FAQ
Common pre-purchase questions are answered here to reduce friction for learners and parents.
What level is this platform for?
ACA supports absolute beginners, current HSK preparation, New HSK Levels 1-6, and advanced learners using the 7-9 A/B/C tracks. Confirm your exam version with your test center.
Can members access all courses?
Access depends on your plan. HSK1, HSK1–3, all-access, and teacher plans each unlock a different range of content, clearly listed on the pricing cards.
What is the difference between study cards and course packs?
Course packs are built for structured, lesson-by-lesson study, while study cards zero in on a single word, grammar point, or everyday phrase for quick, targeted review.
Can access be activated after bank transfer?
Confirm the order on the payment-options page first. Only configured public payment links are shown; otherwise contact support and wait for confirmed instructions before sending funds.
What is different about the teacher plan?
Student plans focus on learning paths, courses, and study cards. The teacher plan is built for classroom use, with growing support for handouts, teaching assets, and classroom activities.
