CharGem

Learn to read and write Chinese—not just recognize it.

CharGem takes children from tracing to writing from memory, working through grades 1–6 by term and lesson, with real sentences, listening, and games. Start on the web or iPhone/iPad and keep learning with the same account.

THE LEARNING LOOP

Trace it. Hide the guide. Write it yourself.

/ 01

Read and write

Children trace each character stroke by stroke, then remove the guide and write it from memory.

/ 02

2,555 characters

Grades 1–6 are organized by term and lesson, so practice follows a clear progression instead of a random word list.

/ 03

Meaning in context

Every character comes with pronunciation, useful words and a real example sentence—not a shape in isolation.

/ 04

Built for families

Traditional and Simplified Chinese, Zhuyin and Pinyin, no ads, and an optional account for progress across devices.
