I've been learning English on Preply for just over two years and I am extremely satisfied. The app and website are fantastic, making it convenient to learn a foreign language with an professional tutor directly from another country, flexible scheduling and an interactive platform. The level of trust is very high. Special thanks to the Preply team for their quick support in case of any questions!
Bad experience from all aspects
Anton Br
I signed up with Apple. Then I wanted to login to Preply website from a browser on a Windows laptop, but I couldn’t, since I didn’t have any password. Did not find a way to speak with a real person from Preply support. So I had to set up the password manually and only after I got all credentials to login. And while doing that I was logged out from the app every 5 seconds.When searching for a tutor, same tutor can appear twice or even three times in the search results. If you like several tutors, there is no way to add them to favorites or smth similar, I was saving the links to their profiles in my Notes to review the shortlisted candidates.Not clear what native speaker actually means - when a tutor is from a non-English speaking country, does not live in an English-speaking country and speaks with a strong foreign accent - why such tutors are regarded as natives?I selected a tutor and had one class with her. Afterwards I bought 5 hours and scheduled another class with her. But one day before the class she quit. So now I need to look for another tutor. And today I received a notification: hey, schedule another class with K. (tutor’s name). So I thought that my tutor is back - not at all, still inactive, this was just a wrong message, since naturally one cannot schedule another class with inactive tutor.
A paid lesson disappeared and my time was wasted

I am extremely disappointed with this platform and the quality of customer support.I purchased a trial lesson with a tutor, carefully chose the tutor, set aside time for the lesson, and prepared to start my learning journey. However, the lesson never happened. The tutor rescheduled the lesson twice, and when I tried for the third time to start the lesson, the tutor became unavailable — it seems that I was simply blocked, and I no longer even have the option to leave a review about this tutor.As a result, I was left without the paid lesson and spent 3 days waiting and dealing with rescheduling issues.The most frustrating part is not only losing money, but also losing valuable time that I could have spent actually learning the language.The issue of a tutor disappearing after a lesson has already been paid for has still not been resolved. I am sure I am not the only user who has faced this situation, where someone pays for a lesson, spends their time, prepares for it, and ends up with nothing.The offered 100% discount for one trial lesson is the bare minimum that could have been provided in this situation, but it does not solve the actual problem or give back the time that was wasted.After this experience, I cannot recommend this platform. I am extremely dissatisfied with the quality of the service and the way users are treated.
Developer Response
It's truly disheartening to hear about your experience with the lesson and the challenges you faced with the tutor's availability. We appreciate you sharing this feedback, as it highlights important areas for improvement in our service. Your concerns about the support quality have been noted, and we're committed to making improvements. We hope you find a positive path forward in your language learning journey.
THE REVIEW
walframich
So, I gave you low grade, because i had bad experience of using your app. I’m 15-year and i had bought a subscription for a month (twice a week) for learning italian. The italian tutor decided to give me a discount, because i’m ukrainian and the number of hours i bought earlier had increased, i had been studying for a month twice a week as i planned, because of my studying at school online i didn’t have the time to study more. In the end of a month all my hours just disappeared (IT WAS 72€)then i wrote to the Preply support, but after all, negotiations ended with nothing. It is a pity, that foreigners are trying to help learn the language necessary for communicating, but the company owned by the Ukrainian is earning money in this way.
The app just got better - your lessons can, too. Download the latest version of our app.
