When withdrawing money from Preply, do the options they have take a percentage or charge fees? For example, I understand Paypal charge a fee if a payment is made for 'goods or services' but not for 'friends and family'.

I would recommend looking at Wise.com for possibly reducing possible fees when getting paid. Here is a link to register: wise.com/invite/dic/martins3408. Wise is very competitive compared to PayPal.

Wise has best rates for Preply!

You're a really fantastic teacher. I've been teaching on Cambly for 2years and haven't bothered to upskill myself for a long time. After watching your videos I've decided to become a more knowledgeable teacher and aim for a higher wage! All the best :)

Thank you, that was helpful

Thank you so much!

Thanks Tara for you comment and I am so pleased you found this helpful. 😀

Great tips Martin, especially for new teachers! What I usually do is rate higher the classes that need more preparation. For example, when I teach Business English I cannot charge as much as I charge for general English. I need more time to prepare the material and the activities for business people.

Those are some wonderful tips!

What do you think are the most important aspects of setting your hourly rate for online tutoring? Let me know your thoughts in the comments.

Great video. I'm sorry to ask this here but how do you upload a ppt to Preply? Thanks

That's a great question - perhaps worthy of a future video. You can upload the PPT to the whiteboard or you could share your screen to potential students of the PPT. I shall make a video soon to help answer this question, so keep an eye out! 😊

Thank you for your help! What would you recommend as a base rate for someone like me that has ZERO teaching experience but is 1) a native English speaker, 2) hold a bachelors degree in business marketing (we also focused on business communication), 3) has a TEFL Certificate and, 4) a TEYL Certificate (young learners). I am eager to begin and incorporate various external resources.

A really interesting question and quite a bit to unpack. I think a video answering this question would be more helpful to those in a similar situation but in short I think you should start your hourly rate at $15 per hour. Once you have gained 100 hours of teaching experience on Preply raise it to $20 per hour. Think about what you want to achieve and where you want to be.
