Old HSK or HSK 3.0?
The HSK switches to the 3.0 format worldwide on 13 December 2026 (announced on chinesetest.cn on 9 September 2026). If you have a test date, tell your teacher in your first class so practice matches the format you will sit.
Can I move up or down a level?
Yes. If the class feels too easy or too hard after the first weeks, tell your teacher and we’ll help you move to the right class.
Not sure this is your level?
