I was looking for a Spanish tutor for my daughter and found Apprentus through a Google search. I am so happy I did! The website is very intuitive and I was able to learn about multiple potential tutors via profiles, “about me” sections, and reviews. It allowed me to first make contact and notifies me when I have a message in my inbox. I loved our first choice (shout out to Nouhaila if you’re looking for a Spanish tutor!) so much I immediately booked a 10 pack of lessons. Scheduling those lessons are simple and completely flexible according to our personal schedules. Highly recommend!

Excellent Platform for Tutors

Apprentus is a great platform for a Math tutor and easy to use. I've found several students through here over the past 3 years. Their support team responds quickly as well in case of any issues. Highly recommended!

Teacher Communication & Support

Teacher Communication & Support

Unfortunately, our experience with Thelma and Apprentus has been disappointing. We completed only one lesson, and communication stopped afterward. We scheduled several additional lessons, but each time we joined through the provided link, no instructor attended.

I contacted Thelma through Apprentus and the phone number listed on her profile but received no response. I also reached out to chat support, which was unable to resolve the issue.

I believe I paid for 10 classes but received only one. I still do not have clear instructions on how to obtain a refund for the unused lessons. The lack of communication and support has left me hesitant to purchase additional classes through Apprentus.

Apprentus found us a great tutor named Ollie. He was able to understand the difficulties my daughter was experiencing studying maths and really helped her to get the grade she needed on her IGCSE.
Thank you apprentus and thank you Ollie.

Bait and switch

This platform is a classic bait and switch operation.

You only discover that there's a "membership" once you're about to book what you think is one lesson. The only other options are bundles of 5 or 10 lessons, the "membership" magically disappears once you get the bundles. This removes flexibility for the learner and locks in an important amount into the platform up front.

But not to worry, they have a satisfaction guarantee right? No. The membership is only the first step of the deceit. Apprentus advertises a "good fit instuctor guarantee" and a "refund". But in fact, Apprentus only refunds "Apprentus Credits", not real money. But you won't find that written anywhere. You have to ask customer service to find that out.

They are free to choose their business model, but I find such practices unacceptable, dishonest, and anti-consumer.

Honest review

Explains to me different ways in which to solve the same equations and makes me think before doing calculations. Asks for study material few days beforehand to prepare for the lesson and encouraging extra help anytime. Very interesting person and really friendly and welcoming too, always engaging in conversations. Thanks for the help!😁

five stars :)

with Apprentus everything has been clear and straightforward. All good! Every now and then I get a new request from this platform, so it seems they are doing their marketing right. Totally recommend for both teachers and students :)

Their platform is quite easy to use

Their platform is quite easy to use. I wanted to find an online one on one dance instructor, and my search was quite seamless. It's been 2 weeks of me practicing with my instructor, and the communication on Apprentus has been very seamless

Unserious site

While searching for a teacher I stumbled across this website. After navigating the website I noticed some weird things though.

1. There are fake profiles quite regularly. It is obvious from the profile picture that it's not the face of the person. Reverse image search can confirm this and also sometimes it's just a picture of an influencer or similar. These profiles still have the checkmark next to the name which is an indicator that they are not properly checked.

2. There is no option to directly report profiles and the only way seems to be to write an email.

3. The writing of Imprint/Terms & Privacy is rather bad and also very inconsistent across the other national sites (apprentus.fr, apprentus.at, etc.)

4. The website seems to not be maintained regularly

I would be careful with the offers on this site and I would recommend not signing up directly with email and password, who knows how well they store personal data..

Surprise membership fee

It is a terrible model for a company to spring a €40 "membership fee" at checkout. Really?! Along with a supposed, buy a pack and save message. I just went back on the site from the beginning to make sure that I didn't miss this message along the way, but no, they seriously waste your time looking through teacher profiles with a posted rate to then tack a fee at checkout. It's annoying and dishonest. I would have considered a membership fee, but as a moral stance, now I can't sign up.

Great experience with a wonderful teacher

It was a pleasure having Joy teach my son Chinese. As we haven't had the opportunity to use the language much, Joy was patient and made learning the new language fun. She was very patient and well prepared with the necessary materials. Thank you very much.

The Best Vietnamese Teacher in Da Nang! 🇻🇳✨

The Best Vietnamese Teacher in Da Nang! 🇻🇳✨

If you are looking for a Vietnamese teacher who is not only highly professional but also incredibly warm-hearted, passionate, and fun to work with, you absolutely have to book a lesson with Trinh!

Learning a difficult language like Vietnamese can be intimidating, but Trinh has a unique way of making you feel comfortable from the very first second. She tailors the lessons perfectly to your needs, breaks down the pronunciation in a way that actually makes sense, and brings so much positive energy into the room.

We even went out for dinner after our lesson today, and she genuinely cares about her students and their progress. If you are an expat, a digital nomad, or just traveling through Da Nang and want to connect with the local culture, do yourself a favor and reach out to her directly. 10/10 recommendation—thank you so much, Trinh, for this amazing experience! 🙏🚀

It’s a scam platform

Very disappointing experience. There is no transparency in the pricing: the price shown on the teacher’s profile was completely different from the price during booking - more than twice as much.

The teacher was unprofessional, stopped responding to my questions about the price, and did not show up for the agreed lesson, even though I had already booked the court myself.

The whole experience felt misleading and unreliable. I am honestly wondering whether there are real, verified teachers behind this platform. I cannot recommend Apprentus.

Misleading Pricing and Non-Transparent Booking Structure

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 much less clear. Extra membership or platform fees are added, and currency differences can make the price feel different from what was shown on the profile.

The booking process also feels restrictive. I wanted to book only a few focused tutoring sessions, but the platform made it difficult to clearly reserve exactly what I needed without extra costs or package structures.

For students or anyone working with a strict budget, this creates unnecessary stress. You only understand the real cost once you are already deep into the booking process.

The teachers themselves may be good, but the platform should show the full final price earlier and make short, flexible bookings much clearer.
