How was your experience increasing prices and joining Corporate Tutor?
Hi everyone 😊
I wanted to ask about two things as a relatively newer tutor on Preply.
First: how is the Corporate Tutor program? Has it helped you get significantly more students or more stable bookings? What has your experience been like overall?
Second: I’d really appreciate advice about pricing and visibility on the platform.
It took me around 2 months to get my first student, but now I have around 5–6 active students. The issue is that this still only gives me around 6–8 lessons per week maximum (sometimes less).
I started at $15.50/hour, then increased to $19, and now I’m at $22. Since increasing to $22, I haven’t received any new students in about a month or so.
For tutors who successfully increased their prices:
- Did bookings slow down temporarily at first?
- Did you notice certain metrics affecting visibility more than others?
- Is there anything specific that helped you appear more in search results?
- Did updating your intro video/profile help significantly?
- At what point did higher pricing start feeling sustainable?
I’d really appreciate any honest advice or experiences from tutors who have gone through this stage already 😊
