Frequently asked questions

What is the best online tutoring platform?

It depends on your goal. For languages, Preply and italki are the most popular marketplaces; for school subjects and test prep in the US, Wyzant and Varsity Tutors lead; and Superprof offers the widest subject range globally. Use our ranked lists to compare platforms by subject, price and country.

How much does online tutoring cost?

Most marketplaces let tutors set their own rates, so prices vary widely — roughly $10-25 per hour for language conversation, about $35-65 per hour for academic tutoring in the US, and more for specialist or test-prep tutors. On-demand homework-help apps and subscriptions are often cheaper per session.

Which platform is best for learning a language?

Preply and italki are the largest 1-on-1 language marketplaces; Cambly and Engoo focus on on-demand English conversation; and Lingoda and Busuu Live run structured live group classes. See our Best Language Tutoring Marketplaces list to compare them.

What is the best platform to teach on and earn?

Open marketplaces like Wyzant, Preply and Superprof let you set your own rates, while on-demand services like Cambly and Engoo pay a fixed per-minute rate with light onboarding. See our Best Platforms to Become an Online Tutor list and the guide on how tutoring platform fees work.

Are online tutoring platforms as good as in-person tutoring?

For most subjects — languages, coding and academic help — online tutoring is comparable and usually cheaper, more flexible, and offers a far wider choice of tutors. In-person can still suit very young children or hands-on subjects, and many platforms offer both.
