Preply

Preply is a language tutoring marketplace that connects learners with 32,000+ verified human tutors for personalized, 1-on-1 language instruction. AI enhances the platform: it matches learners with optimal tutors, tracks learning progress, and helps tutors create customized lesson plans.

## AI Tutor Matching

Preply's matching algorithm analyzes learner goals, current level, learning style preferences, scheduling constraints, and budget — then surfaces the best-fit tutors from its network. Tutor profiles include video introductions, credentials, teaching methodology, and hundreds of student reviews.

The system prioritizes outcome-relevant factors: a learner preparing for a job interview in Spanish needs a different tutor than someone wanting casual conversational practice or preparing for the DELE exam.

## 50+ Languages

Preply covers 50+ languages. Most widely studied: English, Spanish, French, German, Portuguese, Italian, Chinese, Japanese, and Korean. Uncommon languages (Catalan, Swahili, Persian, Greek, Turkish) are also available with verified native speakers.

## Structured Progress Tracking

Preply's dashboard tracks lessons completed, vocabulary studied, pronunciation improvements, and goal progress. AI generates a learning trajectory and flags when the pace is on or off track for stated goals.

## Business English and Certification Prep

Popular use cases: Business English for corporate professionals, exam preparation (IELTS, TOEFL, DELF, HSK), and academic language requirements. Tutors specialize by these goals, and the matching system surfaces specialists.

## Group Classes

In addition to 1-on-1 tutoring, Preply offers group classes for cost-effective practice. Group sessions at fixed times, typically $10-$15 per class.

## Pricing

Tutors set their own rates: $5-$150/hour. Average is approximately $15-$25/hour for most popular languages. Subscription plans bundle lesson credits at a discount.
