Definitely recommend

I like the feature of choosing a tutor based on common interests. It adds an exciting dimension to our conversations, making the lessons far from the usual boring study sessions. I've found a teacher with whom I genuinely enjoy communicating, and now I'm not just learning the language but also engaging in discussions on my favorite topics.

Poor pay, glitchy platform, patronising format that presumes tutors are not professional adults. Good tutors stay away!

The payment is well less than minimum wage in many countries, especially native English speaking countries, and totally inflexible (tutors with more experience and higher qualifications paid exactly the same as those with no teaching experience. The lesson platform is clunky and glitches often during lessons. Tutors get their profiles blocked for not "reading" every message (i.e. opening app and opening message, not reading previews) within 24 hours, even if the message was just a closing "sure thanks" or similar. Trying to withdraw cash earned is a nightmare. Support staff respond promptly, but act more like police enforcement to wrangle misbehaving children rather than support staff working with professional adults. If you are an experienced professional, stay away. Not worth your time

Dear Kristen!

Thank you for sharing your feedback! We’re really sorry you faced technical issues on our platform. We’re striving to provide the most compelling features for teaching & learning. We hope you’ve shared more details about the issues with our support team so we can improve the platform.

As to the rates, we understand your frustration. However, we hope you’ve read about our earning system: the more lessons a tutor has, the higher rate they receive. In addition, we have bonuses and tips for tutors. At LiveXP, we give chances to everyone to start their teaching career.

Please, also be informed that tutors’ accounts don’t get blocked if they have unread messages. Their accounts can be hidden from students till the message is opened. For us, it is essential to have active tutors on the platform who will be able to attend lessons or answer messages from students. Just keep your profile active and updated.

As to the withdrawal process, we have instructions and requirements that need to be followed to submit a withdrawal request. Everything is for the safety of our tutors. We’re sorry you didn’t find the most convenient withdrawal methods on our platform.

We hope you will give LiveXP another chance and find great students there!

Don’t waste your time

Support is beyond bad. Find a different platform students and teachers, this LiveXP is not good and is on its way to being shut down if they continue to treat students and teachers like euro signs. Sad stuff.

Evidently not a transparent platform.

I am looking the tutor platform as a consumer, but I do not think it is a good choice.
Reasons
- price details are hidden. I could not understand how I can make a decision without information about price.
- subscription model. Subscription model is applicable when subject of subscribing is uncountable - it could be time or storage space or some service. What is the reason in subscription for 8 lesson? isn't it the same as "buy 8 lessons" - pay as you go model with advance payment. But pay as you go is flexible, whereas subscription is not convenient at all if student is sick, has a trip or some other similar circumstances.

Dear Sergii,

We are sorry you found it challenging to see our prices! We appreciate your feedback and would like to address your concerns.Regarding pricing, our subscription plans have flexible prices since students choose the number of lessons per week, their length, and the subscription period. To find the best plan, you need to click “Subscribe” at the top of your page. It will lead you to the sign-up form and then a price builder. With these easy steps, you’ll see the overall cost of your subscription plan and the cost per lesson.

Our subscription grants access to all of our tutors and languages and ensures that the price remains the same for students, regardless of which tutor or language they choose. Within one subscription, you can learn with one or several tutors simultaneously or change them anytime. It also provides access to various features, such as a dictionary, lesson notes, and whiteboard, to name a few.

We want you to know that our subscription can be canceled at any time, and if you cannot take lessons at a certain point, they will not expire and will be available on your account for up to a year. We hope this information clarifies any questions you may have had, and we’d like to invite you to give our platform another try. Please, feel free to contact our Support Team if you have any further concerns.

Sincerely,
LiveXP Team

Unfortunately I got scammed with this website as a tutor. They didn't pay my money and didn't answer my messages relating the funds.

Hello!
We’re really sorry to hear about your experience and we’d like to check your case to make sure there’s no misunderstanding between us. Could you please email us at support@livexp.com and provide more details?

There are 3 main reasons why tutors may find it difficult to receive the money they’ve earned:
1) a tutor provided incorrect withdrawal details
2) a tutor was blocked due to violating LiveXP policies
3) a tutor has an issue with their PayPal/Payoneer/bank account
Whichever the reason, we’re waiting for your email to further investigate your case and ensure you get paid as soon as possible!

Not reliable!

I have the impression they’re not checking the teachers who are registering, a teacher claiming to be a “native English speaker” making 3 mistakes in one sentence; an Italian teacher not knowing the plural of compound forms!
I contacted the customer service and I’ve been answered “you don’t have to be on this platform if you don’t want to learn a language!” instead of saying “thank you, we’ll start an investigation!”
I would not book any lessons with them even for free!

We appreciate your feedback, and we totally support the idea that accurate information and high level of language proficiency are critical to be displayed in a tutor’s introduction video. That’s why our Moderation team works hard to revise tutors’ profiles daily and make sure every tutor’s card appearing on the platform corresponds to our Profile Setup Guidelines.

If you notice any low-quality tutor profiles, we encourage you to report them to the Support team so that we can check their performance and professionalism. We also guarantee 100% return of the money paid for low-quality lessons if students get back to us within the deadline and share their concerns regarding the quality of the lesson and the tutor.
