01Handwriting & stroke order

Don't just read it. Write it.

Reading a character and writing one from memory are two different skills. Every word comes with a stroke-order animation, then you trace it yourself, stroke by stroke, on a practice grid until it sticks. Hit Practice and draw with your mouse or finger.

Watch the animation, or write it yourself.
02Dictation & flashcards

Hear it, write it, remember it.

Run through the week's words with dictation, type or handwrite your answer, and the ones you keep missing come back more often until they don't. Tap the card to flip it.
