Gloria GU (ID: 00000050ff01c471) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 12/20/2023 My friend finally started to love to learn Chinese after I had recommended Hanzi Xiaobai to him. I would recommend to any Chinese who wants their friends to start to learn more about the Chinese language and culture.

者忍 (ID: 0000006c8804793b) Voted 4 ★ - Updated 07/19/2021 Great extension, does more than I expected it (probably more than I needed actually), but I really wish there was a way to customize a bit. For example, it's a little bit difficult to read the translation: the font is small and the contrast is low. Also, I'd love to have the ability to turn off pinyin. In my experience, pinyin makes it harder to memorize characters.

SOKYOU KYOU (STEPHINE) (ID: 000000d5afa736d5) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 07/10/2020 I am studying in Japan. And one day my Japanese friend told me that she is using a tool, hanzi xiaobai, to learn Chinese. She told me that she really likes it because the logo of hanzi xiaobai is so cute and she could make the most use of her time studying Chinese. So out of curiosity, I downloaded hanzi xiaobai and I start to like it because it also teaches stroke orders. Hate to admit it that as a native Chinese speaker, my stroke orders are not always right. Hanzi xiaobai is useful to me in this aspect.

Ada Kuo (ID: 000000b85769901a) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 07/10/2020 My foreign friend asked me to recommend some tools in order to learn the Chinese language. I browsed a lot tools and I liked Hanzixiaobai the best. It is very user-friendly and neat. My friend told me that she really likes it.

Tianyi Feng (ID: 000000e6a6cb7794) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 07/10/2020 Hanzi xiaobai is so useful, beautiful and well organized. There are many resources, like Chinese-learning books, apps, podcasts as well as experienced Chinese tutors. I love the teaching of stroke orders because my stroke orders are sometimes wrong! I like to take a rest to have fun with Hanzi Xiaobai when I want to take a break from my work. I really love it! I would recommend it to any Chinese learners of any levels and even to native Chinese students who have trouble with learning stroke orders.
