A Chinese App for Teachers and Their Students
A Chinese app for teachers has to respect one truth: class time is scarce. Chenjin works as the input half of your course, the graded reading, listening, and vocabulary review students do between lessons.
The free plan covers what a classroom needs to try it: graded articles, a full dictionary, games, and printable worksheets.
Reading students can do unassisted
The library grades hundreds of articles from HSK 1 to 7, each with optional pinyin, audio, and a tap dictionary, so "read something at your level this week" is an assignment that runs itself. The built-in help answers the questions that would otherwise wait for you.
Worksheets you can print tonight
The free practice sheet generator prints 田字格 grid worksheets with stroke-order guides for any character list you type in, no account needed. Character pages animate the stroke order and explain each character's radicals for the students who ask why.
The last ten minutes of class
Escape rooms, mystery cases, and spoken shop scenarios, all tagged by HSK level, all free, and all won by understanding the Chinese. On a projector they work as a whole-class activity; on student devices they're the homework nobody complains about.
Prep materials from any text
Paste any Chinese text into the free pinyin converter to get word-aware pinyin with per-word meanings, handy for building handouts or previewing a text's difficulty before you assign it.
Frequently asked questions
Can I track my students' progress?
There's no teacher dashboard; accounts are individual. Students can see their own vocabulary map, trophies, and streaks, and plenty of teachers have them share a screenshot as lightweight accountability.
What does it cost a class?
The free plan covers classroom use: three articles a day per student, the full dictionary, the games, the vocabulary map, and the printable tools. The paid plan is an individual upgrade, not a site license.
Simplified or traditional?
Both. The reader and dictionary can display either script, so the same articles serve a simplified classroom and a traditional one.
