Since 2012, Phoenix Tree Publishing has formed close partnerships with Hanban/Confucius Schools/Confucius Classrooms, local schools offering mandarin classes, and countless Chinese teaching organizations in North America to promote Chinese culture and language. We work with teachers and administrators of schools with students ages ranging from 3 to 18 to create HSK test centers, build support centers, provide training and tutoring opportunities, and develop active, student-oriented learning environments. Hanban/Confucius Institute Headquarters, as a public non-profit institution affiliated with the Chinese Ministry of Education, is committed to providing Chinese language and cultural teaching resources and services worldwide. It strives to satisfy the demands of Chinese learners around the world and contributing to the development of multiculturalism. The new HSK test was launched by exclusively by Hanban in an effort to better serve Chinese language learners, with different tests designed to serve the unique needs of students. The new HSK is an international standardized exam that tests and rates Chinese language proficiency. It assesses non-native Chinese speakers’ abilities in using the Chinese language in their daily, academic and professional lives. HSK consists of six levels: from HSK Level I to HSK Level VI.
