The main issue with Apprentus is the lack of pricing transparency. At first, a teacher’s profile shows a clear hourly rate, but once you start the booking process, the final price becomes muc... See more

I just had my second lesson with Phillip, my English teacher. I am delighted to have found such a good teacher on Apprentus and it was not easy for me at 77 years old! I can practice my school English... See more

Not great, not terrible

It's a good platform for finding students if you want to teach in any field as a freelancer. The payment policy is very good, because if a student cancels a lesson too late, you can get full refund for it. However, they charge students 20% extra from the price set by a teacher. So if I set 30 € for a lesson, students will see the price 36 €. It makes it more difficult to find students if they have to pay more. Then I'm forced to go down with the price and do the compromise. The bad thing is, Apprentus doesn't pay any taxes for me, so I still have the tax duty. Charging so much just for intermediation is too much. If it was 10%, it would be okay. It's better to find students outside of the platform, in Facebook groups or different platforms.

Great Experience !

My experience with Apprentus was great mainly thanks to the easy communication between the teachers and the students. It is a very secure site, you can be sure that your personal details will not be in danger. Apprentus is simple to use and practical. In summary, if you are either willing to learn or willing to teach, Apprentus can help you do both in great and secure conditions.
Recommend!

Perfect platform for teachers

I've been using Apprentus as a teacher, it's great! I get always new requests. The communication and schedule functions are great and Apprentus takes care of the payments, so you don't have to do anything about that. Overall a good experience with Apprentus.

Convenient way to find a teacher

It was easy to find a suitable teacher for my daughter on Apprentus. I liked especially that I did not have to pay to get in contact with the possible teachers, I only paid for the lessons my child took. Everything ran smoothly and was easily understandable.

Great platform for teachers

I've been using Apprentus as a tutor for about two years now, it's great! I give three lessons a week currently and get a new request every once in a while. The communication and schedule functions are great and Apprentus takes care of the payments, so you don't have to do anything about that. The fee for the student is also not that big I think. Overall a good experience with Apprentus.

Excellent!

I have been a bilingual teacher on this platform for the past few months and cannot be more grateful for how fair and easy it is to have complete control over my scheduling, students, and rates. This platform really focuses on providing the best benefits for both teachers and students.

Apprentus was new to me when I first…

Apprentus was new to me when I first started looking for Spanish lessons. I selected some favorit teachers and messaged one or two. Shortly after I had bought the offer of 5 lessons and had lessons booked, great!
But then it didn't seem to work out, with the actual online meeting it turned out that the teacher and me where not a great match. I was a bit uncomfortable and preferred to cancel these lessons again. After a little contact with Apprentus team it was al taken care of quick, refunded quick aswell.
Then Apprentus team offered me a day later to help me find the right teacher.
I said, sure why not, and it worked out great! I have had 3 lessons now with the new teacher and I think I will continue lessons for a while. Generally good service from Apprentus! 👍

Requests stopped suddenly

I had new requests for students every month and it stopped 3 years ago. Not one single student signed up. The admins say they can’t understand but I am %100 sure that something happened there and I am being treated very unfair!!!

Reply from Apprentus

Hello Yalci,

It is with concern that we read your review. While we ensure that potential students can find you through our platform, their decision to contact you and book your class is entirely their choice and not something Apprentus controls.

As a marketplace, our role is to connect individuals seeking teaching services with teachers offering them. While we strive to provide equal opportunities for all teachers, there are factors beyond our control—such as student preferences, level of commitment, or regional demand—that can influence outcomes.

It’s common for students to contact multiple teachers simultaneously and ultimately choose someone they feel suits their needs better. Others may lose interest or decide not to proceed with lessons. This doesn’t mean your class isn’t valuable; rather, it reflects the unpredictable nature of the teaching marketplace.

We’ve worked hard to implement improvements over the years to help teachers connect with students and grow their earnings. With your account reactivated, we’d be happy to share tips and strategies to boost your visibility and attract more serious inquiries.

We kindly ask you to reconsider your negative review, as we believe it is unfair and doesn’t accurately reflect the role of our platform. While we understand your frustration, an instance of bad luck shouldn’t overshadow the support and services we provide to help teachers succeed.

We are here to support you and are confident that with the right approach, you can achieve better results. Please don’t hesitate to reach out—we’re happy to assist you in any way we can.

Best regards,
Apprentus Team
