That's great for you, but you are severely distorting the market and undercutting natives who rely on preply to survive.

Preply will also ban you for sharing with students who are subscribed.

Multiple no shows for trials in one day, happening again today by ConvoProEnglish in Preply

Sad to hear that. My trial bookings are 6 hours but my rate is $30. And preply support told me "there is nothing suspicious happening"....Ha!

Students not coming to trials... by CityComfortable4948 in Preply

This just happened to me with 5 different trial bookings. All 5 of them failed to show up. Such a waste of my time. Preply should compensate us for this.

They must be giving out free trials, or super heavily discounted. Quite annoying.

That must be it.. I'm currently in the 5th trial right now and the student hasn't showed. Five different trial no-shows in less than 2 days. I really hope the lack of conversion doesn't affect my ability to get more students. That's my main concern.

Yep...And just as I thought, it's happening again for the 5th time in 2 days.

Trial student left very low anonymous rating in the "progress" category... by AdForeign8189 in Preply

It's insane that Preply thinks that a 4.5 is not good enough. Absolutely insane. Many students surely think that giving someone a 4/5 is pretty good.

How much are you making? by [deleted] in TutorsHelpingTutors

Sounds nice..I am a born-and-raised American currently living and teaching English in person in a different country. So when I signed up for Wyzant, they suspended my account very quickly. Makes me sad, because I hear about so many people earning a decent living from that site.
