Preply

Preply is a great way to keep on working for people that move around a lot. Like right now, for instance, I have to unexpectedly move from my country of residence because of a war that's happening in Eastern Europe. As long as I can carry my laptop with me, I can work from wherever I am. All I have to do is update my time zone and the Preply scheduling tool adjusts my lessons accordingly. No need to count hours backward or forward; easy breezy. The online classrooms that my students and I use are also stored online, so even if I can't carry my own laptop with me, I can just log in on my phone and start working again (though that's not ideal).

That, for me, is the biggest plus of using Preply; the flexibility. And, of course, the lovely people you meet from around the world. I have been using the platform for almost two years now. And other than some minor tweaks I would like to see, I'm very positive.

I began teaching on Preply in 2019 and have not looked back since. I teach English with a specialization in workplace communication and intercultural skills. While building up my business, I used the time to attend the webinars and training courses that Preply offers. This was an excellent way to feel confident about the tools that they offer (Video platform, whiteboard, vocabulary tool, comprehensive lesson curriculum, tests and quizzes, etc) before using them in the lessons. I am a working mother so love the flexibility Preply offers, I can set my own schedule and pricing. I teach when I want to who I want and what I want.

I used to think that I didn’t have the “language gene”. That I was too old. That I simply didn’t have time to learn a language. I now know all of these are false… thanks to Preply and my tutors. The platform has taken me from 'Hola' (and that's literally all I could say, although I live in Spain) to speak to everybody in Spanish, about everything! My tutor has built my confidence so much, and the resources that Preply develops continue to help me improve in my own time. A wonderful, simple, easy experience led by an expert team.

Preply is an excellent site for language learning!! It allows you to browse, explore and choose a tutor among a huge selection and variety, ensuring a perfect fit to all of your needs. It also provides a great online platform with tons of materials, in class note taking to keep track of my progress and conversation pointers.
I highly recommend Preply to everyone that’s interested in an effective way to learn a new language or just to practice and improve upon the conversational skills. Excellent experience.

I started teaching Italian on Preply 2 years ago and it has been a good way to find students that I wouldn't have been able to get on my own.
Now I teach Italian to an Argentinian based in Buenos Aires and to some Spaniards based both in Madrid and Sevilla. I love the fact that I can set my own price and choose when I can teach.
I'd definitely suggest Preply and online teaching, but teachers please pay attention to the first lesson: the platform charges 100% of the first lesson, so make sure to generate engagement and loyalty with your student and you will gain money with time. The more you teach to a student the lower the %. Lastly, I also suggest participating to some of their free webinars arranged for tutors to get the most out of the platform.
