Chinese Zero to Hero!

Summary

I like Chinese Zero to Hero! a lot. Their courses cover HSK1-6 of the HSK Standard Course textbooks. While it’s not in-depth enough to be the only resource you use, few courses are. It’s a great option for those looking to add structure into their independent study routine or are preparing for the HSK tests. It isn’t meant to be a replacement for a textbook, but those with textbook phobia would really benefit from this course.

I Like

• It’s perfect for someone like me that likes to study using lots of different resources but wants to add some structure.
• The videos are well-made with clear explanations. They don’t rely too heavily on pinyin or English.
• Great value at a low price.
• Covers everything from HSK1 to HSK6.

I Don’t Like

• If you don’t use other resources with this course, you’ll struggle to get enough practice.
• Works best used alongside the HSK Standard Course textbooks and not as a standalone course.

Price

There are several different options to buy the courses. You can choose the ultimate bundle which gives you access to everything for $219. The HSK 1 – HSK 4 bundle costs $134 and the HSK 5 – HSK 6 & Path to Fluency bundle costs $109.

You can also purchase each HSK level individually. HSK 1 & HSK 2 cost $29 each, HSK 3 costs $36, and HSK 4, 5, & 6 cost $64 each. As each HSK level is made up of a few smaller parts, those smaller parts can also be purchased separately.
