSK Level 1, based on the 2025 HSK exam syllabus (Level 1: 300 words).
What's inside
- A short guide to tones, with a focus on the third tone
- All 300 Level 1 words grouped by theme, each with pinyin, English and an example sentence
- Writing practice for all 248 characters, with stroke order taken from an openly licensed dataset
- Original matching, fill-in-the-blank and short reading exercises
- Two unofficial mock reading tests (20 questions each) with a full answer key
- A pinyin index
Why 300 words and not 500? The 500 figure seen online comes from the 2021 teaching standard, not the 2025 exam syllabus. Read more.
